Smoke Free

I have been smoke free - nicotine free - since Oct 2010. I quit cold turkey!!!

Forgot to add - about three months after I quit, I coughed up crap. BUT I worked out doing cardio only - which helped. After three months and no more coughing - I could swin underwater 25 meters holding my breath.

I don't miss it, I never will and never light up again!

    Congrats! I've been smoke free since February 2011 using a 9-week program of Chantix. It was harder the second time around, but it took this time!
