  2. Celebrated with a hot pastrami sandwich, batter-dipped French fries, and a diet coke. At a restaurant with my beloved son whom I only see a couple of times a year. Soon I'll be back home, eating my plant-based, whole foods diet. Thinking about how I want to celebrate one month. Maybe something that won't contribute to weight gain. Nah, that's no fun. Going to work out at the gym when I get back home. Time to make the weight reverse direction.

  5. Congratulations @Octain for being 1 year smoke free! Well done Octain for KTQ for a whole year. A stalwart in the NOPE thread who's brilliant taste in music has helped may relive their youth and rock out a crave. Another one who has been payin' it forward from the very beginning of his quit. Sit back mate, have a drink and enjoy the roast... toasts...and celebrate your year of freedom.

  6. Congratulations on 5 years Bassman! You left the board just a few weeks after I started my quit, so I only knew you briefly, but I did go and read a lot of your content & i was inspired & motivated by your story. I still listen to your quit songs on YouTube from time to time. It was so cool of you to take the time to use your talent to write and record those awesome songs. It shows how passionate you were/are to help others on their journey.

  9. Thanks much.....very much. I browse through here time to time and yes, celebrating my smoke freedom is important to me. Not a single puff in 5 years. I do miss writing the songs as they are just as important to me. Tks much Johnny5 for remembering. I miss many of you.... I have saved over $13,000 USD by quitting, and greatly improved my health. I will hit the big 65 this summer so another smoke free celebrating coming up. You all take care and keep NOPE in your life....Bassman :)

  11. Additional Data Point: While you can never reverse the damage of periodontal disease, it can be halted in its tracks. One day, unexpected and out of the blue, the nice hygeinist lady asked "Has anyone talked with you about ... <erie pause> ... Periodontal Disease ... Mr. The Sarge ?" ... "Uhhhhh ... nope ..." Progressed for 3 years. Had to have the ol' under-the-gumline root planing / deep scraping. Twice. Next up: Surgery. They basically cut the gums away from the jawbone, roll 'em outa the way, and go to town on the teeth roots. Yikes! Fast forward 2 years: Quit smoking. Active Gum Disease all but disappeared. Gums returned to pink, and plump, and healthy. No sign of active disease for the past 5 years. There's still the bone loss and receeded gums ... but it's stable. No change in half a decade. They even quit measuring and reading out the numbers (Sarge wasn't quite as bad - highest of 5 (2,2,4,3,5,4,5 3.3....) ) at every appointment because they were no longer changing progressing. Two changes were made: (1) Flossing twice daily - whether needed or not (previously Sarge only flossed when a hunk o' something was stuck up in there) ... and (2) quitting the cancer-sticks. Dentist could neither confirm nor deny which had a larger benefit, but the two together cinched the deal. Quit smoking, folks. Your future teeth will thank you. Sarge had perfectly sound, healthy, good teeth that would have fallen out of his head by now due to bone loss from the gum disease. Now? Problem solved. Complete remission. No sign of active disease. Sarge is certain he'd be in dentures by now if he hadn't quit. EZPZ PS: Your heart and arteries will love you, too. There's a funky correlation between gum disease and heart disease.

  17. ^^^^^^^Well yeah taking advantage of what the Lido deck has to offer with out a care. I have done dood this and am so happy and grateful. Actually I feel that I could not have done this with out you all. Coming to the site to read and post to others helped me keep my focus and to educate myself and see the experiences of everyone -- this helped me see that this could be done. So thank you all for the support and the kind words above from you all has touched me truly. As to what I am going to do today is take my Son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren out for great meal without worry of the price. As to the money saved I am leaning to a vacation to the Washington wine country and Casino -- just to splurge and have fun -- then with the leftover something for the house. Again -- thank you all for the support -- it really helped!!!!!!!!

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
