Boo that’s great way to use your found. Only. I live in Florida no basements here. But I feel the same way I want to start working out too. So personal trainer for now. And perhaps a home gym in the future!

Yes keeping busy helps!

Matt sorry about your relapse. You have to get rid of all your cigarettes ashtray is anything that has to do with smoking so that you can be successful on this next quit. I changed the way I drink my coffee in the morning and each time I think about a smoke I tell myself I don’t smoke and I say it out loud. Sounds silly but it has helped. After all I’m going to have to re-condition my brain if I’m going to make this quit stick.

Isn’t it nice to share all the things we are doing with our new found money. I recently paid my car off so now I’m putting that car payment dollar amount in savings each month. Since I got use to not having it.

Martin I can’t hurt. Lord knows our ancestors used all kinds of things to heal themselves. I love tomatoes. I eat them a lot.

Yes smoking is so bad for your teeth. That’s a great way to spend your $$. I had my teeth fixed years ago. I had poor enamel.

Nope I DON’T SMOKE!!

Hi everyone! So I have decided to use my saved money to get a personal trainer a couple of times a week. At almost 55 and 2 herniated disc, type 1 diabetes I don’t know where to start with a safe workout Routine. Since I’m making the decision to get healthy by not smoking I need to also make a plan to get in shape. I know myself and I need to also be held accountable. Otherwise I will just find a reason not to workout! So what is everyone esle doing with there new found money?

Well for me I started taking Chantix. I didn’t pick a start date, I just let the Chantix start to work about 3 week after I started it I smoked 2 drags of a cigarette and put it out. I haven’t had one since. But I still thinking about smoking all the time. I tell myself out loud I don’t smoke! Now I’m to the point where I forget to take my Chantix. It does get easier with time. I will say I was keeping myself in withdrawals for the first few weeks. The only downside to the Chantix for me. You are going cold turkey so you won’t have that. But this is where this forum helps someone told me I was keeping myself in withdrawal. And I was sick for 3 weeks. So I just put that stick out and didn’t look back. Stay close to the forum. Everyone here is so supportive. It really can make all the difference. One day at a time.

Nope, nope, and nope!

This seems fitting

-hellkatbaby/ sorry to hear about what you are having to go though. You have such a positive attitude. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

Yay go Linda! Congrats to you! Quitting is no easy task. It’s not for sissies. Though I don’t say much about it some days are very hard for me. I spend much of my time on her reading other peoples stories. They give me the power to not walk out to the garage and smoke. So thank you for sharing your quit so others can be Inspired and know that they’re not alone and that some of the things they’re going through each and every quiter has gone through!

Jo pardon my ignorance but what is ashes season?

Welcome Matt i’m Just over 2 weeks in my quit. You will love it here. A lot of great information and helpful people, who all want to see you succeed. Which in this day and age is amazing all by itself.

Nope

Congrats

BKP looks beautiful! Enjoy

Ankush I’m very happy with my quit. I planned for it and waited until our family vacation was over. I didn’t think 7 grandkids 3 of ours kids and their spouses would be a good time to quit. We have a couple of grandsons that are hard to handle. Always into something lol. I started my Chantix the Monday we got back. So I was prepared for this quit. Hope you quit is going good.

Sazerac I think everyone’s denial runs very deep. An addict will, say or do anything to get their fix. Ours just happens to be a legal drug. Every time I am doing something that I would have a cigarette after I say I don’t smoke. And I say it out loud. It seems to be working for me, at least for now. I want to get that mindset instilled in my brain.
