Nice job, Nancy! You were one of crew that really supported me early on over at QSMB- I’m so glad you’re thriving and celebrating every day! -L4L

Hey newbies & lurkers & old phartes... No spoilers I promise… if you watch The Bear Season 4 Episode 10 has some very strong smoking triggers. The whole show does but this episode even got this 2016 Buttkicker for just a millisecond. N.O.P.E.! L4L

Noooo!!! My fellow 2016 Buttkicker! Jilly Bean! This is a hard reality to face. Newbies- go find her words of encouragement. Her air cigs (aka pack of JACs - Jillar’s air cigs). Saved and motivated MANY quits. @doreensfree thanks for letting The Train know. Smoking sucks. Big Tobacco and COPD. RIP with ALL THE BUNNIES Jillar!

Congratulations on 11 smokefree years @BAT!!

I enjoy ending a year not smoking and starting another year not smoking.

I was waiting for the skillet!

Welcome back Stewbum! Post here BEFORE the temptation takes over! We can steer you to safety. Not harshing you by any means Lord knows I didn’t quit the first, second, tenth time around!! Glad you’re back. Get it done in 2025!!!

Woo-hoo! 10 years is amazing!

@Kdad- welcome back!!! I remember you! Divorce sucks. I’m headed there too. So glad you found your way back here. You know the drill (obviously bc YOU ROCK posting SOS). We are here. So are you! Happy New Year! You got this- if you don’t, we’ve got you!! NOPE!

Congratulations NSJ! I miss your presence here! So glad to celebrate #7 with you!

Hello and welcome aboard! You’ll find lots of support and motivation here. Congratulations on taking the steps to a better and healthier you. If you feel your quit is in jeopardy- post a SOS on the SOS thread and folks will come to help keep your precious quit in tact. The games section here is a great way to pass the time and think about stuff other than smoking! Again, welcome. Glad you’re here! -Lust4Life

It is the generic for Chantix. This makes me think Chantix is now off patent. Lower costs follow when that happens!Cost was a likely deterrent for many. This barrier is now lifted, hopefully! —L4L

Congratulations on 8 years of smobriety Hope2Nope! I remember when our quits were new and fragile. Look at us now!

1. Smoke free for 8 years and 3 weeks 2. Today I’m going to do a few chores I want to get off my list and then relax!

Thanks All! I was focused on Hurricane Helene (faired OK thankfully) and my anniversary came & went. Pretty nice not worrying about running out of cigs during a natural disaster. Plenty of other things to worry about! Being a quitter never gets old. I enjoy it and enjoy paying it forward as others did for me! Yep to NOPE!

Early on- one of the greatest motivations for keeping my quit was the thought of having to quit all over again.
