It's easier to do than you think... The people who say how hard it is to quit are....smokers. Here ,there is a whole community of members who HAVE QUIT, and will testify to the fact that it is doable, and even gets to the point of being enjoyable ... not "hard" :)
A few benefits of quitting:
I feel SO much better... Exspecially in the morning...it's amazing how bad hot smoke in your lungs all day long makes you feel. :(
Not only do I feel better, but I smell great! :p I smell good, my cars smell good...my hair (what's left of it) smells good...my clothes smell good....even my garage smells better...(that is where I banished myself to smoke in shame).. AND everyone I know has noticed. If you think your fooling anyone.... Your not, the smell gives you away!
You have NO IDEA of how much time you waste smoking. Everything I did... Or planned to do had time planned in where I could sneak away every 1/2 hr or so to burn a cigarette....those "few minutes" really add up in a days time.
And the money saved is just ridiculous... Not just the cost of the cigarettes themselves (which by the way is a staggering amount), but I also save every month on the cost of my health insurance because I am a non-smoker, also save money from Co-pays and prescriptions from the Drs. visits since I no longer seem to catch as many colds, flu, or other upper respiratory illness...all those savings added up has allowed me to spend a week in Florida on the beach during winter last year, and have another week booked and paid for again this Feb. and then a week with my kids in Outer Banks NC. In June...... Those were things I never thought possible just a few years ago because the money just wasn't there....
Now I know it was... I just chose to spend it killing myself by smoking because quitting was "too hard"... Now I spend my money living and couldn't be happier!
Today is a great day to throw away anything you have that is related to smoking and make the commitment to enjoy living! .. It's so easy to do!!!
