How many cigarettes I have NOT Smoked

[Nancy]

Almost 10,000...and this is what it looks like:

[JackiMac]

that would create a hell of a smell!,  Makes me shudder looking at the number stacking up on my quit meter xx

[Becca]

It shows almost 15,000 cigs I haven't smoked since I quit in Feb 2013.  That just absolutely boggles my mind.

7,768 cigarettes not smoked in almost 8 months.  $2,774.27 saved.  $11 per day, $83 per week and $332 per month to smoke.  Disgusting how I used to waste my hard earned money.  You can do a lot of things with $332 per month.  Two private music lessons per week for one child is what my smoking can now pay for.

 

Look at the stark contrast between where that money goes to now.  I sit here literally speechless to think of all the benefits that learning music has to a child versus me smoking and shortening my life which hurts my children more than me.  I'm so glad I quit.  I'm so glad my Dr. told me I was an addict and full of shit.  I'm so glad to have found other quitters who understand.  :i-m_so_happy:
