Yes, big congrats to all the quitters. I quit ~20 years ago after smoking for 4 or 5 years. At first, the smell of a cigarette would make me want one, but now the smell makes me glad I quit.
Way to go, BK!

Just think how much money you will be saving not buying a carton of smokes now.

Wow, thats cheap! 
A Pack of 25 Cigs here in Canada is over $12.00/ea right now... it was definately expensive.

excellent news that you quit. You will be amazed when you go someplace where there is lots of smoking going on and realize you used to smell like that.
My father, mother, brother and sister all smoked and now everyone has quit except for my sister. everyone feels better and smells better too. i never smoked because i was too cheap and wanted my money for myself.:lol:

Don't look back, no matter how badly you want one.
I read this article after quitting. Had I known about it sooner, I would have stopped sooner.

You guys let me know how the chantix works. I quit smoking cigarettes 10 years ago but have since gotten hooked on cigars. I need to get off them.
Keep it up! I quit about 21 years ago.
Every time I felt like I wanted a cigarette I would just say to myself, "You just went 4 days without smoking, you can surely do another 4 days" Then after 8 days I would say, You went 8 days you can go another 8 days" etc.
I just kept forcing myself to continue to go without smoking just a little longer and when I could do that, I continued to push it further.
Once you get past 2 weeks it tends to get easier, however you will still have cravings for as long as 5 years....Just resist the temptation. If you can stop for 1 year, you can go another year etc,,,,,
Keep it going, you'lll be over the hardest part before you know it.
