if I mentioned it before, but I had a friend who's dad quit smoking, he started chewing on those cinammon sticks (the real ones, looks kinda like a leaf rolled up).  Said it really helped.

Yes, definitely keep up the resistance.  A buddy of mine smoked so much the my truck would wreak of it after he got out, and he never even smoke in it.  he also tried quitting several times, just because than after each of his two kids were born.  What finally got him to quite for good and never go back was seeing his uncle riddled w/lung cancer and die.  He was close to his uncle and said seeing like that was the only reason he needed to quit and every time he has come close to smoking he just looks at a pic of his uncle near the end, and it scares him straight.

One other motivation for you.  My mom started smoking when she was 12(1952), never was more than a pack-a-day at the height of her smoking, and most of the time she would get about 3 drags from a cig, and the rest of the time it just burnt up in the ashtray.  In Oct. of last year she was diagnosed w/small cell lung cancer(short term life expectancy), it can't be cured, only delay death for about 6-12 months w/chemo.  One year tends to be the average, some get 2 and very few have ever seen 5yrs.    We always figured that she would end-up with some early warning signs, before she got cancer, she didn't, even her primary doctors couldn't believe it since they never heard anything wrong with her lungs, it just hit her all at once.

Good luck remaining smoke free.

Bro, I feel your pain, trying to quit myself. But I am doing the smoking less before I drop it completely. And being over seas I have cut back ALOT. Went from almost a pack and a half a day to half pack a day or less. Kinda weird cause it is boring over here  Think it would be the opposite. But if the wife and I quit we are getting a RV.  :biggthumpup:So that's a major incentive to quit 

[crawlerdan]

good job dave!! ive never smoked anything but rubber  but good luck buddy.

you better have a MC bumper soon or ill come down there and kick ya in the noots

[*** YELLER ***]

Well its been roughly a month and a half since I quit smoking and I am proud to report that I have not smoked once  , We had to leave a super bowl party early because someone thought it would be funny to blow smoke in my face  knowing that I just quit and was realy wanting one, so instead of punching him in his smoke ridden "Fing " mouth we left the party  ( for me ) well Im not gonna lie I want one more than I thought I would but I can do it Im a Marine and If I say no  that means no

[fordh8r]

Holy  you have a Booty F  g Hamster?! Really?! 


Yeah, what a jack a$$. He only did that because he's too weak to ever quit. 

Well its been roughly a month and a half since I quit smoking and I am proud to report that I have not smoked once 

You are DA MAN! 

1)   so instead of punching him in his smoke ridden "Fing " mouth ......

2)   I can do it Im a Marine and If I say no  that means no 

My first instinct would have been No.1 Then No.2 Just make No.2 your driving force and winning motto.    Make us proud!

[axled89]

what did it new rings or valve seats.       i quit 3 months ago the hardis thing i think i'v ever done. good luck man.

[Blingn]

dave is it time to call someone that knows someone that knows how to build cement shoes? I am proud of you man. 

[*FFC*]

Dave I'm proud of you.  I've seen how hard it is to quit and I'm to you because I know it's tuff and you're sticking through it.  It was also big of you to walk out of the party rather than puch that in his dirty mouth.  I'm sorry some people think it's funny - it's not. 

Keep up the crazy good efforts! It'll all be worth it in the long run

Shoulda just made him eat it

[brockbuilt85]

Shoulda just made him eat it

[BLACKDOG]

Don't get me wrong, I think smokers get screwed, If you want to smoke, smoke, and if you don't want to, don't.  But to go up to someone tht is trying to quit and pull :bull crap: like that is just f d up.  Its not right, and it sure as hell isn't funny. 


good on ya though Dave, for being strong!

































Still think you shoulda made him eat it.

[fordh8r]

Yeah, I think not "getting some" on that dude was probably harder, as a Marine, than not wanting a cigarette. 


But still.....

[Blingn]

lets kick that guys

[*** YELLER ***]

Well lets just say if my wife hadnt been there my USMC instinct would have been all up in his ass, I looked at her and

Julie  " lets just go it aint worth it, take a deep breath and walk away "
me    " but "
Julie  " lets go "
me    " but "
Julie  " walk away and no one goes to the ER "
me    " but "

and the rest as they say is history....

and I would like to thank a nephew (on the other side of her family) for being such a richard and reminding me that I am a man and he is and will always be a boy 


thaks fer all the kind words gang it realy helps, moral support is huge right now, this aint easy 

[brockbuilt85]
