I'm going to quit smoking completely. I have cut it down to half so far. Oh and I'm going to try to be nicer to the stupid neighbors. That will be harder than quitting smoking

How about you?

My resolution is also to quit smoking. I also want to become more self-aware and start volunteering at the hospital again. And I need to write more.

ok...we'll quit together. we can BOTH be grumpy

I'm staying away from you guys..

Joy...that's your New year's resolution??? If so...I can tell ya you will fail. I'm like a bad rash that you can't get rid of

So, what plan do you have for quitting? I started thinking about it last summer, have cut down, smoke ultra lights and it is soooo addictive. I bought 2 boxes nicorette gum, licorice root (the real stuff- twigs of the root) now...where's the real motivation. I do enjoy it and play over in my mind what the future might really hold (seen it first hand and know am dumber than dumb to keep at it) but am wondering if you have any tips.
AND I really hope this doesn't turn into a nag thread from people who don't smoke or previous smokers...I feel we know how serious it is and are starting.

I quit smoking 3 months ago. Yeah!! I thought I could never do it. Now I cannot believe all the cigs I consumed.

true, every time I turn around you're there...

Shasta....I couldn't do cold turkey. Every time I tried, my family would buy me a pack because I was so irritable

so I started to slowly cut down. I went down to 4 cigarettes a day now. I take a few puffs then put it out and try to go for a while before I smoke a few more puffs.

that's great daytime so what is your next resolution

Joy...you will NEVER be rid of me there isn't strong enough ointment to get rid of me

Try the e-cig you will never smoke again.

daytime....aren't those expensive?

good thing I kinda like you then...

I tell my sister that she is the boil on the butt of my humanity. I guess I'm yours

No. much cheaper. You buy a kit and that is your cig. I got my kit for about 55.00. Then you buy liquid nicotine to refill. One container is many cartoons worth of cigs. I get mine for about 8.99 per container. The internet has soooooo many electronic cig sites. Some are expensive but not better. I will never buy the Titian 500 again. I switched to a cheaper kit with much better results.

well I wouldn't say you're a boil exactly...

My New Years resolution is to focus more on family and friends. Less focus on work.

Yellowrose go to You Tube type in electronic cigarettes and there are many video's.

No not bad. I got a really nice one. I spent about a bill on it and I got a bunch of stuff, extra filters, a bottle of the liquid nicotine.
Pretty cool actually...
