Boom. Didn't think I'd get this far.
W00t!

Good for you. 21 yrs today 05-14-2017 alcohol free!Sorry, guys, I've been absent from TRF for a few days.
So, the other day, I passed my 750th cigarette not smoked. I've also passed the $400 saved mark.
It has gotten much much easier. I still kind of want one. But I don't think about it all the time. It's mainly certain times - breaks at work (the worst. What do I do with my time??), when I've got dinner on the stove and I'm waiting for it to cook (which was one of my favorites of the day). Still, the bad part is over.
And last week I added beer to the list. I'm one of those guys who likes beer with every dinner, and it was getting out of hand. So, I decided to go 1990's Cookie Monster on this - beer is a sometimes food.
I'm taking time off from all alcohol until later this month. I imagine I'll go for a few beers with some folks I meet at NARCON. Till then, I'm having sparkling water with lemon juice in the evenings. I need something which isn't just water, but which doesn't have caffeine (I usually have to get up at 3:30 a.m. for work). Not too hard, unless I'm having something spicy for dinner.
And I just checked my app - just passed my 800th cigarette not smoked, and almost up to $425 saved.

And 20d of time to work on 'em!Fantastic, way to hang in there!
You've saved enough for an L1, L2, and tracking setup!
Just a quick update: Passed the 5000 mark today
6,570 cigarettes...
$3,482.10...
Nearly four grams of nicotine...
These are the wasteful things I've managed to do away with in the last year.
For anybody who joined me last year I hope you managed to keep it up. If not, hey, it's a new year and tomorrow morning is a new day.
I've always kind of been a weak-willed person. I have a hard time stopping doing something I like. And, boy, did I like cigarettes! But if I'm able to quit smoking by choice, I have to believe it's possible for people to change, at least a little bit.
Happy New Year, folks!
