Hey, your doing a heck of a lot better than me. The longest I went while trying to quit was about 10 hours. Good luck to you. I mean that, dont smoke! Lots of gum and lollypops work from what I've heard.

Good luck with that. I've tried, more than once, in the past to give it up. Hasn't really worked so well, seeing as I still smoke. I've heard that after the first week or so the cravings will decrease. I suppose it's like any addiction, it needs time to break the cycle. The key is to stick with it and not give in to the temptation. But, I know it's difficult. I managed to go 2 months and then gave in again, wish I could have just stayed quit. :\

I have tried to quit several times, and have always failed. I wish you the best of luck. Dont get sucked up into the market of quit smoking aids, they are a waste of time and money. They dont really work.
