It's been roughly 518 days or 1 year 5 months and 28 days since my last smoke. I've had many craves along the way but everyone one of them was easily manageable. I can be done.

Its been 8 months and 23 days, it can be done. I have had many craves but finally getting past them. It just takes time, I smoked along time so it takes a commitment to NOPE!!!

NOPE

Join me in showing it can be done. Just say how many days it's been since you had even one puff/chew of any tobacco product. 25 glorious days - I've had many hundreds of cravings, but not one of them twisted my arm, put my head in a vice, or used a taser on me.

Nope...never?

G’day A week to go and it’s 6 years since I smoked. Somewhere in that first year my mind slipped that gear and I changed from being a smoker to a non smoker. I celebrate each morning with a NOPE pledge then get on with the important task of living life..........

Sporting approx 234 awesome days of freedom!!

NOPE

Nope.

NOPE!

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

G’day NOPE .....Not One Puff Ever.... (replace Ever with Min,Hour, Day as required)

2400ish days, which is also about how long the first few months felt to me. Big congrats on your first 25 and for realizing so soon what a glorious achievement each day is!

NOPE…

NOPE!

Almost 7 years (next month). It took a while but I finally came to the realization of how unhealthy I was physically and mentally having my life revolve around nicotine addiction. So glad I quit.

Congratulations Justin ... Heres a pat on the back from me ... Over 8 years Smoke Free for me

Here's mine PS. @JustinHoot99, have you considered adding a ticker to your signature so you too can easily see all the time, money and cigarettes NOT smoked add up?

50 hours. Weird. Had a nice day out shopping. Hungry though. Just going to forgive myself for my bad food choices until day three is over!

G’day NOPE .....Not One Puff Ever.... (replace Ever with Min,Hour, Day as required)

NOPE

NOPE…

NOPE!

NOPE 20 Years today.

NOPE

Nope!!!

White water kayaking sounds like a fun workout! Today was my long bike ride and banged out 50 miles in 3 hours- just over 16 mph. It was hot with a headwind last 20 miles luckily I planned and had plenty of water on board

Say hello to my little friend - my new ticker.

If you can do 16 hrs, you can keep going. So glad your back and ready to finally quit.

I'm a bit of a river rat myself. Worked as a raft guide (Ocoee and Nantahala). Did a lot of kayaking. Transitioned to a canoe. Used to travel up to West Virginia every year for Gauley Fest. Had a nice little sing-a-long with a few hundred friends to this one. Good times.

NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NOPE!

I've just got home from work. Weirdly no cravings so far. Just need to find ways to fill those gaps....so having a cup of tea in the sun.

Nope!

Nope!

Thanks for all the support and feedback everyone. Can't wait to mark that new calendar sheet tomorrow.

NOPE…

NOPE!

NOPE!!!!!!

Woohoo,Congratulations @Lust4Life on five years quit now! Its amazing how fast the time flies when we were those newbies counting on each other to make it to our first year quit. So I hope my fellow Butt Kicker that you celebrate you today!

When I quit smoking on Sept 7, I printed a Sept calendar sheet so I could put a red X on something each day I didn't smoke. Today marks 23 days and is the last day of the month. Felt great to have to print out a new sheet for October. Not a month of not smoking yet, but just the action of having to change the calendar felt so good. And taped at the bottom of my calendar is a small sheet that says: "If you quit now... You'll end up right back where you first began. And when you first began, you were desperate to be right where you are now. Keep going." Those red X's remind me of all I would be giving up if I take even one puff.

Welcome back, Sparkles. You are doing a great thing in quitting smoking. You can't do anything about the past so just focus on now. Quitting smoking is the right thing to do and you can do this.

I do not have any support besides this board, I totally get it, the struggle, you have to remember this is for you and about you. Every one else can f... off. Just worry about you! K

Welcome Sparkles, good place to be to start the journey!! Good people and lots of support!!

Welcome back on the Train Sparkles. This place is full of folks that understand where you're at and what you're going through. Grab a seat and stay awhile.

Thanks guys. All done. A couple of cravings when I first got there, but just said nope.

Never give up Kate! The medical and mental health fields are always coming up with new treatments. I am very thankful this has worked for you. You are so brave to share your struggles, which will help others dealing with depression!

Congratulations L4L, 5 years - you're doing so awesome!

Congrats, @Lust4Life, L4L! Celebrate your awesome achievement and KTQ!

Happy 5th birthday to you, Lust4Life!
