Great decision to quit while you are still young and your body can rehabilitate itself from the damage smoking does. Dig in and remain steadfast in your resolve to quit and stay quit. Arm yourself with as much knowledge about nicotine addiction as you can - plenty of stuff here to help you in that regard. Read old posts and the pinned stuff at the top of the Quit Smoking discussion page. There's even a games page here to help keep you distracted when those cravings come calling. Stay close to this site because there's lots of other quitters just like you that can help you along.

Nope!

^^^ I agree that the physical and mental process of actually making that pledge daily, even if it's just silently to yourself, is what sets up the motivation to stay smoke free for that day with many folks. Of course it doesn't mean anything if a person doesn't follow though on it but it's like making a promise to someone else about something. Those don't mean anything either if they aren't kept but speaking the words to start off with defines what kind of a person you are based on the end results and I think most folk want to be seen as decent people who are true to their word. Making the pledge daily certainly doesn't hurt anyone but the person making it if it isn't followed up on.

You don't look well
