Hello Everyone, I am very new to posting in forums, blogs etc. However, I was doing some research and most successful quits were done so with the help of an on-line community. Please bare with me, I am a rookie. A little about me. I am 24 years old and I have been smoking on and off since I was about 16 years of age. Into my 20's I would only smoke about 3 a day. I wouldn't necessarily say I am a heavy smoker however a smoker none the less. . The past year I have been wanting to quit more than any other time in my life. I have cut it down to 1 a day or even 1 a week. However, I can never rid the habit all together. The longest I have gone is 1 month. This was just this past June. I am Now smoke free for two days and plan to follow through. I have attempted to quit multiple times throughout the past year. However, my weakness is stress. Once I feel an ounce of stress or boredom I turn to tobacco. I also fear weight gain. I have some how associated quitting smoking with weight gain, although I am a very active person. (2 hours a day in the gym). My boyfriend, an ex smoker for about 6 years now, was a pack a day smoker and quit. How is it that even though I do not smoke that much or even crave it, I still can't let the habit go?
