So…how many of you are now singing the Violent Femmes? 🤣

 

I was just deleting and reviewing apps on my handy dandy device.  So many that I don’t use anymore… got to let them go! 

 

I came across one that I hadn’t seen in quite sometime.  It was buried between useless clutter. 
 

This app was once my lifeline.  It is a ticker for smoking cessation.  
 

Once upon a time I opened it compulsively.  How many minutes have I been smoke free?  How many cigarettes have I avoided? How much of my lung and heart health has improved?  FFS is the Nicodemon’s poison out of me yet?  
 

Today I deleted a bunch of apps. 
 

I opened my ticker/counter app.

 

My last cigarette was 4 years 324 days ago.

I haven’t smoked 35,694 cigarettes.

Which means $12,493.19 didn’t go up it smoke. 
 

I’m keeping the app on my phone.

 

Just like I’m keeping my quit!!  
 

Let your numbers grow!

 

When you add it up- you will beam with pride!

Isn't it crazy how we never thought of these numbers when we were smoking?! It still amazes me when I see my numbers too.

I recommend to anyone who hasn't made a ticker to make one. Its so inspirational to see these numbers grow. 

We have easy to follow directions for anyone wishing to add one to their signature: https://www.quittrain.com/topic/15042-creating-a-ticker/

have not started a ticker yet, do not want to focus on the numbers. I know my bank account is happy and my kid appreciates this, Momma don't need new shoes but she can give the kid things. I can't it with me but I can spoil when I want to!

Plus I can take Jillar and Linda to a grab bar, bar.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
