Have You Checked Your Ticker Recently?


Recommended Posts

Posted

If you have one of course.

 

I haven't seen my in ages, my goodness I noticed it and it said 27,514 cigs not smoked, 27,514! I mean really! I couldn't imagine smoking one let alone that amount, dear gawd imagine how many I have smoked in my previous life, best not actually.

 

Then I've seen I have not spent over £9,614 on them (thank goodness!) Beggars belief, now at least, that I would even contemplate parting with that amount of cash, on Shiite. I don't need my ticker as I don't give smoking a second thought but I'm going to keep it, just to see what I would have wasted had I not got my head out of my backside, and stopped.

 

Check yours...if you haven't already.

Ticker?

It ain't important.

Just keep on keepin' on.

Easy Peasy

I agree, not important, but a thrill non the less to see.

 

Mine has gone on trips to Tenerife, money very well spent.

Mine is d*mn important to me. It says I'm hours away from having a year clean from a 35+ year addiction.  SUPER important to me.

That's brilliant, only hours away!

 

Mine was important to me too, in my first year so I understand what you mean. I just meant it wasn't my motivator now, so isn't important to me anymore...but will be checking till it gets to the £10.000 mark...self treat time.

The year? Very important.

 

The ticker? An irrelevant raster image file beamed over http.

 

Sarge assures you: at some point you won't give a rats ass about any ticker, it will have been years since you've seen it, the numbers and calculations will be a faded memory, decades gone ... but the important fact will remain - you will still be a nonsmoker, ticker or not.

I'm sure for many of us it kept up on track, in those moments of temptation ...the thought of starting mine over kept me on track, many a time.

 

I will never get rid of mine, far to dam proud of it...that I did it, me, after years of riffing and faffing...I did it.

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.
