My dad quit when I was 12, cold turkey, just like you, from 1 - 2 packs a day... he quit because I asked him to. That was the biggest love sacrifice I ever remember, and there were many.Joannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17873298945787016849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449342782725556560.post-45516889890869099862008-11-07T19:11:00.000-06:002008-11-07T19:11:00.000-06:00GREAT JOB, Dan.

Around that date, I wrote about quitting, and I believe I mentioned then that there are times that I catch a whiff of smoke, and it's almost a visceral craving...but as quick as it comes, it's gone just as quickly. I can now honestly say that I don't miss it at all. <BR/><BR/>When I wrote that entry, one of my friends commented that with quitting, I had probably saved my own life. I hope you appreciate the comment as well, and realize that you did the same.<BR/><BR/>Love, BethBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149068921334726430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449342782725556560.post-30409929102377489322008-11-07T17:37:00.000-06:002008-11-07T17:37:00.000-06:00Congrats on your milestone.

Between the smell, the non-smokers and my honest desire not to contract lung cancer, I think I've beat it this time. Congrats on two years without a cigarette. I can appreciate the accomplishment this goal is. :)Estelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14093391384545252774noreply@blogger.com
