One and 3/4 years today

Wow! Came on here today looking for some motivational things to print of for my Mum then thought to look at my quit keeper -

I have been quit for 1 Year, 9 Months, 19 hours, 21 minutes and 28 seconds (638 days). I have saved £2,371.55 by not smoking 9,582 cigarettes. I have saved 1 Month, 2 Days, 6 hours and 30 minutes of my life. My Quit Date: 06/01/2010 21:45

I can't believe its been so long and the amount of cigarettes I would have smoked makes me feel quite ill. I can't say I haven't had the odd drunken slip up but I don't do that any more. I finally feel free and its quite a feeling.

I owe a lot to the lovely people on here so thank you so much. Its quite emotional reading back over my earlier posts and seeing the amazing help I got and how everyone supports each other. I don't get the chance to come on here in my new job so much but I do recommend this place to anyone who talks about quitting.

Jase once told me that if I could feel what the sense of achievement was going to be like I would be more determined and now I know he was right.

To feel this good about not smoking was worth every minute of my emotional rollercoaster of a quit (am a big drama queen ;)). So to anyone else early on their journey, get your head down and power through it, you can do it and its so worth it. Good luck everyone.

Well done, you have gone for so long.

Do you still get urges or are you ok with it now.?
