118 Days and 1,400 cigs NOT SMOKED!!

Feeling good, breathing easy, tasting and smelling everything, and putting on some weight (good thing for skinny me). I've got energy to burn now instead of my money going up in smoke. No more trying to hide a hacking cough or worrying if I smelt like an ashtray. I have my life back. What more could I ask for?

I started my quit determined but very unsure if I had it in me to actually do it after smoking so long. Champix helped alot by reducing the cravings, but it is this forum that has been my lifeline. Reading about other's journeys and being able to reach out for advise and support is what has really kept me going. Huge thanks to everyone!

For those early on in their quits: keep going! It does get easier and it is so worth it.
