Hi, I am 59 years old and have not smoked since March 2013, almost at my two year anniversary ans all I can say that if I can do it anyone can as I have had many many failed attempts but too be honest I still sometimes miss it but these episodes are becoming less and less. Health was my main reason as I was losing the feelings in my legs. This has now come back and often get a warm feeling in my toes which were always frozen. Do keep going everyone. I have also saved over 5k too.
