23 days smoke free. I was a casual / light smoker for 3 years. I mainly smoked in office with colleagues or to take a break from work. I have stopped in the past but the habit comes back. This is the longest I have gone without a puff since I started smoking. I have been going to work regularly but not smoked. Part of the reason is that most people are fasting in Ramadan and no one smokes. I hope to be able to continue the run...

thanks everyone. I was really craving for a puff the other day and all the positive energy from the group really helped me go along. I have been running 3-4 times a week, and its helping. 30 mins of running gives a rush which is rather similar similar to a smoke on a cold grey morning. I am gonna treat my self after Ramadan, after I finish one month of smoke free.
