18 hours-----This sucks !

[Puttingood]

Been 18 hours since I have had a cigarette. Yeah, thats right, I said 18 fuckin hours. Don't sound like long ? Kiss my ass!
That patch is really kicking in now. The wife has left and the animals won't even come around me. Wish that stupid ass blind man would come stumbling up.
My lips are numb and my head is woozy and my heart rate is up. That happens when I take a Viagara also but at least I get to walk around with a hard -on when I take Viagara. This sucks big time ! At least I get to dream weird stuff later on tonight.
They even put a CD in with the patches and some cool talking guy is telling you how you can do it and plays soothing music. I wish I had that fucker by the neck right now.
I am going to get drunk.

[mramailman]

Amen Putt. Windylu told me that she wished I hadn't quit now. I guess I've been a bitch today.

I've had a urge to eat since yesterday. UGHhh this sucks.

Putt remember how it felt to get that first drag down..... sounds good but I have to quit. If I don't Windylu will probably go back to smoking after the baby. I made the deal if I quit she won't start back. It's getting rough.

[mramailman]

Also getting drunk won't solve shit....a coulpe drinks and there is no way I could fight the urge.... I'd be at the store by the 2nd beer.

[meatpile]

Yeah careful putt.

If you want to not smoke - go for a jog.

Putt midnight on May 31st will be my last one. I made a vow to myself. Starting a new job June 3rd and no smoking? I will kill some fucker before it's over with!

Hang in there bud! Do you know any MD's? ZYBAN DOES HELP! (That with the patch made it a lot easier.) But it takes about a week before it kicks in. I made it 20 days last time.

[VOR]

Geez let the ol lady leave in your condition I'm surprised that you don't have her tied up.

[bunkyboy]

putt, i thought you were going to the winston tonite?

[Insidian]

Hey good luck Putt and mailman........in the meantime I'll be chuggin' some brew and smokin' away......and coughing up a lung and pissing every 5 minitues......jeez.........

I ain't saying a damn thing.











:smoke:

[cltbuilder]

THat's mean Lainey. Real Mean. :D

Good luck guys. I'll quit if the do-gooders get their way and they make them illegal to buy. Of course...they'll probably be cheaper on the black market than they are now.

[VOR]

Lainey smokes :confused:

Well guess it's back to Elllen Barkin :mushy:

[reb]

Putt, smoke a joint.

[Puttingood]

I have a camper set up down there but I never got no response frome anyone to party with. Exceptin QCH and he had to work. I have been to enough races in my life but I ain't been to enough partys.:)

tempting as heck


If you want to not smoke - go for a jog. posted by Meat

I did ! Right after you said it. I jogged a half a block and bout fell out. Walked a few blocks more. Now I am sore and grouchy.:)

[Windylu]

This may not help, but when I quit (even though it was because of the baby) I thought about cigs everyday about 20 times a day (one thought for every cig in a pack). Eventually, you figure out what you use to do before you smoked. My biggest problem was remembering what I did with my hands before I smoked. For about 2 months I could smoke the balls off a cig and then eat the butt, but now, it doesn't bother me. Honestly, the smell makes me sick, especially when I don't smell it all day and come home and mailman has smoked a pack since he walked in the door.

I know you can do it....Good Luck!

[Puttingood]

I am hanging in there Windy. Thanks for the support and all others.
I went up to the texaco to see what kind of candy on a stick or something to chew on they had. Ended up finding out that they charge 59cent for 5 Lik A Nips or what ever they call them now days. Little wax bottles with a syrup like liquid in them. That bout pushed me over the edge but I regained my composure and I am doing much better now.:D

Those are Nik'L Nips, Putt. Anyway, a buddy of mine was in the same shape as you so he went to Tinderbox and bought a handful of Monte Cristos and some spicy-smelling Jamaican cigars and took them home and ate the damn things. He said he carefully unwrapped them and chewed the wrappers and then let the guts sit in his mouth until they got gooey and then swallowed them. As a professional, I'm not recommending this, but the guy was hooked to the tune of 2 1/2 packs a day and hasn't smoked in three years.

[needawindow]

Keep at it putt, it will get easier. (but it may take a while). If you can avoid it, don't light up. this will put you back to ground 0, and then you will have to debate whether it is worth it to stop again. Trust me, it is worth stopping (I quit about 12 years ago). Hopefully the patch will help make it easier.

[UnaChica]

Yeah good luck to the both of you.

I quit smoking for four years then started again. The longer you go without a cigarette the easier it gets. However, you'll be fighting the urge to smoke for the rest of your life.

But after awhile, the food will taste better and that's when you have to be careful not to put on weight. Your sense of smell will also improve.

Hang in there. You both can do it!:D

Yeah a good dose of biofeedback may work. My dad did a number on me with a carton of camels when I got caught at 14. got so sick I never could bring myself to start again.

[Puttingood]

I got it with 'Its a girl" cigars. :D

Didn't mess with them again till my 30s

[meatpile]

I got hit at age 5. What was that fool thinking.

[Lainey]

Awww, Putt. I luv ya, dude. I'm very proud of you for even attempting this. Just take it one hour at a time. Tell yourself you're not going to smoke for one hour, then when the hour is up recommitt to another hour and so forth. Take it from someone who understands!:smooch:

[lex]

i used to smoke. i understand this journey you are taking. there is no secret to quitting but simply quit and not let your urges take over. psyche yourself out every hour, like lainey said. it's a battle, be a warrior! :chucks:

putt...i applaud you for deciding to do this. you will live a longer, healthier life and smell yummier!!! 'smoke free' smells so yummmy.... :p

you go, putt! :)

I hate to brag:D , but(snort)I smoked for 25 years and quit like flipping a switch to off.;)

Thats just fucking great. You are more of a man than I am. Glad you quit. Now shut the fuck up !

[cltbuilder]

Snappish. :D

[needawindow]

Putt, you doing okay??? need any gum to chew, or candy??

[Puttingood]

Got lemon drops but I see that four drops is 60 calories. Had 2 drops yesterday but don't know if it was worth the 30 calories or not. Ain't never been on many diets so I am trying not to baloon up anymore than I am now.
Didn't wear the patch to bed and woke up this morning and just put it on a while ago.
I miss the Coca Cola

[kshead]

If you're having trouble trying to figure out what to do with your hands while you're not holding a cigarette I have one word:

Masturbation.

If that doesn't help, see Reb's advice above.

[HPCatFan]

Don't worry Putt, you can do it. I've quit for a long time now and I don't want one every day like some people do. I hate 'em now. Just remember, if you can't quit or have trouble with it, you're a pussy. :D

[Puttingood]

Masturbation.

Ok


If that doesn't help, see Reb's advice above.

Rebs advice is good but with a drawback. Imagine trying to take a Miller Lite from me. Now, imagine trying to pry a joint out of my wifes hand.
Same scene, just different weapons.:)

[mramailman]

Putt I broke down yesterday. I had a cigar while playing golf. I know I shouldn't have but damn man I was playing golf...... isn't it sacriledge not to have a cigar while playing.... in a tournament no less.


How are you doing with it Putt?

[Puttingood]

None at all since my 5000th post at 10:57 5-17-02 :)

Cigar and golf is OK.:)
Never smoked cigars but I can see why some would,

[mramailman]

I was wondering if I would be considered a failure with the cigar incident but I just couldn't turn it down.

[Stargazer]

Putt, I don't see how you are quitting smoking and dieting, too. I couldn't do it--I had to quit smoking first and then diet to get it off but I didn't have the patch, either. Best of luck to ya! Keep on weoirua;lskdjf;oisryfd;oiyasef ing if you need to. :D We don't mind!

Careful on those. My Uncle gave up a lifelong cigarette smoking habit, and promptly switched to cigars. He now smokes about 6 or 8 LARGE cigars per day, basically every waking moment. He's had several tumors removed from his mouth.

Nicotine is nicotine...

[Patti]

Putt, I'm with Star. I think trying to give up all bad habits all at once is setting yourself up for failure. No nicotine or coca-cola? I would kill somebody!

But you seem to be proving me wrong. Way to go Putt!! :applause:
