2 years smoke free

[Steve]

I had to share this because I never thought I would be able to say it. This coming weekend will mark exactly 2 years since I finally gave up smoking for good. Was a long hard road after being a pack & a half a day smoker but by far the best decision I ever made for myself in my entire life! Between quitting smoking 2 years ago, and losing 151 lbs last year, I may actually add a fee extra years of fishing times onto my life

Good job on them both.  Never smoked myself... but I can understand the weight loss.

Awesome job Steve

Giving  up the smokes is hard but its all mind over matter.

I quite when I was taken off work from my accident and that was April 22nd 2007

Have not lit up since

Keep up the great Job Steve and also congrats on the weight loss

Good job
Maybe someday I'll quit. I think about it often. (Yes I have a Newport in my hand right now)

Give that man a cigar, oops never mind!

Congrats, I need to lose about 60lbs myself, I just like food too much.

Congrats Steve.  I know it is hard, I quit smoking when I got out of the Marines in 1998.  Gets easier with time.

[RichE]

Gets easier with time.

If you ever get the urge to light up, go find a dirty ashtray and tell yourself instead of lighting up I am going to lick the dirty ashtray. Like I said I have never looked back, its a mind gameandyou just have to be stronger

Congratulations on 2 very difficult victories.

Steve, that's great news.  Keep up the good work.  I've never smoked but my dad did 2 1/2 packs a day until he had his first heart attack at age 40.  He later passed away at age 48.  I learned how much breaking the habit/additiction is a mind-over-matter situation.  Stick with it, man.

Steve, you have my respect.  Well done.
