    Well, it's my 6 year anniversary as a non-smoker.  Yippee!

    When I grew up, everyone smoked.  It was the thing to do.  Now, not so much.  In fact, it truly is frowned upon if you light up.  The world has changed, and in this way, for the better.

    In the last 6 years, I would have smoked about 55,000 cigarettes.  Isn't that astonishing?  When you smoke, you really don't think about it, but they all add up.  Yuck, how gross!  What we did to our bodies.

    For those of you trying to quit, hang in there.  And for those of you who have quit, stay the course.  it is worth all the effort.  Life is so much better when you don't smoke.  And the extra money is nice, too!

    Hi Treepeo and a big Congrats on your 6 year milestone! All these posts from everyone on their journey to Freedom from smoking  have kept me from "having just one smoke". Quitting smoking has literally been the best thing  ( and likely the hardest! ), I have ever done for myself, which in turn has hopefully helped others. Its a win win!!  Thank you - m m

    Hi Treepeo,

    A HUGE congratulations to you.  6 years is so inspiring. 

    Your kind words of encouragement helped me so much during those agonizing first days.  And you were right, those hours did turn into days, and into weeks and months, and even years!

    Stay proud.
