    I quit smoking first, a dozen times. Chewed also, drank plenty. Beer don't taste right without a smoke, neither does coffee. I finally whipped the cigs then the booze. Only took a few bad days for the booze, quit coffee also. Its been 15yrs now. I had as much trouble with the chewing tobacco(not snuff) as the cigs. I drink coffee again, took a drink now and again of beer but NO way will I take one puff. It still gets me even now, especially when I drive by myself. Good luck, I made it up to 8mos. at one time before I broke over.

    It is in your head. You have to tell yourself you are a non smoker. Think like a non smoker, act like a non smoker, learn to hate smoking.

    Worked for me.

    Good Luck it does get easier but you have to be tough.

    When I quit smoking many years ago I had alway heard that the urge would be very difficult to deal with. What I found is that the urge to light up was not nearly as strong as the urge to choke the living s*** out of those around me that I found irritating.

    Always remember,only your brain wants them.Your body doesnt.Your brain can undermine your body and ultimately ruin it for what?pleasure?its a bad trade.People are dead or in prison because they listened to their brains first thought of action instead of rationalizing whats best for the body as a whole.

    For Runs Without Beer and Laughing Beetle - I know that you've probably heard this before, but take it from a former smoker - food is going to taste much better.

    The best thing I ever did was to give up smoking.
    I feel SO much better now.
    Keep going guys it really is worth it.
    I'd like to be able to do the same with the beer but it's SO damn hot here and a really icy cold one is the only thing to hit the spot.
    Like I say 'Good Luck' keep going you can do it.
