Yeah you prolly rite but I might go postal before its all over!!!!!!!

Hang in there bro......day number 11 for me without a smoke.

Sammy.....maybe you ought to do one thing at a time....quit smoking before you go on a diet.....man don't try to quit smokeing, quit drinking, and quit eating all at the same time......dang!

Oh I aint really tryin to quit drinkin G its just that when I have a drink I have a smoke so on and so on, lol, wife is dieting and she is really tryin hard so I am trying to help her along and,,,,,, ahhhhh heck if this is the start of Geezerdom all I can say is you one tough man!!!!!!

Be thankful she cares enough to try and keep you around for Geezerdom. Some would try to keep you from it. It will get better, gave up chewing and drinking 31 years ago. Don't miss the drinking but sometimes, not a lot, when fishing I sure could use a chew.

I gave up drinking 15 years ago....it was a lot easier for me than the smoking

When you are drinking and start to crave a smoke just have another drink. You'll be asleep quick, trust me.

I quit smoking Feb, 11 2001. My brother quit a year before me and he gave me some advise, that I will share. When you Tell yourself "I gotta have a smoke right &$@"ing now!!!" if you just wait about 10 minutes that craving will pass, and you are that much closer to really quitting.
Maybe that will help. Good luck.

Ok Sammy you just need to post up a Daily schedule of where you going to be. That way we can all make sure we ain't there for the next 6 weeks or so.:yikes

OMG, I just realized, I'm sharing a feeshing boat and a very small trailer with him this weekend. Y'all wish me luck!

I was very fortunate. May 12, 1985 I ran out of smokes and couldn't get any. The Lord was looking after me. I said "I quit". Haven't had one since. Never wanted one again. Doesn't bother me to be around smokers at all. One little warning. Several weeks after I quit I could really taste all the foods I liked. Didn't know what I had been missing. Boom! Put on weight like crazy. Not smoking is worth it, though. Your Honey might tell ya that it's more pleasant to kiss you cause you don't smell awful. Good luck. Hang tuff. It IS worth it.

Ahhhhhhhhh dat aint happenin.

Sammy, I quit smoking 4 yrs. ago using those Chantrix pills. You keep smoking while you take them but they are coating a receptor in the brain that nicotine is absorbed through so even though you are still smoking you are not absorbing what is making you crave another cig.After a short while you just decide the day you will stop and you do.I did not suffer any cravings to ever smoke again.As a test, I went and bought me 5 really good cigars and smoked 1 each day for a week and when I finished the last one I never had the craving to smoke again. Just a terrible taste in my mouth from all that smoke. i'm around lots of folks that smoke and it don't bother me at all.As for getting out and running or walking everyday. You don't have to diet as much and you can pretty much eat anything you want cause your motabolism speeds up and will burn the extra calories you intake. The older you get the longer you want to live and the more you will do to stay healthier.So you can catch as many crappies as humanly possible before that final day arrives.Good luck in your quest to quit smoking and your wifes quest to look finer to herself and others meaning you.As far as a diet, I reserve 1 day a week to eat anything that I darn well want. I just try to limit carbos, sugars, fried food as much as possible and I've managed to lose 15 lbs. so far. I feel a lots better! Hang in there Feesh!

Keep it up. Gave up drinking 10 years ago, not for health reasons - just wasn't good at managing it. Gave up smoking the weekly cigar after having bypass surgery 3 years ago. Have to watch the diet for the same reason and am really struggling with that. None of those temptations is worth missing out on the joy of healthy time with the family and happy times on the water. Good luck in your efforts.

I've lost 100lbs in the last year, but I'm still smoking. Quitting is my next project!!!! Congrats and good luck with the healthy living.

Aww....now.

I need to quit dipping but I ain't ready to yet. Good luck Sammy.

True story.....
My Great grand paw was a big eatin, drinkin, tobacco using man. Did it all, and it beat him down. At 50 he weighed 350. Went to the doctor and the doctor told him he was gonna die. Paw asked what he could do. Dr. said nuthin. It is to late. You done killed yourself. Paw went home, threw away all his tobacco, quit drinking, and went on a diet. His breakfast was a bowl of oatmeal with a splash of black coffee in it for flavor. He did not smoke another cigar, chew any more tobaco, drink anything but water and black coffee, or eat anything with ANY flavor till the day he died....... at 92. Moral of this story... It is never to late to get healthy.

PS. I remember my Paw being one of the grumpiest, meanest SOBs in the world. I guess you cant have everything.
