That’s how I quit also. I told my wife,if I make it to my 75th birthday,I’m going to a 7/11,buying a pack of Newports. Then I’m going to sit in the parking lot and smoke the entire pack! Only 18 years to go!!See my profile for list of gear. -
Agree, first 48hrs ROUGH, first 2 weeks not fun, after that I was good to go.
Have have to retrain your brain to deal with the "boredom cigarette" time. For me, this was the hardest. I didn't realize how much I smoked out of boredom. Be patient, you will develop new ways of coping; going for a short walk helped me.
How bout your sense of smell returning? Do oders smell more intense now? -
I smell a rat.

Absolutely, not only are the good smells more intense, so are the bad ones.
Ya know, right away the smell thing was noticeable to me. After 2 weeks in the hospital I came home and the smell of smoke that permeated my home was horrible as I opened the door. This told me what other people smelled who were non smokers who came into my home. I was totally embarrassed by the stench. Spent the next month washing everything, wiping down walls, etc.HT SYSTEM-

I noticed that after a 10 day stint in the hospital years ago. Congrats to you guys and someday I'll do the same I hope. It's a stranglehold addiction for sure.

Oh yeah, that comes on pretty quick--like day 3. We only smoked in Bev's truck once, and it was disgusting. We had to give it a big cleaning. Thankfully, we've never smoked in the house. Your sense of taste comes back too.Source: Bluesound Node 2i - Preamp/DAC: Benchmark DAC2 DX - Amp: Parasound Halo A21 - Speakers: MartinLogan Motion 60XTi - Shop Rig: Yamaha A-S501 Integrated - Source: Rotel CD14MkII CD Player - Speakers: Elac Debut 2.0 B5.2 -

I am cooking all of this and my picky daughter in law want's to bring a ham cause she doesn't like any of it except turkey but she doesn't like it smoked. Funny thing is I pretty much hate ham but I will eat it. I am not picky about holiday fare except yams, yams are the food of the Devil. -

You are absolutely welcome to join us, you can have her portion! As a matter of fact anytime you can make it to Arizona I will prepare the same meal for you. I can cook pretty good, at least the last time that I tried. BTW no lockdown here! Furthermore I can make you some of those Satanic candied yams (I can cook those too) but you have to eat them on the porch or the bathroom, I can't bare to watch.Post edited by afterburnt on -
