Billionaires Back Antismoking Effort

I experimented with a lot of substances over the years and was a heavy smoker ever since I was 15. I’m 43 now.
Then my wife got pregnant with our son so I thought it was time to call it quits. Valentines Day 2007 I had my last cigarette and I quit cold turkey.
No gum. No patches. No hypnosis or acupuncture. I was cranky for a day or 2 and had some constipation but that was it. I gained some weight, but am working to get that down to what it was. The funny thing was, I was prepared for the worst withdrawals, ‘Trainspotting Style’ , and it turned out to be fairly easy. Mind you, I am not surrounded by smokers as I was in Holland, so the temptations aren’t there. Still, I like to give myself a pat on the back every once in a while.

Billionaires Back Antismoking Effort

LoL, it’s funny cause me and my co-worker where just talking about something like this. I said I would stop cold turkey for a large amount of money. He didn’t believe me and claimed I would cheat.

Pfffttt, everyone has a price.

I’ve got a co-worker (Late Co-worker, if you’ve been following my work foibles), who is currently quitting smoking. She’s currently at the ‘Lung Bunnies’ stage of things, and is hacking at every conceivable opportunity.

I sure would’nt want magnets in my body…there would be trouble if you walked to close to a refrigerator
