    First week was hardest. But after that...whenever i feel the urge to smoke, i just tell myself sayang the sacrifice i put in getting this far already...and it works.

    I still think abt smoking every now and then. But its just a passing fancy now.

    we are lucky.
    smoking was never attractive in the family.
    "parang nagsusunog ng pera."
    our older cousins smoked a bit. it was socially "in", back then.
    after their generation, no one in the clan smokes anymore.

    I was a smoker din nung college days ko. Marlboro green + mentos. Siguro months lang tinagal. Nagstop ako nung madali na ko hingalin pag naglalaro ako ng dance revo noon.

    NO offense to smokers in their 40s and up. When I was in my teens and 20s my impression of NON-smokers my age e boring Pag 30s, I have no opinion because it's an in between age. Pag 40s turn off na kasi para sakin rite of passage ang smoking, it's just something fun young people do and for me there's a disconnect dahil pag 40s nasa serious phase na ng buhay and no matter how fit and healthy, it's an age where you can't stop the clock anymore (eg metabolism and skin etc) It's like each cigarette is taking a minute off the person's life. When you're young kasi you can really abuse your body and not feel anything, but in your 40s may effect na yan.

    I think generation ko ang last na it's cool to smoke. Those born in the 90s wala na ko kilalang smokers. Sa office namin sa buong department namin mostly 20s, almost 100 kami and NOBODY smokes. What a difference, when I was a new hire in the late 2000s (so majority kami ang 20s) nagkaka asaran at issue pa samin yung mga officemate namin na "buraot" hahaha! Yung mahilig maki bum ng yosi or manghiram ng lighter tapos hindi na ibabalik. Lucky for the young ones now, that is not an issue.

    If you tried cold turkey and it wasn't effective, then it means you're not yet really ready to quit. For me that's where you need to focus on, not how to stop. I was a smoker. Smoked since high school. Blue seal pa binibili. Cool eh. Started with Benson and Hedges and eventually settled for Marlboro Mediums. Twice I tried to stop. One gradual and one cold turkey. Didn't work. Up until a few years ago I was doing at least a pack a day. I'm in my late 40s so just imagine how much I've smoked. When I met sina dreamur, CVT, etc, ilang beses ako pumunta sa smoking area. Eventually around 2018 I think I woke up and said to myself, "This is gonna be my last pack". I wanted to stop. It's not because of some medical test result or anything. I just wanted to stop. So yeah, I kept my word. For someone who smokes a pack a day, that last pack lasted me for 3 weeks. Talagang control na sinisimot ko and I was savoring each stick. Finally, after the last stick, that's it. Kept my end of the bargain. Didn't tell anyone, not even my partner. In fact, she was surprised when I told her after several weeks that I already quit. She doesn't mind anyway if I do or don't. When she met me I was a smoker already so tanggap na. I didn't count the days or weeks or months that I stopped. I just wanted to stop. When people found out, some asked if I do vaping now. I said, no. I never looked for an alternative to smoking. I just wanted to stop. So until today, I still haven't smoked. If you really want to stop, just condition your mind that you want to stop. Doesn't matter how you do it. Just stop. If you can't do it now, don't. Go ahead and smoke. I've been there and I don't deny that I like doing it. Now if you decide you want to stop, then just STOP.

    For those who quit smoking, you NEVER touched a cigarette na since quitting or kaya niyo occasionally a few sticks (eg twice or thrice a year) Napansin ko since I quit I don't need prophylaxis as much anymore, dati every 3 mos nagpapa cleaning ako

    Anyway, okay siguro mga EB sa Tsikot about a decade ago marami pang smokers hehehe. All this talk makes me miss nights out smoking and drinking tuloy Nagulat ako mga nagsasabing smokers dito na hindi ko inexpect na smokers

    Started smoking in high school too (first year), because I wanted to be "cool" din. I used to smoke mga half pack lang naman a day. I quit summer before going to college because it came to a point that I was stealing coins from my mom's piggy bank just so I could buy a few sticks. I then said to myself kakahiya na to. So I then quit cold turkey. I started picking up the habit again when I started working, but I only smoked pag may inuman. Then my fiends & I had a biggest loser contest & decided to quit na talaga. Been smokeless for more than a decade now (does mj count? hehe). Hardest part really is probably the first week. After that, kaya na yan! Like I mentioned here before, ang dali lang mag quit! Ilang beses ko na ginawa yun! hehe.

    Good story and good advice.

    Gotta want to seriously freakin quit it to stop it.

    Guess as long as you want to quit, the little non-use might add up and eventually led to complete stoppage.

    Tried smoking in HS, didn't like it the first time so never na naulit.

    Kudos to you sir!

    Only Alexa Grace comes into mind that could somehow fit in those categories but her thighs aren't really "big" and she has retired as well. Hahaha.
