4000 chemicals

As my first week smoke-free approaches, I keep in mind that there are more chemicals than nicotine in a cigarette. Including arsenic, formaldehyde, ammonia and hydrogen cyanide. These are some of the 4000+ chemicals (including 43 known cancer causing ones) that I am no longer inhaling into my lungs.

Well done, keep going, remind yourself hourly why you quit, good thoughts to you in your recovery.

And all these chemicals simply make smokers stink... Concentrate on what you may do with the savings from being smoke free...
