Hi fellow quitters just dropped in to read some stories and see how everyone is getting in their journey. been 264 days smoke free for me today and its been a challenge no 2 ways but also doable !! no secret tricks other than not picking up that 1st smoke and slowly dealing with the stuff that kept me smoking and that's been the hard part dealing with my issues and if you are like me th...
