Two Year Quitaversary

Two years ago today, I crumpled up half a pack of Marlboro Lights and started on the long and arduous journey to becoming an ex-smoker.

My husband quit with me - and I honestly don't think I could have done it without him. If you are trying to become an ex-smoker, I definitely recommend enlisting the help of a spouse or significant other or close friend. Their support can be invaluable.

This is another really good resource to help you go cold-turkey:

WhyQuit.Com

I found that using a QuitMeter provided me with a lot of motivation.

The people on the Quit Smoking Support Forums were the greatest when it came to encouragement.

And of course the 12 Steps of Nicotine Anonymous were inspiring and motivational.

According to my QuitMeter, I have not smoked 25,585 cigarettes and I have saved $3,198.12 that I would have spent on cigarettes.

Happy two-year quitaversary to me and Charles!
