Good for you! I quit when I found out I was pregnant, and I only hope that I don't go back to it after the baby is born. I still crave them sometimes. Do you ever want one? I'm just wondering b/c I have heard from people who have quit that they never stop craving them.

Yay Congrats! I quit in May - 8 years ago - I don't ever crave them now. Not ever. Actually, just the smell of them sort of makes me feel icky.

Hells yeah! Congratulations on a truly stellar accomplishment. It's been 6.5 months since I quit cold turkey, and I'm still going strong.

yay sam!!! i am coming up on my one year anniversary, myself! you are giving me hope. congratulations!!

to answer your question, cassie -- yes, you will probably crave them for a long time. but i find that the cravings are farther apart the longer i don't smoke. also, i'm getting to the point where i REALLY HATE the smell, so i'm thinking that my cravings will soon disappear entirely.

but yes, every once in a while, i'm like, "damn, that looks good."

keep it up. you will be SO proud of yourself if you quit. it's SO much harder than quitting drinking. at least, for me it was.
