Looks like savings add up. ;-)

The Austin smoking ban when into effect at midnight last night.
No smoking in ANY restaurants or bars now.

Carry on......

Just wait until all the refugees, in and out of N.O. and the Gulf
cities, run out of cigarettes, and the street thugs run out of drugs.
I surely wouldn't want to be there.

For me that would be about 35 pounds. That probably also resets my "Life
Saved" back to 0!

All the best,

Andy

Well done!
I managed 10 weeks and gained 9 pounds before relighting 🙁
I managed to find enough excuses to start again.
Don't find an excuse to start again no matter how big you think it is.
Relighting after all this time would be such a BIG mistake!
I'd say 99.9% of smokers envy you, the other .1% can think of an excuse to
want to smoke!

agony and just purchased a carton of Winston.

seconds. 55267 cigarettes not smoked, saving $10,362.72. Life saved: 27 weeks, 2

Rosie,

The only time it creeps up on me is when somebody smokes on TV. Actual
cigarette smoke really bothers my nose now.
