Cigarette-free.

I kinda feel like that's nothing - I mean, that's only a month for every decade I was a smoker.

But I also feel like it's something. Something big.

Hooray!

My boss quit his long-time cigarette habit last year through vaping. It's really helped his health overall. Stick with it and feel proud!

Thank you!

And yay for your boss! It's really working for me, I've got to say. I haven't even wanted a cigarette. And I'm gradually scaling down the concentration of nicotine in the just - started at 18mg, dropped down to 12 pretty quick, now doing a mix of 12 and 6...

Way to go. I don't know how many times I tried to quit before 2 blood clots in my left lung made the decision for me. I was off them for 3 years then had to move back to my home town to take care of my mother. Started again, went about year, year and a half then got sick and decided I didn't want to be dragging and oxygen tank around with me. Been using the nicotine gum, so still addicted to nicotine but better than smoking.
Keep up the great work.

Oh that's terrible about your lung - how awful. I'm not sure I would have taken the hint even then, I was pretty stubborn. It was money that was my main motivator, to be honest. And vaping is the way I did it - have you looked into that? It's really working for me, and it's a lot more pleasant than the gum.

That's super cool, dude. People have so much trouble quitting later in life.

(I mean, not that you are later-later in life, or anything. Koff.)
