in reminding everyone not to drink alcohol this weekend:

"I thought well I can smoke and then stop after that night...... that was before I was at the gas store buying a pack of my favorite smokes ...................... I was back at smoking 2 + packs within 10 days I think"

You really don't know how many drinks it will take for your addled brain to tell you, "just one won't hurt" and you BELIEVE it.  Better safe than sorry.

A quit is a terrible thing to lose.

I smoked until a vascular surgeon informed me of the damage I had done to myself by doing so. I quit 11 years ago, and I can swim laps virtually FOREVER now, walk most other days 40 minutes to an hour and a half. What a difference quitting has made in my life! I strive to help others find this wonderful freedom from addiction, too.
