Still haven't been able to quit. Cut back by quite a bit, but still habe to stop. Just got done another pack. After doing some reading on this site I had set my new date to quit for March 1st, so I guess this is it. Shall see how long it will last this time around It's great that you have been able to achieve some smoke-free days - keep it up and soon you will have that Bowflex! The first few weeks are always the hardest and the important thing is to not to be too hard on yourself when you relapse. Relapses are pretty much inevitable. The key is to treat each one as a single event that is now behind you and get right back on track by quitting again. I had to go through that cycle too many times to count but eventually it worked. Good luck and keep us posted on your progress! best, anne

Still saving $10.00 for each day I don't buy a pack to put towards my Bowflex.
