To try once again to stop smoking. To let go of the past and forgive those that have hurt me. I guess to just be a better, healthier person.

Too true regarding smoking.  Someone gave me this suggestion and it really helped.  Cut out one cigarette a day from what you usually smoke. If that is too much then make it every two days.  It works and your body is able to quit gradually without withdrawal.

Same as this year, lose weight, eat healthier and to not waste money - I made a valiant effort this year, but I need to do better.

I agree, i've gone cold turkey for weeks at a time, but usually I always end up picking up another smoke because of craving & habit(like going to a casino, smoking while playing slots is a favorite of mine lol). Sometimes it's not even the nicotine, but it's the motion of smoking the cig that I need to do, if that makes any sense. Some people say "why not just stop?" and those are usually the ones sensible enough to never have picked up a cig in the first place.

chew some gum and get a pen worked for me, remember the cig robs you of money and life!!! Basically just keep your mind running, exercise, text play an instrument talk whatever just keep active and away from smoking, best of luck to those trying to quit

Yeah I'm chewing gum now, it helps me not smoke while driving, especially during traffic (another favorite past-time of mine lol).

Congratulations for quitting smoking!  That is not an easy task.  Now about New Year resolutions...
I think this year I want to remember that each day is one I won't get back so I want to live each day to it's fullest and happiest.

My new years resolutions will be to exercise more and get fit, spend more family time with loved ones, run in a marathon, and spend more time on FC. Many of my friends are going to quit smoking for the new year, so I want to wish everyone good luck on their stop smoking campaign. It is hard to quit smoking, I did it by staying busy and keeping my mind occupied.

 :wave: Mine, too, will be to try to quit smoking and lose about 10lbs -  and keep it off. I know I'll want to eat more if i quit smoking. Last time I gained 20 lbs. Maybe I can find low cal things to munch on that I like. One more resolution better be to watch my temper. I have a short fuse without my smokes but they're getting too expensive and maybe I can get rid of this nagging cough.  :)

I don't make New Years Resolutions because for the most part I never stick to them.  But I do make a commitment to myself on a daily basis to do better today than I did yesterday.

i usually say i'm going to lose weight or start exercising more but i think making that my resolution will just be setting myself up for another year of failure.  :)

seriously, my number one new year's resolution is to get my 18 month-old daughter potty trained and sleeping in her own bed EVERY night.

never really make a new years resolution - not because i would not keep it - it's when you live in the NOW - you are already living the way you need, want and desire to be - IMHO >> In My Humble Opinion - The MUSEUM, Zazzle, deviantART, ArtFire, FineArtAmerica

I choose not to make New Year's resolutions because I will not stick to them.  No point in false hope. lol.  It's great when other people make them if they will actually follow through past the month of January.  Good luck quitting smoking.  Good for you.
