    Good Morning!

    I am happy to say a year has passed since my last cigarette. These forums have been a major asset in getting me here. Along the way, I set out a clear path for myself with goals and rewards. I am enjoying each and every day as a non-smoker, and, with the memory of all I went through, I have no intention of going back. Here are my stats:

    Savings $6,280.56
    Days Smoke-Free 366
    Cigarettes Not Smoked 12078
    Life saved: 92 days 6 hours 18 minutes

    I wish everyone another smoke-free day.

    Eagerquit,

    Congrats on a year of living la vita smoke-free! And wow, look at those impressive savings! Clearly your quit is way more valuable than the stats though. 

    Everytime I see another post of someone who has been smoke free a year, two or three - it really inspires me. Also, a big thanks to you for your posts which helped me keep my quit through the early days.

    Hi eagerquit, and a HUGE welcome to the 1-year club!!!

    I'm so happy for you.  You and I have been on this journey together, just a few days apart, and with similar experiences.  And we have both found this forum extremely helpful in our quits.

    I'm glad to read of your confidence to never smoke again.  Now go out and enjoy a beautiful smoke-free weekend.
