   Hi Guys,
   
   it's been two years since I quit as of today! :)   This is a new milestone, as both my prior quits lasted for an year each before I slipped. This time, I am determined to quit forever.  Never another puff ever again.   Over the two years I saved over $7k in cigarettes alone, not to mention the cost of boos and tims coffee I combine with it.  A pack a Belmont now costs around $17each, and a cup of coffee at tims or mcdonalds is $2+ each.   Moreover, I now spend a lot more time with my family, and I no longer have to lie to them that I did not smoke as I was a closet smoker. We can do this!!

   Awesome work Jeyan!!!!!  And congratulations for coming out of the closet (lol!!).  I too thought I was a closet smoker, but only after quitting realized that the odour is impossible to cover up to a  non-smoker.  And I hear you on the Timmy's too - haven't had a coffee from there since I changed my morning routine to quit.
   
   Again, congratulations.  You did it!!

   Hi Jeyan
   
   A belated congrats on your 2 year Quit. I am new here and you are an inspiration and proof that we do have it in us to succeed. I hope you treated yourself to something special with the money saved, although the freedom itself to do worthwhile things is really more than enough in itself. To you and the others, never let the ugly beast raise its head again. We can and will win.  .
