The No Smoking Train... 100 Days Aboard!

(Edited)

Good afternoon, little Bees! 🐝

Last Saturday I've reached another important milestone: 100 days without smoking!

Oddly enough, quitting smoking wasn't as difficult for me as it seems to be for most people. After I set up my mind to it, it became quite normal not to smoke... a habit, even. 😊

The first 30 days were the most difficult ones. Now I think I can say I'm beyond all of that... smoking is no longer a thing. I don't even think about buying a pack of cigars anymore.

That chapter... is officially closed.

My health is starting to improve. However, I did gain a bit of weight... smoking is definitely unhealthy but it keeps you thin. (Or thinner, at least.) It looks like I'll need to exercise more to reduce my belly. 🀣

My belly wasn't the only thing that got fat. Since I've stopped smoking my wallet is a bit more fat, too. It's ridiculous how much a smoker wastes on all that crap. Now, instead of cigars I can buy Bitcoin! 😎

That's all for now... If you are planning on quitting smoking, the main trick is: stop buying cigars. After you do that, not smoking becomes a lot easier.

Thanks a lot! I thought about vaping but then I read it wasn't very different from smoking, so I didn't follow up on that.

I hope you can quit, too...

It was real tough for me. Can't think of the last time I had a cigar... 5 years at least. And I still think about them regularly.

Congratulations dude.

Good for you. Congratulations. Cold turkey and a firm resolve to stop is the best way to kick the habit. I used to be a one and a half packer a day. Two or more when I go out drinking with buddies. And after smoking for 22 years I quit and have not smoked a single stick for 33 years running.

Damn!!! 33 years and you're still counting it? Ahahahha! 🀣
Well done!

I never smoked that much. A pack would last me for a week or two.

Congratulations on your epic achievement! @trincowskiπŸ‘

Even a few pounds of extra weight is way better than all the harmful effects and damage cigarettes causes.

Enjoy your fat wallet!πŸ’°πŸ’Έ

Thank you very much! Even though... I think I got fat more because of the covid restrictions than because of stop smoking. 🀣

Haha πŸ˜‚ buying Bitcoin instead of cigarettes is quite the motive for any crypto enthusiast, the only thing that i need now is the Will power not to quit but to buy btc through quitting smoking.
Thanks for sharing buddy and well done βœ…

You're right. It's more difficult to buy BTC at these prices than to quit smoking! 🀣

Congratulations my friend, keep the streak going. For me, when I quit many years ago, all cravings and fears of being around smokers dissipated after about 4 months. Within 6 months I actually began to dislike the smell of second-hand smoke.
