These were the steps that helped me to quit smoking 4 months ago. I will never smoke again.

1.) I anounced my stop smoking date to everyone I knew the day before quitting. Family members, friends, coworkers. I even told people at work I didn't know, but that I would often see outside when smoking. EVERYONE knew. Obviously I would have looked like a complete idiot if I broke out a cigarette in front of anyone I told.

2.) I was spending 4 dollars a day in cigarretts. I religiously instead put 4 dollars per day into a wood box screwed shut. It will be opened and spent at the Daytona show. It already has what, like 500 bucks in it (unless I have been robbed!)???!!!

3.) I promised my kids I would stop smoking for them.

For me, honestly, number 2 is what made me stick to my guns more then anything else. That, and the much better tasting food!
