Congratulations JoeW,
Welcome to the Gold Club. I did a little math to put your accomplishment into perspective. Bear with this long winded explaination of the significance of your accomplishment. There are 24 hours in each day x 365 days a year = 8760 hours per year If you are an average Joe, like me, you sleep 8 hours a day. 8 hours per day x 365 days per year = 2920 hours sleep per year. 8760 hours per year - 2920 hours sleep per year = 5840 hours per year awake. (Wow, usefull time is shrinking fast!) By your quit meter, you would have spent 2 months 5 days smoking cigarettes over the past year had you not quit. 65 days per year x 24 hours per day = 1560 hours per year smoking. 5840 hours per year awake / 1560 hours per year smoking = 3.74 In others words you spent more than a third of your waking hours with a cigarette in your hand. A third of your waking hours were devoted to shortening you life. You have all of that time back now. It is all yours because you took one step. Because you had the courage to say "No nicotine today." you are free for an entire year. While this milestone is indeed a special one, each day henceforth will be just as special a celebration of your freedom if you make it so. Joseph 4 years 5 months |
