That was in 3 mos.
Damn, I just stopped smoking on Jan 1 (had been planning this for the last 6 months). I already weigh 215 or 220...

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.

Not saying you will, but both times I have stopped, the weight has come on.

Good Luck.

I quit 11 years ago, cold turkey, without any of the quitting aids. The reason I think the weight comes on initially is not only the oral habit, so to speak, but the fact that everything tastes so darn good once you can actually taste it. It is amazing the smells, tastes...etc. that smokers miss out on, if you ask me.

That is how I quit both times. First time lasted 12 years. Hope this lasts
until I am gone. May not be long at my age.

May see U there. Depends on several things. Wife has surgery to remove
cancer, but still not sure of date. Sometime this month. They are telling
us that she has 75% chance of complete recovery.

It is a lot of fun. Regular HS coach cannot coach, so they have dads and in
some cases travel ball coaches. They get ejected a lot. Eject em, let em back in
then eject em again. Two ejections and you done for the day.
