I used to smoke 2.5 packs a day.  One day in year 2000,  i had a chest xray and 
everything was nice and clear. I conditioned my mind that i should quit now 
while i am ahead. So i quit cold turkey, aided by ice cold water, and a brand 
new computer and it kept my mind busy all day hardly noticing the cravings.  
Before i quit, i put two cartons of cigarettes in the freezer, so in my mind i 
am not actually being deprived coz it is right there within my reach.  So it 
became a matter of self control.  It is difficult after eating and while 
drinking coffee.  I sucked on ice a lot too.
 
It is really determination.
