[VFB] Re: Smoking - NonFF

[Jimmy D. Moore]

Cold Turkey is the only way to go!  I smoked all through college, 3 packs a day or so, then I quit "Cold Turkey" at mid-night, Friday the 13th of July - 1962.  Married Jody at 10:00 Saturday the 14th. Never smoked another cigarette!  Of course I went from 157 pounds to 228 by the end of 1962.  Big appetite, regular hours and Jody's cooking.  Never wanted another cigarette. I figured that by quitting on Friday the 13th, I'd be doomed if I ever started back. :-P  At 157 and 6,' I was a string bean anyway.  Needed some meat on my bones. Have dipped below 200 only a couple of times in the 41 years since then.
