i'm am what i consider a social smoker...I smoke when i am around friends that do or going out to the bars. I quit cold turkey when i was PG with my kids. When i was a non-smoker, i realized that they stunk really badly, and i could smell them when someone was smoking outside even. made my stomach turn.
The thing that i found is that if i know that i have cigarettes around, that i know that i am making a concious choice on not having a smoke. I can go days or weeks or even a few years without smoking, as long as i know that it is my choice to smoke or not to smoke.
Another thing that i have done, is that i have put money in a jar about the same for what would smoke for that payperiod and used it to treat myself on a new CD or DVD or gas money for travelling or whatever. (with the prices today per pack/carton it should add up quickly!)
Good Luck!
