3 packs a day, sometimes more… 
Roughly a pack a day, less if I’m occupied, more if I’m out pubbing.
8 Nicorettes a day for 2 months now. I’ve got a Wrigley on my back.
Before that, 2+ packs a day for 20 years.
Nope.
Any positive health changes for the better that you’ve noticed squeegee?
For those of you who know their Country Music…you’ll know this…and it is VERY true of me and my life when it comes to smoking…
“She only smokes when she drinks…she only drinks now and then…when she’s been let down by friends”
I’ve been smoking and drinking alot lately!
Do you suppose they’ll have a cure for emphysema, too? Or for chronic bronchitis? Lung cancer isn’t the only problem smoking causes, and the body’s reaction to having irritants sucked into the lungs on a regular basis is probably not something that can be “cured.” But that’s beside the point.
Before I quit smoking 18 years ago, I was up to three packs a day. There are a few rare occasions (maybe once a year) when I smoke now, when I’m drinking with friends who smoke the same brand I used to, and when I do that, I chain-smoke just the way I did back in my addict days. I suspect if I did it for more than a day or two in a row, I’d be back to three packs a day within a week.
Welcome, Better_Days!
About 10 smokes a day, mostly on my way to/from work. An occasional one at night. Yes, it’s an evil habit. I try to balance it out with a vegetarian diet and much exercise. But, hell - it’s rather strange how smokers are treated nowdays - I could shoot up heroin in public, and get precisely the same looks as I get from smoking.
I’ve had 4 cigarettes, ever, and never really seen the point. Whatever “buzz” people get from nicotine apparently doesn’t work on me.
Former 1-2 pack-a-day smoker for over 20 years. I quit more than 7 months ago, and I feel great! If you’re thinking about quitting, my advice is: “Do it! Do it now!!”
About the same blonde, a carton will last me 3 weeks. Other smokers make me smoke more, so does seeing someone else smoke in a movie, especially if they are cool. (yeh, I know that’s pathetic)
The funny things is I run up to 10k’s twice a week, and ride 10 -15k’s also. I eat well and am in good shape. Yet people always think a smoker must be unfit and unwell. I haven’t felt smoking has affecting my running.
Smoked a pack to two packs a day for about ten years until this July. One day, walking down the street, I for some reason decided to stop smoking. Never really intended to quit, but I haven’t smoked a cigarette since. So, I figure, might as well quit at this point.
I smoke on and off, usually have about 5 a day unless I am drinking. At my worst (best?) I smoked a little over a pack/day.
I really do not understand how people are able to smoke 60 cigs a day! Not the health part, just the time factor. By my math, that means you are smoking about 40% of the time you are awake. I just don’t see how it’s possible.
Pack a day.
About a pack a day. Maybe a little bit more. I smoked Marlboros for many years. Now I’m smoking Marlboro Ultra-Lights. Don’t know if that makes any difference at all.
I did quit once. It lasted for five years. Then I started up again. All at once. At a very stressful moment, I lit a smoke. Instantaneously I was a pack a day smoker again.
Pack a day, two to three when I’m drinking. It’s definitely a love/hate relationship, me and the tobaccy. My husband smokes, too. We spend $75 to $110/week on smokes.
used to be a pack a day. Went cold turkey (economic reasons - those things are freaking expensive in the UK) been clean for over 2 years.
You’re kidding, right? 
Hard to say at this point because I made other changes at the same time over several months: I lost almost 30lbs, started exercising (I’ve been slacking since I finally quit smoking, go figure), completely changed my diet to low-fat/cholesterol, and started taking blood-pressure & cholesterol meds.
My motivation was simple: my two uncles on my Father’s side both dropped dead in the last couple of years, the first of a coronary, the second of lung cancer. Then my doctor tells me I have extremely high blood pressure and dangerous cholesterol levels, and that I’m a serious contendor for heart disease at age 41.
I figured I’d join my uncles a bit later rather than sooner. I’m sure they’ll save me a seat at the bar.
To finally give you an answer - my allergies seem completely gone, not a sneezle or runny nose. I have quite a lot more energy. I don’t wheeze like a sick locomotive when I do my brisk uphill walks now. Quite a lot less hack hack cough cough, no surprise there.
And I still want a $@#% cig every darned morning when I wake up. Thank God for Zyban and Nicorette.
SilkQuit says: Two months, five days, 23 hours, 17 minutes and 52 seconds. 3398 cigarettes not smoked, saving $502.59. Life saved: 1 week, 4 days, 19 hours, 10 minutes.
I smoke 3 or 4 cigarettes a day. I can easily live without them, but my wife has a hard time giving them up. She smokes just a little bit more than I do.
I used to smoke a pack a day. But I never really got addicted to them…I’ma very “min over matter” kind of guy. I quit a couple times for months and months at a stretch, and never had cravings or urges. Cold turkey is almost to easy for me. The reasons for my quitting were usually monetary, and the reason for my restarting was bordem added to the fact that everyone around me smoked excessively. It’s easier to be around smokers if you light up, too.
I haven’t smoked as much as I used to in a couple years. The only reason I smoke at all now is because the wife keeps buying them. So I join her when she goes out for a smoke, mainly just to get rid of them faster. Between the two of us, a pack lasts for 3 or 4 days. I keep trying to convince her to give it up for good, and I think she’ll be there soon.
1/2 pack a day but that could go to 3-4 if I’m out drinking on a all nighter.
Today so far I’ve only smoked one and don’t miss them. When I get home I tend to smoke more coz I can. I should really try to give the fuckers up coz it really does seem like more of a habit than an addiction when it comes to me and the evil weed.
now I also smoke a lot of the “good”
