Drop That Cigarette


I quit smoking because I wanted to prove that I was still in control of this nasty habit. It's now been more than a week since I smoked a cigarette and the cravings have become more tolerable. With only just that short period of time, I've already noticed the following improvement in my body/lifestyle:

Healthier Skin

A week ago, a zit on my temple, forehead, cheek, or any other area on my face was a normal sight. Today, I'm freaking out that there's a small bump under my right eye because the rest of my face had been pimple free for the last couple of days.
No More Stinky Smell

That horrendous morning breath? Gone. Cigarette smelling shirts? Gone. In roughly ten days, my body seemed to have flushed out all the smelly toxins. It's also important to note that my olfactory sense has dramatically improved ever since.
More Money

This was an unexpected treat. I didn't realize I could save this much just by quitting smoking. And was I really burning that much money for ten long years? Insane!
If you're a smoker and you've been contemplating on quitting, I encourage you to just do it. Do it anyway you want, whether gradually or cold turkey. Trust me when I say that it's going to be the best decision you'll make for yourself and for everyone you love.
