There's a myth that even if you're exercising, then smoking is not a problem.
That is entirely false, smoking restricts the amount of blood and oxygen that can flow through the capillaries, too much stress on your body would lead to a heart attack if you're a avid smoker and you exercise/do physical activities.
Stop smoking slowly, cut the amount of packs you smoke in half every month, until you're almost done. Find another way to deal with stress, do yoga(which is much cheaper than paying $10 a pack), do some other thing that you enjoy to relieve stress, but stop smoking. Cigarettes contain hundreds of cancer causing carcinogens, as well as some crazy lethal substances such as ammonia, rat poison, lead, etc.
It's not $10 a pack, it is $2.80 a pack, so the money is not the problem. I don't think that it would, it rather could lead to a heart attack. I know a guy who smokes about 2 packs a day, he exercises a lot with me sometimes.

Harder then most people think.

I quit at the beginning of this year but sadly restarted. I hope I can one day kick the habit.
What made you start again. Seems quite an achievement to go so far then relapse.
Other people smoking around me at work. This triggered me to smoke one again.
It takes a long time to quit smoking. It's almost impossible to quit in one or few days If you have smoked for years, If you do so you would feel really bad because your organism is already "addicted" to smoking and needs It. Best to do is stop gradually taking less and less cigarettes per day till you'll finally take none. This can take several months or even over a year.

darkbum, it's great that you want to stop smoking! The first thing to do is to find someone who wants to stop smoking too. It is easier to do smth when you have like-minded person. Or if you don't have one, be aware that it will take you a lot of strength of will.

I think a good bet would be cutting the amount of cigs you use daily in half and so on until your smoking almost nothing. Spend time learning about the dangers of smoking so you can remind yourself how much the cigs are hurting you in real time. Maybe spend money on other things that you would have spend on cigs?
Lung cancer is the main thing that worries me. If it wasn't for that I'd probably smoke a few packs a week. Now I only limit it to when I'm stressed out. Hopefully 2 packs a week won't damage my health too much.

It ALOT HARDER then it looks.
I've cut it down to 2-3 packs of cigs per week at most. I smoke 1 when I work at night though.
I'm cutting back on this before I start to exercise again.

i've cut down to 4 cigs a day.. used to do 6-7 or so. i don't like the way i feel around non-smokers.. like i'm some dirty whore of a guy.
I'd say, don't bring any money with you. If you don't have enough money you will not even be able to buy more cigarettes how tempting it might be. If you do need money for shopping other stuff, calculate how much it would cost, and bring just enough. And remember to force your willpower to not buy cigarettes while you hand over the money.
I just noticed this one... dude trust me that doesn't work, you just end up bumming smokes off people. And usually they are pretty sympathetic and give them to you easily (even though they're expensive now) because they have all been there.
Jody, your friend was probably vaping some high-nic stuff and/or a low quality liquid. If you use junk juices they will make you feel crappy. Super high nic + alcohol will definitely make you swoon if you aren't used to it, so you need to get the right mh/ml (most people start on 12 or 18.)
My father use to smoke one pack of cigarettes every day. When finally he decided to quit, he used a chewing gum as a replacement for the cigarettes. But after a week he changed chewing gum for a hard candy. When he felt the need to smoke, he sucked a hard candy. After six months he stopped eating candy and smoking.
I smoked for over 30 years. How I stopped was each day I smoked one less and I quite taking them with me when I went some place.
i didnt like the vaping tho it makes me feel dizzy at first 
i dunno if you experience that also or its just me
i dunno if you experience that also or its just me You probably need to adjust the nicotine strength. If you are feeling dizzy or weird it's too high. What strength did you try? A friend of mine told me when he was doing 18mg juice he would sometimes feel naesous/jittery/dizzy if he was vaping for a long time, especially if he had not eaten recently. The same thing would happen if you chugged 3 or 4 cups of coffee in a short time span. When he dropped down to 12mg he was fine.
i dunno as i only try it with my friend vape last year and i dunno also if its the nicotine strength or the beer that er are drinking but im sure im not yet tipsy so maybe he is using a high dosage of nicotine
