best way is not to start . my dad smoked for 30 years and my mom for 26 years and have been quit now for 7 years. my dad went to the doctor rencently and the doc said he had the early stages of COPD (i really dont know what that is. cancer??). i cant see for the life of me why people want to smoke? its just burned money up and shortning your life. anyways good job man and keep it up!!!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!
