I took the money I would have spent on ciggs and bought a kayak. Then the money wasn't there anymore! The biggest thing for me was my hubby wanted to quit at the same time. It is too hard when the other is still smoking. I have one on a occasion now but only on occasion. My dh says he could never pick one up again cause he knows he would start up. We started drinking sparkling water when we quit. It was weird it was like the bubbles burning the back of our throats kinda gave us the feeling of smoking......strange I know but it worked. Good luck and come back for support anytime you need it! Just don't pick it up! Just walk away! And think to yourself "I have gone this far I can go even further" Also take up knitting! I did and it help with the figit part.
