All my free time, I do spend online. A specially logged in mylot. I use mylot almost every day and I think it is god for your health. At least if you are a smoker. I have reduced my smoking habbits since I started being online as much as I am. The other time I am not online I am at work, and there you are only allowed to smoke when you have a break. I would say, mylot is helping me increasing my god health, and saving money while making money. is that not great?

It may be very difficult to stop from a habit, especially if you've been smoking for a long number of years. I'm very happy for your success and keep it up! I'm sure that seeing good results both in your health and pocket too will keep you off this habit.

Yes, this site does real great things for many people. Some looking for friends to talk things about but do not really tell about who you are. Keeping people in god health is also one important thing. I just came to the thought myself today, have not think about befoe. But I am glad, saving money int those time is the best thing. Happy Mylotting and thanks for response.

So when you are at home you don't smoke in your house? I don't smoke in my house so when I am online in mylot I don't smoke much either because I have to go outside to smoke. So thanks to mylot I am smoking less. And now that 5 months have passed since you posted this wonderful discussion, are you still smoking less or are you taking more breaks when online and going for a smoke? I find when I am bored online I take a lot more breaks and go smoke outside and so I am still smoking lots. But when I am excited about working online I tend to take a lot less breaks so I smoke a lot less. Good luck with quitting or cutting back, on those nasty things. I wish I could quit but I guess I don't wish it enough or I would be a nonsmoker.

No I still keep my maner..that is, I do enjoy my self and keep my fingers busy. I do intend to be a non - smoker so therefore I still work on it. And now, we finally got some rules for smoking at work. However, I am still not satisfied with it, since I like to see a totaly non - smoking enviroment. Or even better, I´d like to see the gouvernments all over the world, make, producing and selling tobaco in any form illegal. That would help us out a lot better, what is not allowed, you do not do...right. And then I think they should put more efforts and try to help the once who can not just put out the last one...

This is terrific ! It's just wonderful how mylot helps to keep you busy most of the time and indirectly reduce your somking habits. Although sitting in front of your computer all day may not be a very healthy thing to do also, but at least it helps on the other side of it - which is reducing your smoking habits. Congratulations and keep it up !

Thank you for response, and welcome to mylot, hope you enjoy it as much as I do. You know I used to have a smoke when I tok a break from mylot, but now I do other stuff while surfing and mylotting. I usually go away for some time, to take care of cleaning, I take care of laundry, cooking dinner. So I just do not sit here all the time, but instead of go out for a smoke I take care of indoors stuff like I mentioned. I have done this now for several months and noticed that my NEED of smoking has reduced. I no longer feel a press since I do not think of my need of smoking. I guess my need of nicotine has reduced a lot. Just becouse I have been cought up with mylot, and time goes so fast when you are online.

Well from a Non-Smoker it is good that you are finding the Will power to not be able to smoke as much. Maybe in time you will want to quit altogether but I do believe being online can do a lot of Good in other ways as well. I actually most of the time find myself eating less as well as I am always busy surfing, checking Email, or posting here in myLot if I am online as well. It can be a Good thing for us as long as we learn to not let the Computer or being online control us and effect our family life, etc. as well.

Yep, mylot helps with lots of things. You can get help from others. But selfhelp your self is the best thing of them all. I do hope this will reduce my smoke habbits to zero one day. It will be a day to celebrate. And I am not addicted to computer or being online. I do it for fun, for relaxing and sty tune to friend and a little home business of mine. Happy posting and thanks for response.

hello anetteh, Wow! Knowing that mylot is doing a big change to you every time that you're in the site, I can say that you're doing a good job. I really salute you for that. At least you can prevent smoking and that is a good start. And for that at least you can minimize smoking or even better if you can totally prevent it. And you're right, you'll have a better health and you can earn extra money at the same time. For while you're doing some post, making response to the discussion, it will really impossible to smoke at the same time for you'll be distructed by smoking.

Yes, I hope one day be able to say - I am no longer a smoker. And if it work as it does now, I am shore not long away from it. No, even if woman have the ability to do two or more things at once, smoking is not one of them, I never smoke indoors. The smell is terrible.

Actually, I do not do much really. Just keep posting, and surfing and have my fingers on the keyboard. I just came a cross about the thougt when I realized it had take a rather long time between the smokebrakes. Many people I know smoke indoors, not me and I guess it makes it easier to stay indoors when you are doing something you found enjoyble as Mylot really is. Thank you and happy posting.

MyLot is good for you all round! Good on you for quitting smoking. I quit 15 years ago and I am so glad I did especially now that I have a child. It is a matter of replacing a bad habit with a good one and joining MyLot has done that by replacing smoking time with discussion time!

I usually did have a smokebrake during some housholdwork, now days I take brake and go online. It´s far mor benefit and far mor fun. And stay indoors these cold days is also to prefer.

It kind of make glad and happy. thank you for response and happy posting.

that is wonderful that you are cutting back on the smoking. I know so many people right now that want to quit and that would be so great if everyone can, it took my mom almost 3 yrs to quit and she has been so happy since she kicked that habit. Keep up the good work at not smoking so much and maybe just by habit and working on more time mylotting and less smoking you will quit soon.. good luck!!!

I am shore, I will be able to say - I am a non smoker....Oh how nice it would be. I would be one of the happy people who made it. But, as always, it is a hard work to do. And Mylot will be one of my helper. But I hope my bos at work, one day will say...no more smoking at work. It would be the greatest. thanks and happy posting.

You know, stop smoke inside. I never do, and if I have to smoke I have to go out. But since I am on the keyboard and writing my fingers are busy and my addiction are reduced so.....I do not feel the need of the smoke. I guess, many smoke indoors, that make it harder to stop since you can do both. Thanks for response, have a nice day

That is very great. I do believe that MyLot is good for the health. You can get things off your chest that is bothering you and that helps keep the stress down. Also that it is helping you reduce what you smoke is outstanding. Not only does that help your health there but it also helps you save money. Good Job.

Yes, I am so happy just thinking about it. And far better is, when reducing smoking habbits, and stop smoking make some uf us increase weight as a lack. But since there is no shops near by, I have driver license and taking the bus is to much work to do, I rather stay online and keep on writing and the need of sweets and smoke just disapear. That is really great. I just came up with a goal, to save my money for something really nice to my home. happy mylotting and thank you for response.
