Everyone who has tried to quit smoking have experienced the quit smoking symptoms, withdrawal symptoms, that makes you want to start again. In that situation you need some extra motivation to stay on the right track. You already know of the stop smoking benefits, but what happens when you stop smoking is that when the withdrawal symptoms are the strongest, you might forget all the good reasons to quit smoking.
One tool to remind you and help you remember all the is a Quit Smoking Meter or Quit Smoking Calculator. The quit smoking meters comes in many different shapes and colors, but what they basically do is to keep track of how long time you have not smoked, how much money you have saved not smoking and, most importantly, how much your life has been prolonged due to your smoking cessation. None of them take into account the costs of quitting smoking. How much does a quit smoking pill costs? Or other quit smoking medication? Or quit smoking acupuncture?
Some of the quit smoking meters are free, while others costs a small amount. A lot of quit smoking websites offer a quit smoking meter when you sign up their quit smoking program.
