I have now stopped smoking for 3 days, 12 hours, 11 minutes, 45 seconds. That translates into 70 cigarettes NOT smoked, for a savings of $16.97! I have increased my life expectancy by 5 hours, 50 minutes, 48 seconds.
At 20 minutes after quitting:
blood pressure decreases
pulse rate drops
body temperature of hands and feet increases.
At 8 hours:
carbon monoxide level in blood drops to normal
oxygen level in blood increases to normal
At 24 hours:
chance of a heart attack decreases
At 48 hours:
nerve endings start regrowing
ability to smell and taste improve
Not smoking during the Thon when you recently quit must be hard. Kudos to you.
