<prompt> Human: Hi PF. I was a smoker for 7 years. Tried vaping, but it actually made my lungs feel even worse and gave me a chronic cough. Although it has worked magic for some of my friends. March 3rd I went cold turkey and have felt great ever since. Ive been tracking my stats with an app called QuitNow!Here are my stats as of today. 148 days without smoking. Cigarettes not smoked, 2,379 Every single day Im shocked by how huge this number isMoney saved: 832.65Time saved: 9d, 21h, 55m the app assumes 6 minutes per cigarette I believe Edit: I guess I misspoke. I just noticed that I passed 800 today. In reality it was a few days ago, but Im experiencing the milestone today, haha. edit2: all of these numbers assumed an average of 16 cigarettes per day at I think 6.50 per pack.Assistant: Youve probably saved far more than that in future medical bills.Human: Hopefully! According to my app Im 8 of the way to having the same chance of developing lung cancer as a non smoker. Im not sure how exactly somebody arrived at that number, but Its definitely a great motivator!  <response>: I think its based on population studies where they look at cancer rates amongst people who stopped smoking vs. people who never smoked. The risk does decline after you stop smoking. People think about the cancer risk, but what is far, far more likely than cancer is chronic lung diseases like COPD, chronic bronchitis, etc. Those may not be cancer, but they can still kill you. And even if they dont, theyll decrease your quality of life. So congrats on quitting, its a huge benefit to your health and therefore your wallet!
