 NEW!   Afraid of downloading quitting counter programs into your computer or on the road traveling? QuitSmokingCounter.com offers the first online quit smoking meter that allows users to calculate their quit smoking statistics in either U.S. or Euro Dollars, copy the results to their computer's clipboard and transport them for easy pasting onto message boards or into e-mails.




Harry's Quit Counter


A pack-a-day Greek software designer, on April 21, 2003 Harry went "cold turkey" claiming freedom from nicotine, and on June 6th unveiled his own meter. Graphically themed upon the milestone clubs of WhyQuit's Freedom from Tobacco (a forum dedicated exclusively to the art and science of abrupt nicotine cessation), aside from just helping you celebrate all major milestones, users are awarded Green status at one month, their quits are "Bronzed" at 3 months, turn Silver at midyear, and are awarded Gold status at one year. In addition to tracking standard features such as time quit, cigarettes not smoked, and money and life saved, Harry's meter offers the unique ability to not only track the quit statistics of others (friends, family and online favorites) but also to easily copy their latest statistics to your computer's clipboard (as well as your own) for quick pasting in message board posts and e-mails. With one click you'll see all the latest milestones of each quitter entered and with another click you can send them an e-mail of "support." Yes, at last, a meter design to not only foster and celebrate your own achievement, but to interactively support and encouragement the continuing success of those around you!


Quit Keeper


Quit Keeper 1.08 is a free quit meter that tracks various statistics as you quit smoking, including how long you have been quit, money saved, cigarettes not smoked, life saved and listing anniversaries. It allows for posting of stats and also tracks the increasing price of cigarettes. It's a quick, small download of only about 100k.

"The current version of SilkQuit calculates the time you have been quit, the total amount of money not spent on your habit, and the time you've saved by not smoking. Your quit duration is shown in years, calendar months, weeks, hours, minutes and seconds. By using a configurable hot-key combination you can paste detailed quit information into any document, handy if you're involved with an online support forum."


Quit Time

Quit Time is another Windows 95/98 quitmeter that shows you how long you've been smoke-free, how many cigarettes you haven't smoked, how much money you've saved and how much longer you might live by not smoking.


Smoking Cost Calculator

Factoring for inflation (the ever increasing cost of cigarettes) how much will smoking cost you each year, between now and your 69th birthday, if you fail to keep your dependency under arrest? Within seconds, this nifty online tool will create an online chart showing you.


Online Quit Smoking Calculator

This is another online quit smoking calculator for when you are away from your computer, out of town on business or vacation holiday, or simply don't feel safe downloading one of the programs shown on this page. Although it does not allow one click copying to your computer's keyboard, as does the new counter featured above (at QuitSmokingCounter.com), simply hold down your mouse button while dragging over it, and then right click and select "copy," you'll copy the results to your computer's clipboard. You'll now be able to paste the results into any e-mail, word processing program or online messaeboard simply by either right clicking and selecting "paste," or clicking on the paste icon (a clipboard with a piece of paper in front) on your browser, e-mail, word processing, or message composition tool bar. If still stumped, here's a link that will help you to learn how to copy and paste.

Bryan Lee Curtis

Quit meters can be fun but with nicotine smoking having a 50% adult kill rate you truly are engaged in a life or death struggle. Have you met Bryan, Noni, Sean, Kim or any of the more than two million middle-aged nicotine addicts who each year wait too long and allow their addiction to kill them?

Knowledge is power and we strongly encourage you to read, read, read!  Like the true alcoholic, your dependency is a permanent condition. If you are to keep it arrested and remain on this side of the bars there is only one rule that absolutely guarantees success to all - no nicotine today, Never Take Another Puff, Dip or Chew!

The next few minutes will always be doable!
