How did you start this bad habit?
 
When I have the urge to smoke, I usually have some meth to make it go away. Works great, and I finally don't have to sleep anymore!

Switching to mints was a life-saving move, but 16 packs a month is too much sugar or sweetener for your heart and stomach. Try to cut the habit in half so you don't replace one addiction with another.
 
I know someone who did the same but with lollypops :)
 
Respect for quitting after a heart attack. That’s not easy. :)

Using Halls mints to control the urge is actually a smart way to replace the habit. The main thing is you stayed off cigarettes since 2020, and that’s a big win for your health. Keep going

just so everyone knows i see a heart specialist every December
since 2021 - they run blood tests on my cholestrol which
currently atands at 2.7 that is a combo of good/bad cholestrol
2.7 is considered low .

as for my blood sugar i asked the doc to explain the numbers
in terms of to much sugar....

he said the following. the numbers 36-44 is pre diabetic
44 and over is DIABETIC. he knows i eat lots of MINTS

he said only once in 5 yrs was i close to diabetic with a
score of 44, that was 2021 - my current blood sugar score
is 36, he told me this Dec 2025 both my sugar/cholestrol
are within exceptable norms. even with all my mints

throw in taking 4 heart medication tablets a day
+ 2 vitD tablets a day - 1 vitamin c tablet a day.
20kmg of omega fish oil a day. and 45kmg of
garlic oil a day......

im keeping the mints and i hold up well for 56
