Just do it!!!!
You had it right the first time, just do it! Don't make a plan, because your just putting it off.
I think I'm just the opposite of people here. I actually started LCing again, because I stopped smoking. I hadn't smoked for over 3 years then went without a job for 18 mnths and started again 6 months into it. So I smoked this last go around for about a year. This was the 3rd time I had started, I guess you could say I'm a yo-yo smoker. This time I had made a promise to quit once I got a job. Once I finally started my new job it took about two months of reminding myself I was going to quit, then one day I just did it. Something clicked in my head, I made up my mind, and there wasn't anything that was going to stop me.
After about two weeks, I realized. Hey, that stubborn side of me is really paying off for a change. So having lost 30 lbs the prior year doing LC, I decided I would use the same attitude and finish my goal from the year prior. So here I am back at it. The mind is a terrible thing, if you don't use it.
I wish you all the luck in the world in quitting, it is something that is extremely hard to do. But if you get that feeling in your head, you know what I"m talking about, just do it right then. Take the pack and throw it away, no matter how many are left. I've found this is a great place to chat and release for LCing, so use it for smoking as well.
Good luck
