When I quit, he just stood back and watched from the sidelines. I had support from my sister and my girls (thank you!) but everyone else around me was/is a smoker. I'm really unsure of the best way for me to support him.

Anyone do anything for you guys while you were quitting that was particularily helpful?
Offer him "adult fun" beyond whatever is normal for you guys when he reaches certain milestones (one week, two weeks, one month, etc.). I can't imagine a better motivator for a guy.
