Hi! I'm new here

but this is Day 40 of my quit. I was a two pack a day smoker for 25 years, so it has been tough, but well worth it! I am using the patch (14MG now) and the doctor just prescribed Wellbutrin for me last week to help with the weight gain element. I'd love to meet all of you!

Thank you Brent! 66 Days! How is it going for you? It seems like each week is a little different for me. Lynda

Wow, Redrosie what an awesome welcome! I am a little leery about downgrading my patches. I just barely went to 14 from 21 and I did notice a bit of a difference. It might be all in my head though! I am so happy to be here! Lynda

Hi redrosie! (I am a rose growing fanatic, so I am really bonding with your name!) I overextended my time with the 21 MG, so I have only been on the 14s 3 days. Just when I was on target to switch a family occassion came up where I knew I was going to be around smokers around the clock for a few days so I bought another box of 21s instead of making the switch. (Chicken! I may be a little overprotective of this Quit!) After this box, I go to 7s though. They are starting to get terribly itchy! When I went for a checkup last week the nurse broke into a bad case of the giggles when she saw all the little red circles all over me! Lynda

Thank you Josie! I feel really positive about this Quit, but not so over confident I wouldn't welcome some support now and then! Lynda

Lou: It sounds like you could realy benifit from the patch. Does your state offer the patches for free? I have been on the patch since 1/1/06 and they have helped. The cravings are still there but they are easier to cope with. Stay strong and keep posting. Just reading the posts of others has helped me a lot. it is important to know that you are not alone!

40 days, that is awesome! I am going on 8 days. I'm doing the Lindora online program while I'm quitting in hopes of not gaining weight.. hopefully I'll even lose some. I lost one whole pound last week. I cheated a bit on the diet but I did not smoke! Great to meet you. The smoke meter is a great little program, I highly recommend it. I love to come home and find out how many cigs I have not smoked. Welcome.
