That's fantastic, Gammy45! Been the same for me. I am feeling a little nauseous but I think it is from the patch. urgh I may be tearing this sucker off in the next few days. I don't like it so far. It has given me nightmares (I already decided to take it off at night) and makes me nauseous in the morning. But Day 2... 24 hours! Not bad! We can do it !!

Hi Grammy, Good for you!! Congrats on your decision to quit. Remember quitting will not kill you! I've tried several times myself and this is the longest I've not smoked. I had laser theraphy and for me it works. Drink lots of water as it will flush out that junk within 5 days. Then it will be all mental attachment. I smoked for 40 years and never thought I could do it and so grateful that I am a non smoker now. I like the way I smell and no stink'n smell in the house anymore. Be positive and be gentle to yourself. Acknowlege what you are doing and stay close to this site. The people here are awesome and will help you when you need it. Keep in touch and let us know how you're doing. babs [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 4/26/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 19 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 593 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $99.75 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 2 [B]Hrs:[/B] 7 [B]Mins:[/B] 24 [B]Seconds:[/B] 11

Gammy45, Welcome back to SSC, and congratulations on you decision to quit smoking again...Happy that you said goodbye to the cigarette while crushing it out..Make that the last time you say goodbye to those horrid killers... Hop back on this wagon and ride it to your destination and that is the rest of your life. I have found that it hurts too much to fall off the wagon, and much worse if you fall off the horse. Gave me a headache and hurt my back. Stay strong, and be determined to stay with us. When you need help post and ask for help. And believe me you will get plenty of support and encouragement. So keep on reading and posting and taking one step at a time.... Be blessed, SUNSHINE [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/7/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 128 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 2,186 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $448 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 18 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 58 [B]Seconds:[/B] 29
