So, I quit cold turkey - all going well except I have been chewing regular cherry menthol flavour gum almost constantly since my quit day...the only problem is I keep biting my inside right cheek and it hurts lol - it's all bruised and coverred with teeth marks (I probably bit it 2 - 3 times a day)...still I guess it a small price to pay for the large return...
