candi Good for you, your moving forward. You don't need cigarettes, fact is they need you (and your money)...Keep moving forward, eventually you will wonder why you ever smoked at all... nonic [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]12/25/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 262 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 7,860 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,834.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 47 [B]Hrs:[/B] 19 [B]Mins:[/B] 18 [B]Seconds:[/B] 7

I have mad an accomplishment today. My sister asked me to get her a pack of cigarettes I didnt want to cuz i knew i might be tempted to buy myself a pack. But i went to the store cussing her out the whole time and bought her a pack. I talked to myself not to open her pack and smoke it. (I hope the driver next to me didnt see me talking he proably thought i was nuts lol) So for me that was really hard and then i was so proud of myself but then tonight my craving got a little stronger but i been fighting them off with all i have. 13 years of smoking wich is half my life i dont want it to controll me anymore.

Congrats on your quit! I am using Chantix and LOVE LOVE LOVE it! I have actually weaned off a bit, but it works as long as you are motivated. Sounds like you have a couple of great reasons to quit - your kids. Hope to see you around ALOT - it sure helps.

Candi, Hang in there! I quit for good using Chantix. It was my third attempt in a year and the meds really did work for me. Yes, you will sense a declining need to smoke so go with it. After two weeks on the drug, I lost interest in smoking and I had now physical withdrawal symptoms. But, you have to tackle the habit and addiction. Like you, there were certain routines where I always smoked. Be aware of the triggers and tackle them one at a time. Within a week, I was really happy to sit at Starbucks (outside!) and not want to smoke. I am 10 weeks on Chantix and getting ready to taper off. I had some side effects (strange dreams, constipation) so drink lots of water and walk or exercise to keep your mind clear. YOU CAN DO IT!

I never thougth I could ever go this many days without cigarettes. Here I am still smoke free. My son (he is 7) is so proud of me saying i am glad your off those drugs. I keep telling him dont ever ever try a cigarette look at how much I am going thru to quite. But with the chantix i been preety good. Mild craving but if i get kinda strong one i just keep thinking I want to see my boys grow up and have kids of there own. I notice the smell from my husband when he smokes on the portch and i feel so bad having my kids usto live with that smell. And I have 2 sister who are smokers and there saying if I can quite they gonna do it. One of my sister is 10 weeks pregnant. She has cut down but i never did when i was pregnant and i keep telling her i am very thankful my kids came out healthy. So hopefully they will quite too [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]9/6/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 5 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 200 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $39.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 30 [B]Seconds:[/B] 8
