Doing great there, Jazz!!
congrats to you and Hubby for getting hell week behind you! It really is great that you are doing this together. I am sure it does make it easier (hope so anyway ;p) It really does get easier from here on!

Barry is still on the 21mg. It is much easier with us both quitting. We have not had much luck with quitting separately.
Congrats to you and your hubby :)

Hi Joy - congrats to you and your husband. I think it will be easier with both quitting, rather than watching one sneak outside for a quick puff! How is your husband finding the patch - did he start on the 21 mg as well?

Hi Jazz,
Hubby and I quit together as well. We are working on day 8 today. He is using the patch and I am using lozenges. I don't think I could do this without some sort of NRT. I have cut down from the 2mg to the 1mg.
Have a great day.
Joy

Thanks Freedom. Both my husband and I have our full 10 week supply already, so we'll keep going to the end of box 10. I guess when they're already at the house, there's no reason to cut off early. I am finding that I get the shakes about 2 hours after I put it on, and they last for about 3 hours or so. Josie suggested that I might need to re-adjust my doseage, but I'm afraid to as I don't want to interrupt the program. I'm hoping they'll just stop on their own.

Just make sure to follow it right to the end of program otherwise you might find a craving sneaking up on you! That's what happened to me, so I knew I wasn't ready to quit the patch halfway through just to save money, I am glad at this point that I made that decision. Good for you, hell week is almost over! Keep up the good work!
