giving up smoking forever

[CherryBlossom]

DAY 1 - STEP 1

Just on my first lozenge and guess what it tastes like crap lol

dosage for me

STEP 1- weeks 1-6: lozenge every 1-2 hours at least 9 a day

STEP 2 - weeks 7-9: lozenge every 2-4 hours

STEP 3 - weeks 10-12: lozenge every 4-8 hours only when really tempted

Good luck hunni i know you can do it

Why dont you try the gum? The boots own one is not too bad. It doesnt taste quite as bad as the lozenges.

Day 2

well I have been up since 10am and had 1 fag at 2:30pm so am really proud of that. as for the gum i might have to wait till tuesday (we get paid then) as darren had a sick day and we are skint atm have been thinking of looking on ebay to see if they are cheaper.

Also, ladies you might look into a pill called Chantix. I don't know if it is available in the UK, but I used it to quit, and it made it much much easier. I didn't have horrible withdrawls, I just got to the point where I could not be bothered to smoke.

[biteable]

[biteable]

yep still ere and still going strong,dont get me wrong i still want 1 now and again but its not the nicotine i crave its just the hand to mouth at certain times.I always found that if i didnt have the 1st one in the morning i could do alot better all day
