I have heard great things about Champix but it's not a miracle cure; will power is still needed and if this post was made on Day 2 then you have already started on this journey and I wish you the VERY BEST for total success!

The other one just stopped Chantix cold turkey and had some health issues with serious depression and such. I do hear that it takes about two weeks or so to really notice a difference so just hang in there.

I felt horrible.<br />I gave up with the help of patched and gum but all I needed to do really was looking at my partner's mum who after smoking heavily for 40 years collapsed and is now unable to walk anywhere and suffering terrible smoke-related illnesses like asthma, bronchitis, emphysema etc and she can't breath. Even cooking is hard for her. She's only 65. I watch her and am grateful I have stopped.<br />Just take 1 day at a time.Mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04366174731849947941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1716142892678053809.post-55892063788470722682010-07-28T20:49:29.659+01:002010-07-28T20:49:29.659+01:00Brilliant news Deb, you can do it, just think of a...Brilliant news Deb, you can do it, just think of all that spare cash for craft goodies.......what more of an incentive do you want.....LOLlil-paper-pixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07958877182951946923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1716142892678053809.post-42255272915617405242010-07-28T20:23:44.762+01:002010-07-28T20:23:44.762+01:00Good luck with this.

Maybe it was just all in their heads after one said she stopped after reading it, but whatever it was, it worked!<br />I have a copy of it somewhere but can't remember the name of it...will have to see if I can find it.<br />Let us know how you get on with the tablets. I too really need to stop but my partner smokes too and has no intrest in quitting so I find it really hard to try stopping when he is still smoking.<br />Hugs Lora xLorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15974862884939553690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1716142892678053809.post-33728539916249740842010-07-28T08:53:06.283+01:002010-07-28T08:53:06.283+01:00Welcome to the club of "Crabby Mummy's&qu...Welcome to the club of "Crabby Mummy's" and I got in without giving up smoking, keep going Debbi, it'll get easier every day x Just think of all the extra pennies you'll have to spend on crafty things!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13000387811383377440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1716142892678053809.post-44273577866478155912010-07-28T07:25:15.037+01:002010-07-28T07:25:15.037+01:00I stopped smoking about 18 years ago but I do reme...I stopped smoking about 18 years ago but I do remember how hard it was.

But then a number of medical problems for loved ones hit all at the same time and, you guessed it, I grabbed the cigs. Hope that it helps that you've announced it.

Except I have a really sweet tooth and I find it really difficult not to eat sweeties and chocolate etc. Especially as I'm working full-time for 2 weeks and I get very bored. Pity you can't craft in a post office!! <br /><br />On the plus side my colleague and her husband have successfully given up smoking and several other people I know of. They have all used the tablets so maybe you just need to hang on in there.<br /><br />Kat xxKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08495187665181991202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1716142892678053809.post-88381638142584254312010-07-27T21:22:15.772+01:002010-07-27T21:22:15.772+01:00Hi there,
Just to say I really enjoy reading your ...Hi there,<br />Just to say I really enjoy reading your postings and looking at the wonderful projects you produce.<br /><br />Re the smoking - although this may look a really strange thing to do, you may like to look on YouTube under EFT and smoking. These are a couple of videos that are basic and straight forward to follow: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUkhZC9pqI8 <br />and <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVyEr1W_XPs&feature=related . <br /><br />I personally haven't had to use EFT for any smokers but have used it for those with chocolate cravings and it surprises people how it can kill the craving dead. You may have to be prepared to do it fairly regularly to start with; it looks a bit odd but it does give you another choice and costs nothing other than a little of your time. It's something you can do while you are on the phone, once you remember the tapping points, and whenever you feel a craving strike.<br /><br />Hope that helps.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />KarenKaren Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10713011875697122670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1716142892678053809.post-54055454390483438122010-07-27T21:13:48.083+01:002010-07-27T21:13:48.083+01:00Debbi, you hang in there girl.
