I quit "cold Turkey" several years ago for health reasons...it was tuff since my friends and co-workers and wife smoked but in the end I persevered. Gained about 25lbs but have since lost and kept it off.
My Wife started the Chantrix program about 6mos ago after smoking for nearly 35 years. She hasn't smoked since and swears by the product...and hasn't gained any weight.

With the VA Pharmacy not carrying Chantix,that left me to finding a Doc to write me up for it.
Went to a local "Doc in a Box" to see if they would do it.
Didn't quite expect the response I got.She,the Dr., broke into a big smile and couldn't have been happier to see me get on Chantix and quit smoking.She was certainly a lot more excited about it than I was.
There is a CVS store right next door.Went over and got the first month filled.Dropped back by the house to drop it off.
Took "Day 1" at noon today !!!  |

Fred
Good start. Now all you have to do is go thru day 1.
Have you thrown away all cigs in the house, garage, cellar, cars, etc?
I did an internet search on Chantix and found that a side effect is that it makes you YOUNGER. I can just see you in a few years .... open pic to get full effect ....

"The most common adverse events associated with CHANTIX (>5% and twice the rate seen in placebo-treated patients) were nausea, sleep disturbance, constipation, flatulence, and vomiting. "
Oh I can see it now .... barfing and farting ... Good Luck

I thought they put farting in there so they could show the upside to their meds. |

You have to talk yourself into it and make yourself believe that you really want to quit. After that what ever "crutch" you use will carry you through.
I used the patch, had to start over three times, but it worked.

Fred,
That is great. And congratulations to Warren too. You have both proven that it can be done and it sounds as if your system is really starting to clean itself up.
