I'm finally over the smoking cigarettes I hope LOL. I used the smoking aid, nicotine transdermal system 14mg, then the 7mg and nicotine lozenges 2mg for the cravings. I was surprised that it wasn't hard as I thought it would be. It's been two months smoke-free and counting. Just wanted to share my story with someone who might be thinking about quitting too. I'm feeling so much better breathing and food taste better also. I must admit I'm gaining a few pounds LOL but I'm working out more now as well to offset the increase of my appetite.

Congratulations on being smoke free! :-)

I've used the patch in the past and found it easy, but I also kept busy and walked a lot which really helped me while using the patch. I quit for a few years, but dummy me I started up again :-( I've been a smoker close to 50 years, but now idk how to quit and I want to so badly, but I'm in a wheelchair and can no longer walk or stay busy :-(

I didn't mean to go on about me.. I wish you the best on your journey through life being smoke free :-) and yes the wieght gain happens, but not much, It seems you have that under control :-) Again Congratulations!!!

God is good
