2008-02-10 02:02:00 Hi. Just checking in. I'm 78 days smoke free and off Chantix for 4 weeks. After the week I have had, I really feel like I have have come a long way. My father passed away this week and I have been home with my family. I was determined not to use that as an excuse and I didn't. Everyone stay strong! You can do this! Denise
Hello
2008-02-08 02:22:00 How are you all doing? I'm doing pretty well. Still smokeless in North Carolina. I seem to be on a roll here. I have had numerous temptations but walked away from them. I am happy and feel good. No nausea or anything. I thank everyone for their comments and support. It helps a lot. Take care everyone.
Only 1% of 200 BILLION Dollars And 1 Billion People Dead by 2100
2008-02-07 18:37:00 Only 1% of 200 billion dollars collected by governments worldwide in taxes is spent on tobacco control, according to this news story. Now pause and just think about the numbers. Kind of scary. Hmm, did they factor Chantix into this forecast? :) More About: People , Dead , Dollars , Billion

I'm hanging right in there.
2008-02-06 04:49:00 I have been smokeless for a full week. It would have been 11 days if I hadn't oopsed last Monday. Tomorrow morning will be 8 days. It feels great. I'm feeling pretty good. My stomach hasn't been upset and I'm just going about business as usual. I'll pop a stick of Extra gum in my mouth once in a while. My taste buds are coming back and so is the sense of smell. read more
^#%@#%@#%@#%%#, I can't believe it!
2008-02-05 08:55:00 I caved in. I know, I know. Last friday, I drank with friends, and with the superbowl in my HOME TOWN!! omg. I fell off the cliff. I felt so sick. Just FYI, YOU MUST TAKE YOUR CHANTIX EVERYDAY!!! I didn't, and look what happened. When you get off of it, you don't notice the effect at first, give it 2 days and WHAM it's back. Keep strong guys, I'll be back on the boat soon. read more

Why am I smoking more?
2008-02-04 14:55:00 I started Chantix last Wednesday night. So far I have not cut down and even think I am smoking more. I feel like I have become a serious slave to this addiction. I have been struggling with this issue since a little before new years eve. In desperation I spoke to my doctor about Chantix and got the prescription. I know there is no magic involved here, I just feel so obsessed. read more More About: Smoking

How is Everyone Doing?
2008-02-02 00:21:00 My week has been good. Rough start Monday but went uphill after that. I am still smoke-free after that oops on Monday. I feel pretty good. I figure I have been smoke-free 8 out of 9 days. That is great for me. Even though I fell off the wagon, it wasn't like I smoked a whole pack of cigarettes. I had one and a half. My stomach has been pretty good too. I feel more confident every day. read more

2008-01-28 06:24:00 Hello Everyone. I am 45 yo Female and I live in Florida. I started smoking when I was 12. I have taken several stabs over the last decade at quitting, but for never more than 4-5 weeks and continued to smoke up until 2003 when I was finally able to kick it for good or so I thought. read more More About: Diary , Blog
Day #3
2008-01-27 01:24:00 Well, I'm still smoke-free and have about finished day 3. It has been a pretty good day. I got some sleep last night. That helps a lot too. My appetite started to pick up but find that a piece of Extra gum helps. I still can't believe I'm not smoking. Will someone please pinch me. Take care everyone and hope you are all doing well.

I did it finally
2008-01-26 01:16:00 I have been smoke-free since Wednesday night at 11:00 PM. I have had 2 pretty good days so far. Haven't really had any bad problems with the Chantix. I take it with food and that helps a lot. It was not really planned. I went into the bathroom Thursday morning to take my Chantix and turned around and walked back out without my morning cigarette. I haven't had anything since Wednesday night. read more More About: Finally
