Three weeks/two days solo

Hello everyone , hope everyone is doing well. It has been an interesting few weeks. I am clear from champix just stopped, weaned off the last few days . I feel alot better more clear headed which was important to me. I still cannot believe I am three weeks smoke free its great, its massive for me I couldn't go three hours before unless I was asleep. Was out yesterday for a run , and much much better output, muscles can take more, and chest too. I found myself thinking this is brill no coughing or having to stop start. All I can say is it felt good and slept well. My skin has had a few breakouts but easing off now. Had expereinced desperate headahces a few days back but they are gone now thank god. So all in all it is early days but going good. Getting cravings the last few days were hard the one more, go on, were awful , but got through just distracted myself , cleaning , brush the teeth , which does help. They are getting whiter by the day which I am liking alot. So all and all happy days. I hope everyone is doing well ....... I have met so many non smokers recently it seems to be great conversation starter . I am a non-smoker and proud .......

well done Converse I am on my 3rd day smokefree, agree I have to think or do something else. looking forward to whiter teeth ^ smelling sweeter-my taste is better already feeling positive with no ill effects from champix Ammy

U must be so proud Converse... Congrats!!! I've finally had my first 'smoke free' day...yay!

Awesome news Converse, great to see you are off those horrible champix, I tried the Zyban couple of years ago and they were also terrible. Anyway good to hear your exercise is going well,Yes my teeth are losing the stain daily as well, soo good to hear your going well. Stay strong and keep up the fight.

Thanks everyone, for you kind words, Well done ammy on 3day's and Annie and lollymarch,Kay,and Mr Golf well done on your progress also. I feel alot better all round more alert if that makes sense. I got this stuff for whitening teeth it seems to be helping the process along too. Thanks everyone and keep going this is one of the best choices we have all made.
Well done Converse and before you know it, it will be 3 months without a smoke. So keep up the good work.

Well done proud of you to. It must feel good to say I'm a non smoker will keep following you, stay strong.

Wow youve quit the champix already...Im day 60 and still have a week to go on champix and have decided to go the full distance as I dont want to fail and regret finishing early. I really hope it all works for you Converse..I never had the guts to finish early...but having just gone thru tests for lung cancer before I took tabs I guess Im just wanting to make sure I take the full course...the very best of luck to you I hope it all works out as you want x

was feeling a bit hyperactive etc so am halving dose to half twice a day. Day 19 without a smoke still get that niggle sometimes but do something else- feel good and can smell & taste much better- will try and finish course of champix ammy
