my story
Hello everyone im 24 i am now smoke free for five days and its been easy ive been out to pubs with smokers everywhere i havr had stressful days (mother of a six year old girl and four year old girl). I am on the champix program day 11 :) its been great i take them with breakfast and tea i dont crave a ciggerette i chose day 7 on my pack to quit and i am so proud of myself i think i can safely say i will never pick a ciggerette up again. Because i know its killing me and i dont want my children to see me suffering down the track so far i have saved $58 dollars havnt smoked 45 ciggies and i have gained 8 hours of life( thats what my quit calculator has told me i dont smell like a ashtray my skin looks better and im brearhing better i suppose it all comes down to will power and detirmination yo all can do it if you make yourself believe in yourself... ivsmoked flat out since the tender age of 14 thats 9 years and i do regret it but we all have weaknesses we just have to fight for our lifes and be happy im just glad i quit now

Excellent ..I am on Champix too (4th week now), my skin has improved as well. Circles around my eyes almost gone. Can hug my kids anytime without thinking how bad I may be smelling. My sense of smell and taste is much sharper.
Keep up the good work...
