Day 1 SMOKE FREE!
Hi,Today is the 10th of my champix treatment. Tomorrow was supposed to be my quit day but actually I cannot smoke one more day. Yesterday in a gathering with some friends, I had my 2nd cigarette of the day (the 1st was at 4:30pm) and I felt so sick smelling my cig and the ones of others around me that I had to leave and go rest. Strong nausea and headache. I confirm: as soon as you reach the full dosage (1mg twice/day) you feel differently...almost disgusted of the cig. Champix has also helped me to be calmer, to sleep longer, and smell my own perfume :))))This is my first day and I'm confident I can make it. I cross my fingers!!!Good luck to all!!!
You will do it HR. Just stay positive and keep thinking how much you LOVE not smoking... It is such a brilliant feeling to be free of it. Well done and keep going. I know you can do it. Im on day 40 (with the help of Champix)...

So well done HR and keep strong. TanyaBee well done on day 40 amazing achievement. Good luck to all on staying on track...
