what's weird is that last year, i worked out all the time. and i'd get back to my room, shower, and then go have a cigarette. it was immensely satisfying every time.

lol yeah...I was the same way after dance class. In fact, one of my habits that I still get a little antsy about is after my drills class my friend and I would go sit in one of our cars and have a cigarette before we parted ways. Since then, we've both been bringing pot sometimes so we can still have that moment but without the cigarettes.

If you want to do yourself a favor, break yourself of that habit now and maybe instead, just wait 15 or 20 minutes after working out. Otherwise as soon as you quit and go to work out to curb your cravings, you'll be tearing your hair out afterward.

The hardest part is just when your brain EXPECTS to have a cigarette. Mine were also on the way home from work, after cleaning the house, after eating and while I'm sitting on the computer at home. (i.e., "triggers")

I smoke so little now it's pretty much like not smoking. But when I enjoy a cocktail, I like to enjoy a smoke.

KrazeeStacee · 03-11-2008, 03:59 PM

You start to notice that cigarettes aren't doing anything for you..and for me, it was really only a little frustrating for 2 days. Then I was ready to quit and I was able to do so without any of the insanity.

You're supposed to take it for 12 weeks but I got mine through a friend so I only had enough for about a month. After a few weeks I was tired of having to remember to take the pills and I felt like I was alright to get off them, so I did and I've been fine. I believe the only reason they tell you to stay on them for so long is because they really do make cigarettes taste horrible because they aren't giving you any of the positive feelings you feel when you smoke...so in case you slip up and have one here or there, it ends up being nasty and you don't start smoking again.

I think the FDA just approved that it can be taken for an addition 12 weeks, if necessary.

Whoa! That stuff makes you hallucinate some crazy things.

Hell yeah it does! Well, crazy dreams anyhow. I didn't mind that part though. Plus it only lasted for 2 weeks and once I was ready to get off it, the only thing I noticed was that I'd get sick if I didn't eat enough before taking them. That's what really pissed me off because I don't eat a lot at lunch and I'd end up sick every day. Plus I'm just bad at remembering.

Trotskilicious · 03-12-2008, 11:28 AM

yeah I quit smoking without pills.

what's the point of quitting smoking and then buying pills that will cost as much if not more than a cigarette habit? it's fucking retarded. Stop being weak.

because eventually you don't need the pills anymore? what the fuck? remember when you chastised her for getting pills with nicotine in them when her pills didn't have nicotine in them? sometimes you need to resist the urge to be a useless dick.

there are more benefits since the pills doesn't have the same damaging effects on the respiratory epitelia, doesn't increase the risk to get lung cancer for example. even if you pay as much for the pills as for the cigarrettes that you previously smoked, it's still a better deal. also all people aren't as prone to getting addicted to nicotine due to how their dopamine releasing systems work. in short: stop trying to take advantage of and brag about even the smallest, most pointless little accomplishments in your life.

For the second time, I didn't pay for the pills (plus if you have insurance, they're probably covered and only cost you like $5 which is less than a pack of smokes).

...and I may be weak when it comes to quitting smoking but at least I can balance my check book like a big girl.

Congrats Stacee!

Many of my friends used Chantix to help them quit smoking, and they all swear by it. The only complaint I ever heard about them, is something like you have to drink so many glasses of water a day...and by the time you're done taking the Chantix you can't stand water. Although that probably varies person to person....maybe this guy just didn't like water to begin with.

I'll probably quit smoking when I quit my job. About 90% of my coworkers smoke, so smoke breaks are the most exciting part of the day for me.....

KrazeeStacee · 03-12-2008, 12:11 PM

Yeah I don't like water much either and you do have to drink a lot of water with it but it's not more than you should be drinking anyway. I was just annoyed with the fact that you have to eat a FULL meal or else you'll get sick. Value meals I get for my lunch weren't enough and I'd end up feeling nauseous from 1-4pm every day

But either way it's still totally worth it. I recommend it to anyone looking to quit.
