I bought the patch today.
So tomorrow morning I'm putting it on and I'm really really going to try and quit. I've been noticing for some time now that I'm extremely short of breath. Since I've had pneumonia and bronchitis so many times it just makes sense to go ahead and quit. Please remind me I said all this in about a month. Wish me luck.

Good luck. I am in the process of quitting chewing. Tough....found better success with the gum myself.
Good luck sweetie.
I just can't seem to give them up yet.
I see you,

Actually, it has been proven that the best way to stop is to quit putting nicotine in your system. Patches and gum keep the body recognizing that it is getting nicotine and thus the cravings rarely cease. It only takes a short time for the nicotine to leave the body after you stop. Just food for thought. And cravings only last a maximut of 90 seconds. I have Allan Carr's "The Easy Way to Stop Smoking" if you want to borrow it.
Thanks. Maybe I'll wait until I get down to the 7 mg. patch. I tore off this morning's patch and bought a pack of cigs. One day at a time.
good luck
How is it going???
