Congratulations everyone who has quit or if you're trying. I smoked my last cigarette the evening of August 30th, 2007. Got rid of a toxic friend so decided to get rid of the toxic smokes too.
My husband quit in June using the Chantix. His Dr. told him to or else they wouldn't do his back surgery. He did great on the Chantix. I tried taking them with with him and I just could not stand the upset tummy. I had a couple of patches left so I used those and that was it.
I think you also have to be 'ready' to quit to be successful. I did gain some weight, but I was heavy anyway...so now I'm on Weight Watchers.
Good luck to all of you...you won't believe how much better you'll feel. Oh, my husband and I were lucky too, our insurance did pay for the Chantix.
