Congratulations calgal! What a huge accomplishment. It's hard to stay away from the "smoking spot". I'm wishing you continued success.

I'm just back from the doctor's and have my new prescription. I got nervy and asked for more repeats on it and told him why I think I needed it. I told him how much I really smoked and what my habits were. He agreed to the longer prescription and told me how to, during the last month, gradually wean myself off the meds instead of abruptly stopping. That will help my body cope with being "normal" again.

They have a nurse there who is a quit smoking personal coach and it is free. I signed up for that. Doc says she has some innovative coping strategies that even he was impressed with. I have to call her tomorrow to make my first appointment.

I'm glad I've chosen this route.
