Day Something: Still Here

I’m still here, and still smoke free. My posts were becoming the same old… feeling nauseous, still not smoking, had some cravings. I almost feel like I should have a smoke so that I have something exciting to talk about ;)

I started my second month on Chantix today; time really flies. Now hopefully it flies till I get off the pill. Although I know its probably doing a lot, the fact that I feel like I’ve quit, makes me want to get off it sooner. The plan is to start tapering in the middle of the third month, but I will talk to my doctor first.

  1. Great to hear that you are still hanging in there. Wow, already starting the second month on Chantix. Crazy how fast things go. I’ve been feeling really great about the tapering, and I’m glad I went that route. I started with the last week of pills and just stretched them out for just over an extra week. Some say it makes no difference either way, but mentally, I think it did me good ;) Talking to the doc is always good, even if mine just kind of said “OK, let me know how it goes.” Anyway, you sound great. Keep going!

  2. Sounds like you’re doing great!! I’m going to talk to my doctor about tapering off too…I just can’t imagine stopping at the end of 3 months…we tapered on the meds, so imho, it only makes sense to taper off. of course I’m still in my first month on Chantix so I have a while to go, but I like to plan ahead!

    Continued success to you!!

  3. Congrats!!

  4. Rumor has it you started smoking again. That’s typically what happens when folks abandon their blogs on this subject. Can you confirm or deny this rumor? Inquiring minds want to know

  5. :) No, still not smoking. Tomorrow is my one month anniversary. I’ll post then.

  6. Happy “anniversary!” Glad to know you are still with it.
