Today I saw my nurse and was awarded a certificate for being 4 weeks smoke free. I now don't have to see the nurse for another 2 months - so after the initial 4 weeks the pressure is off. This could be dangerous!
It has been a week since I decided to stop taking the Champix - and it has been increasingly difficult. I have had the occasional puff on a cigarette - which disappointed me but seemed so absolutely necessary at the time. I am going to keep at it as I don't want to go back to where I was 4 weeks ago - and have set myself a new goal to aim towards to help me have a focus ... I am due to go away for a few days for a hen do in May and I intend to be completely smoke free by then.
Going it alone is certainly challenging - and it does feel like a very lonely place to be now that my support network has gone - but I'll keep going as best as I can!
Please feel free to share your experiences!!
Keep up the good work everyone!

I started Champix 2 weeks ago and stopped smoking yesterday, I have an appointment with the nurse this afternoon. My initial reading was 21, so I am hoping this has gone down today. I am ok at the moment but keep getting the odd thought of a cigarette but I think this is due to boredum rather than actually needing/wanting one. I will let you know how I get on. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteI'm on day 1 of Champix, and I found your blog inspiring, wish me luck :)
