I am quiting smoking - Any suggestions

I know - smoking is terrible for ones health. I have tried to quit before - thrown them out the window, nic gum, patches, but alas I go back to smoking. My intent is to be healthy. To sum it up, I am sick and tired of always being sick and tired. I know I can quit - I want to quit!! I have heard about a stop smoking shot or series of shots. Has anyone tried that, does it help. I think I can do it with help.

I've heard Welbutrin (shots) helps. I'm post op and still struggling a little bit.. I have 2 or 3 a day.. lol.

I quit 4 1/2 years ago after smoking for 17 years. I had tried the patch before and I smoked with it on. I smoked 3 packs a day, hard to imagine now..and I am sure anyone who knows me irl would be shocked now about that. I stopped cold turkey...decided that day was it. My husband bought me a couple bags of chocolate candy But after about 2 weeks I kept telling myself...ok why go backwards now, your doing good. Everytime I would have a craving, I would tell myself again, why go backwards, go foreward. I changed the way I thought of smoking...just like I have changed the way I think about food now that I have had WLS. IMO it is all a head game...and you can win this head game! Tracey

Barbie--There is some shot thing which is followed up with some other drugs. My brother had it a month ago and is still smoke free. Some good friends had it almost a year ago and they are both still smoke free. They were the worst butt fiends I have ever met--even smoked while eating dinners. Their quitting was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. I know the program is in both Naples and also at Gateway. If you want more info about it I can ask for the name of the program for you.

I was a 30 year smoker. I smoked a pack every 2 days and sometimes everyday 1 pack. My husband also smoked for over 38 years. It took us a couple of tries but we did it together. He used the patch for a month and a half, I tried the patch but the after taste in my mouth was horrible. I was eatting taffy,skittles, candy,candy,candy....Everyone at work knows not to give me cigs if i ask. I had 1 slip up. Badday at work went outside and smoked 3 hits and i said to myself yeck this taste is terrible. I havent touched them since. I smell cig smoke on other people and think i used to smell like that, smells nasty... We have been smoke free for 3 months and I have been able to stop the candy fixes. Good Luck......I also changed my habits around. Instad of a coffee and a butt I have a coffee and a half a bagel with scrambled eggs.The ride to work or home from work id smoke now i drink a water. Let everyone know so they will help you. I no longer huff and puff when i walk a short distance. I willnever touch a cig again.
