Cigarettes and WLS don't mix

I just want to offer this bit of advice. I had WLS 18 months ago, I've lost 126lbs. I quit smoking more than 7 yrs ago. The last few months I've been dealing with a lot of stress. Moving, ilnesses, a bunch of stuff, and I gave into my craving to have a cigarette. Well, let me tell you, what a horrible experience that was, and I thank GOD. LOL. I had gotten to where I was smoking a few a day, heading back up to a full pack a day. The other day I had about 3 cigs on my way to work. By the time I got to work, I was sick as a dog. I actually had dumping symptoms, chills, light headed, tummy ache, and I actually threw up. My stomach felt like it was in a spasm. That was the last smoke I had, or will ever have again. Didn't realize you can dump on cigs, if that's what it was. But, in any event, I will never have another cigarette again. Please Dont' Smoke, who knows what kind of damage I could have done. Thanks for listening. :-)
