b2008 & Wiley

Well here I go again -- I took Wiley's suggestion and cut the Nicoderm patches into 4 and will see how that will work--Also today I am going to start going back to the gym!!

I have to face the ex-wife in 3 weeks so I want to lose some of the weight I gained over the holidays.

I went cold tukey 4 yrs ago but started back.  I quit last year for 3 months and started back, I was down to 1 a day and now I am up to 5 or 6 a day. I do love Sparky but i think that subconciously I feel that maybe he is trying to change me or that I will get FAT

I went cold turkey when I quit...
...and then I started getting as big as a turkey and had to quit eating, too:). Maybe your love for Sparkey will encourage you to quit. Good luck!

Re: Wiley
I was using the Nicoderm Patches the 21mg but they are so expensive though they did help, I was down to 1 1/2 cigarettes a day.  I never thought about cutting them to make them go further thanks for the tip!!

Well darling look what I have done for love and I am truly a senior citizen
True love hits where and when it does and age has nothing to do with it. Enjoy your boyfriend and have fun. Luv y'

Good for you grammy, and you can quit smoking when you want to. I did it for 11 years then started again when my wife died and now quit just before Kabu came here to live.

I got the Nicoderm patch but the middle one, cut one patch up into 4 days, and after about 14 days I was done and I feel fine again.

So, go for it, give yourself the gift of breath luv.

Hiya:) go back to your last post and remind yourself of your one
not-resolution: to live each day as if it meant something.  Grannie at 40?  Lucky girl! I don't know how you have time to blog with all you've got going on. Happy New Year!!! :)
