Greatest.Picture.Ever.

That's awesome, H! Good luck! I know that when my mom was quitting smoking, the gum really helped her, too, so if you have the oral fixation, just something to consider. :)

You can do it.

oral fixation..hmmmm.....Nah.....ain't going there

Good luck hammer.I've tried to quit several times without success.Thye say it's one of the hardest things to do.

Just get pregnant.
I found out I was pregnant with my son, stopped smoking immediately and haven't picked it up since:)

/\ Worked with my sister.

Good luck with it.

Studies have shown that using NRT (eg patches/gum/etc) gives you a better chance of quitting than going cold turkey.

They worked for me.

If you were a reasonably heavy smoker and don't have any significant cardiac problems, you can use gum as well if you need a bit "extra" to get you through particularly bad cravings. Might be worth considering if you find it hard going with the patches.

I tried once. Though it was only for a month...but I realized I can do it anytime, so I started again.:D

Anyways, best of luck to you & your family members.

I was told that lolly pops are meant to help as well. Dunno if it's true though.
