This is my 4-5th attempt at quitting but feeling very chuffed as I have never managed beyond 4 days before and I am now at day 8. Using the patches this time and find they make a huge difference. Cold turkey is just not for me. My boyfriend refers to the last time I went cold turkey as black sunday. I am glad to say that this time I have not threatened to kill anyone :).

The only downside is I am eating like a pig. Any advice on weight gain??

Hi ya Joanne welcome :)

Good luck with the quit.

As for the weight gain it is natural only advice i can really give is if your eating more as most of us do try getting a bit more exercise if possible even if its only half an hours walk a day.
