Day 2 and holding strong

I think I'm a little better today. I'm going to hold off taking Chantix till afternoon to hopefully help with evening cravings.

Last night before bed was really weird. It's usually my "smoke and reflect on the day" time.

Stay Strong Gracie

Hi Gracie, Well done on your quit, the first few days are the hardest. :( Are you only taking 1 Chantix per day? :confused:

It was an escalating dose.

Days 1-3, I took one tab a day

Days 4-7, one tab twice a day

Day 8 on, 2 tabs once a day.

I had to read it a few times to understand it lol

Gracie surely that is .5mg? :confused:

I was on 1mg twice a day, but have cut down to 1mg once a day, and I take it in the morning :)

Maybe the Chantix doses are different from the Champix - but I thought they were the same ?
