I am also champix free! TO be honest, I stop taking the Champix on day 17 and haven't had one since? They helped tremedously while thinking about it (from day 1-14), and for a fewe days after but since day 17, no pangs, no champix, no fags.
So weird.
Although, one thing I would say it that I am now 12lbs heavier than I was 5 weeks ago but this I can deal with.
I have got my gym membership and my fat busters book. SHame there isn't a little pill to cure this side of things!
Still, I may be fat, but I'm fag free. And, long may it last.

hi Little Bob
sorry i can tcomment on the Champix, but a superb well done on 5 weeks great effort and i am sure once you have you have cracked this smoking malarky you will be just as good at at kicking the 12 into touch as well
Hi Little Bob and well done!! I quit the day after you using Champix and stopped taking them 28 days into my quit - and have been fine. I think it's a wonder drug because it worked so well in the first couple of weeks, just amazing.
Oddly enough, I have also put on 12lbs (aaarrrgghhh I just KNEW this would happen)......so I've joined weightwatchers. I hope WW works as well as Champix did.
Well done!!! I think maybe the 12lbs is just a girl thing then. I only noticed when my trousers were cutting off the blood flow to my legs!!!
The fat can be attacked far easier than the fags, so it should be childs play. I'm also joining fat club, there's loads in the city I can nip to (under the cover of night, without anyone see my fat rolls wobble).
Keep in touch and we can do our own little private weigh in! Even a few pounds, just so I can sit down without going red would be nice!!
Anyway, good luck and don't worry about it. Better to catch it now before the point of no return!
I'm a big believer in one thing at a time, and have conciously tried to stop eating cake/choc etc... Xmas will be interesting with all of the yummy treats that my new taste buds will refind.... *cringe*
Be strong.... it may be a rumour but apparently with a little exercise effort the metabolism equalises back again.....
I'm keeping my fingers and chubby little toes crossed....

The wieght will come off once your body and metabolism stabilize themselves from the abuse you gave them while smoking OK
