I haven't quit yet but am on day 4 of Champix and expect to quit entirely soon. I didn't really see a place in the forum for intros of people who have not yet quit. Maybe I can't be here
Anyway, this is my second go at quitting smoking, and am hoping that with the drug, willpower, this forum, and my new exercise programme, I can beat the evil drug this time.
Thanks for all of you on here, I love the internet.

Thanks. I'm on day 6 of the Champix, and although I still have ages to go until my quit date, I am wondering if I should stop sooner. I have this weird trick in my brain, that tells me that I still 'get to' smoke for a week, so I should take advantage of it. I've cut down significantly with not too much problem.
The other side just tells me to get on with it already and give it up, as this in between place of smoking and not smoking is odd. Maybe I should give the Champix a few more days though?
Actually I had my last cigarette today at 1:00pm, and still feel fine now, think the champix is doing it's job well enough, so I have decided I will have no more and threw them all out. So today is day 1/2? Day 0? Anyways, no more cigs for me!
