          Oney, I have NOT had one craving since Sat..... I repeat NOT ONE CRAVING!!!

          What is interesting is that the book recommends many of the same supps as RJ. The L-Glut, 5-HTP, and GABA... so I have started taking them and seriously can't believe how easy it feels now.

            Thanks Vladster, I just can't believe I have gone nearly 4 days without a smoke now.

              Thanks Deebers, I am struggling a bit but not half as much as I thought I would, but I am taking the supps too. I am going to have a look at that. Patrick Holford is a bit of a star in my book.

                Crap, sorry to hear that Oney. I am pleased you aren't using the patches as I've heard that it kinda defeats the object.
                I felt rotten yesterday (day 3) but it was the detoxing that threw me -- I had a head ache from hell, my body ached all over and of course I just could not sleep. Today seems to be much better.

                Oh and eat lots of nuts and seeds.

                  When did you quit Starts? I personally think the supps have played a huge role for me -- oh and I am also taking the Zyban.

                    How to quit without feeling s**t

                    Today is day 3 of an 18 year nicotine gum habit. Sometimes up to 30 pieces a day....I am wearing a patch but I know I will be able to reduce those as soon as I get used to not reaching for a piece of gum like a cig. And the patches dont give me a buzz like the gum did if I had enough of it.
                    How long you been taking the zyban?

                      How to quit without feeling s**t

                      I started the Zyban on the 13th Jan. After a week you up the dosage and then the second week you commit to your quit date. I have heard such great things about it but only from females -- quite a few guys including my hubby said that they had anxiety attacks when on it.
                      I am supposed to take it for 3 months but I'll start to wean myself off after a month and see how it goes.

                      Crumbs Starts, 30 pieces of gum a day -- I'd rather just smoke:-)

                        How to quit without feeling s**t

                        One day a man saw an old lady, stranded on the side of the road, but
                        even in the dim light of day, he could see she needed help. So he
                        pulled up in front of her Mercedes and got out. His Pontiac was still
                        sputtering when he approached her. Even with the smile on his face, she
                        was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he
                        going to hurt her? He didn't look safe; he looked poor and hungry.

                        He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He
                        knew how she felt. It was that chill which only fear can put in you.

                        He said, 'I'm here to help you, ma'am. Why don't you wait in the car
                        where it's warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.'

                        Well, all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad
                        enough. Bryan crawled under the car looking for a place to put the jack,
                        skinning his knuckles a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire.
                        But he had to get dirty and his hands hurt...

                        As he was tightening up the lug nuts, she rolled down the window and began
                        to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just
                        passing through. She couldn't thank him enough for coming to her aid.

                        Bryan just smiled as he closed her trunk. The lady asked how much she
                        owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She already
                        imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not
                        stopped. Bryan never thought twice about being paid. This was not a job
                        to him. This was helping someone in need, and God knows there were
                        plenty, who had given him a hand in the past. He had lived his whole life
                        that way, and it never occurred to him to act any other way.

                        He told her that if she really wanted to pay him back, the next time she
                        saw someone who needed help, she could give that person the assistance
                        they needed, and Bryan added, 'And think of me.'

                        He waited until she started her car and drove off. It had been a cold and
                        depressing day, but he felt good as he headed for home, disappearing into
                        the twilight.

                        A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe. She went in to grab
                        a bite to eat, and take the chill off before she made the last leg of her
                        trip home. It was a dingy looking restaurant. Outside were two old gas
                        pumps. The whole scene was unfamiliar to her. The waitress came over and
                        brought a clean towel to wipe her wet hair. She had a sweet smile, one that
                        even being on her feet for the whole day couldn't erase. The lady noticed
                        the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let the
                        strain and aches change her attitude.
                        The old lady wondered how someone who had so little could be so giving to a
                        stranger. Then she remembered Bryan

                        After the lady finished her meal, she paid with a hundred dollar bill. The
                        waitress quickly went to get change for her hundred dollar bill, but the
                        old lady had slipped right out the door. She was gone by the time the
                        waitress came back. The waitress wondered where the lady could be.
                        Then she noticed something written on the napkin.

                        There were tears in her eyes when she read what the lady wrote: 'You don't
                        owe me anything. I have been there too. Somebody once helped me out, the
                        way I'm helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you
                        do: Do not let this chain of love end with you.'

                        Under the napkin were four more $100 bills.

                        Well, there were tables to clear, sugar bowls to fill, and people to
                        serve, but the waitress made it through another day. That night when
                        she got home from work and climbed into bed, she was thinking about the
                        money and what the lady had written. How could the lady have known how
                        much she and her husband needed it? With the baby due next month, it was
                        going to be hard....

                        She knew how worried her husband was, and as he lay sleeping next to her,
                        she gave him a soft kiss and whispered soft and low, 'Everything's
                        going to be all right. I love you, Bryan Anderson.'

                        There is an old saying 'What goes around comes around.' Today I sent
                        you this story, and I'm asking you to pass it on. Let this light shine. God
                        works in mysterious ways and sometimes puts people in our lives
                        for a reason.
