Hi I quit smoking 3 weeks ago and I slipped up in an emotional moment. I have since smoke a 6 cigarette s in a week. I have the pre surgery testing Oct 2 and my surgery is Oct 20. Anyone know how I can get rid of the nicotine in my system in 3 weeks time? I'm so upset at myself [emoji20] I had my last cigarette yesterday today no urges or cravings it was just a rough week when I slipped. I was never a heavy smoker maybe a 1/ 2 pack a day before I stopped. Anyone with any advise to help me rid my body of nicotine in time for my testing?

How do you know if they are testing for nicotine? Sent from my LG-M210 using BariatricPal mobile app

Well I caved again and over the weekend had 2 cigs. I'm doomed. My pre operative testing is Oct 6. My surgeon never said anything about smoking I did fill out the form that I was a casual smoker. But from reading everything online its better to quit before and I want to be in good shape for the surgery. Who is the one that makes the decisions about the patient being nicotine free? Today I will keep drinking my water and see if I can get a gallon down maybe flush it all out by Oct 6? Sent from my LG-M210 using BariatricPal mobile app

Wish I did my sister isn't talking to me lately oh well. I told my boss this morning but not the rest of the office one co-worker thinks I'm having hernia surgery Sent from my LG-M210 using BariatricPal mobile app

So I had to see my surgeon a second time yesterday no one really knew why I was there. He said maybe your insurance requires it. He never told me about a 2 week before surgery diet nor anything about shrinking my liver before surgery. Would that come from my PCP when I have to get the clearance for surgery? Or are surgeons have different policies? Feeling a bit uneasy Sent from my LG-M210 using BariatricPal mobile app
