Getting Nicotine Out Of Your System

[JennJacoby 2]

I'm having trouble quitting... The niacin really helps? I was using the nicorette lozenges

I also used the e cigarette. It helped a lot. Don't buy refills at first - I never made it through the first set that came with it.

Got aggravated and ill and went to store for a pack of cigs. I am hopeless. Why can't I fight this? I have endoscopsy on the 12th. I'm afraid my surgeon will be able to tell I have been smoking. I have to be strong and kick this. Help!

It is very hard but you can do this!! I smoked for 26 years and did I want to? No!! I did it because of this surgery. Because I want this so bad!! But this e cigs works. If I were you get the blu. It's expensive 80 bucks. Do the nicotine cartridges at first to help. Then after a couple weeks or so buy some non nicotine ones and start alternating cartridges like when the nicotine one runs out use non nicotinei and so forth

Then after a couple weeks switch completely to non nicotine. Blu has a few flavors I personally use the Java flavored ones and because it is non nicotine I can use it even after surgery if I wanted and don't have to worry about putting any weight on from quitting smoking

My surgeon wanted me to quit minimum 2 wks before surgery, I knew there was no way I could quit BEFORE surgery, I needed to smoke to keep myself sane. I continued to smoke like crazy before surgery. The night before I had enough ciggs to last me until 9pm, I had my last smoke around 9pm and that was it. When I woke in the a.m. to get ready for surgery I wanted on but did not feel like spending $9.00 of a pack that I was only going to smoke a few ciggs. out of. Plus I did not want to walk into surgery smelling like smoke either. After surgery I did not have any desire to smoke what so ever !!! I do miss it ever now and then but I have been smoke free for 6 months

I have had the hardest time as well and my surgery is Monday. I have a e cig and it's reduced me to 2 cigarettes a day. My nerves are all over the place. I hope after surgery I no longer have the urge for them.
