    I am having such a hard time quitting smoking!! Does anyone know how long it takes for nicotine to leave your system? I have bought an e cig, tried and failed! Does Chantix have nicotine if I get a Dr appointment and start taking that? I'm just so discouraged and my last dietitian appointment is in November, so I really have to quit ASAP! Of course once I start smoking, I hear that you eat constantly! Ugh..... Any suggestions, please help! Thanks!

    Hey All - My insurance requires I have 3 months of weight management with a dietitian. Today was my 2nd visit and she asked me to start tracking all of the food I eat. My problem is, I downloaded My Fitness pal, but I just cannot understand that site and to get full access, they want me to pay $. Does anyone else have any recommendations for tracking food on a daily basis? Thanks!!!

    I'm right along with you. I am trying to quit and cut back a lot. I don't have a surgery date as of yet because I'm still in the process, but my Dr will give me a nicotine test and If I test positive, the surgery will be cancelled. I have no choice but to quit. I'm trying my hardest, I know I've heard a lot of different stories and it's harder to heal if you smoke and you may get blood clots. Hope this helps! Also, I purchased a e cig and that had been helping me a lot! Good luck!

    Hey all - I have Cigna open access and my last appointment with the dietitian is November 4th. Just curious to know how long it usually takes for most insurance companies to approve and once they approve, how long will it be until I have my surgery? I'm wanting to relocate to another city and I was just curious. Thanks to all!

    I'm going through the same thing! My surgery may not be until December/January but I am going to invest in the E cigarette (no nicotine) to see how well I do with that. All of my co workers smoke so I'm definitely going to try my hardest to stay away from the outside until I get the E cigarette. It's a very hard thing to do and I wish you the best of luck!!!
