I wish i could help more in that department but i have never been a smoker. Have you tried the Patches, there is also a pill (not sure of the name) that helps ween you off. Try this: throw out whatever packs you have and dont buy anymore. I would hate for you to have complications with surgery because of your habit. You have a decision to make, whats more important: the length of your life or a cigarette. If you can answer that question then you can quit smoking. Tap into that will power that you have and fight for your health. Its not going to be easy but anything truly worth fighting for never is. I hope things work out for you.

Yes, I really wait the surgery . It hard to stop smoking after 34 years. I don't understand it seems that if some people have a hard time with things it always comes down to do you really want to have weight loss surgery. Everyone in life has different things to deaL with. We need to support others no matter their faults or issues.

I never implied that and what i originally said i deleted because i wasn't trying to judge you. All im saying is sometimes people arent ready that is all. I dont see how you read my post and thought i wasnt trying to support and uplift you. From what i say i was trying to offer you advice on quitting even though i have never been a smoker.

I'm sorry I took it the wrong way. Everything else is going good. I lost the weight I needed to, got all my meds in chewable. All my papers for work and ins are done. It's just this darn smoking I can't seem to kick. I'm going to try on my weekend really hard . I wrote a list of this I need to get done . Again I apologize for the misunderstanding.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
