I probably shouldn't have mentioned I was a smoker to my surgeon, but I did because I feel I'm being held accountable now! Lol! Good luck to you. You can do this! Take it one day at a time. It gets better after 3 days? I'm finding day 3 to be a little tricky keeping the cravings at bay, but it's managable. Do you havd any Chantix side effects?

I'm betting tomorrow will be better for you!

I really can't think of any side effects that Chantix has given me. I hear a lot of people have really vivid dreams but I can't remember one dream i've had in 16 days! I constantly had cough drops in my mouth and someone here recommended a peppermint stick which helped too to keep in my hand and mouth, but I also found a pen was helpful in my hand when driving, etc.

But I did get the Nicotine Free 0% e-cigarette filter to use bc I really wanted a cigarette and didn't want the nicotine or any other chemicals to set me back to fail! And it did help my craving..just havaing something to puff on ya know!

Good luck & if you have any questions, just ask!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
