I love th ideas and support. I never smoked with kids in the car so I have volunteered to run carpool for 7 boys this week. I am headed to the store for supplies since I actually flushed the last of the pack I had. I am going to do this! BTW' date=' what is the co2 test?[/quote']

I got a vapor cigarette with 0mg nicotine to fight the driving habit and after I eat habit. I got watermelon flavor. I love it!!

I am so new to this non smoking thing (9 hours:) ). What is the difference between a regular ecig and a vapor with no nicotine? I can order online but I'm wondering if some of the non nicotine varieties are available in stores. I live in a pretty small town but I think we have a few gas stations that carry ecigs!

I quit several years ago..cold turkey. My husband used chantix and it worked for him. Keep with it! My mother in law still smokes. Had I known I stunk so bad I woukd of never started. I can bareky stand it now and I feel so much better. If getting the sleeve is worth it...stopping smoking is definitely worth it!

Nicotine is also a factor in healing prooerly. No nicotine you would probably have to order online. I use Good Vapes in Dallas. They are awesome and very reasonable.

I would try a few cheapos until you find a brand you like. Some require a heavy draw & some are just plain heavy to hold.

My husband is so supportive that he is going to take me around town to find some what we have here. Otherwise, I am ordering online tomorrow!

Thanks to all of the suggestions, I am now officially smoke free for 48 hours! It doesn't sound like a lot, but I haven't had any major problems. I think conquering the driving is a HUGE deal. I can stay busy the rest of the time:)

That is huge. I forgot to mention that before i quit altogether I quit smoking in my smoking zones 1 by 1. I banned it from my car first, then each of my other spots. Smoking in the car and after meals were the 2 biggies to kick for me.

Thanks you guys. I am trying to Celebrate every little bit right now. I love th idea of zones. There are some places I'm just not ready to to (a bar, a casino) because the smoking temptation is so strong! I know it will get better, but right now...it's a lil rough. I just keep saying I want to be healthy and I want my surgery more than I want the cigarette. Deep breath:)

48 hours is great! I bugged my fiancé for the first 12 hours, about every 30 minutes..."how long's it been now?"

      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! 😞
