Im only 5 days post op and not losing much im a smoker but haven't smoked since July 18 and im really craving one does anyone else smoke with the sleeve

Now is a great time to quit! My husband recently quit using the patch and toothpicks for the oral fixation. You can do this! Get healthy all around!

I also urge you to quit, you have the physical withdrawal beat. Now its the mental part you have to deal with.

I was a 2 pack a day smoker for 30 years, I know how very hard it is to stop, it took having a heart attack at age 46 to wake me up.

Your healing will also go alot faster if you refrain, Good luck, and enjoy the start of your new life.
