Hi everyone, got a question for all those who smoked [emoji377]. How long does it take for nicotine and cotinine to get out of your body? I stopped 25 days ago and i don't want to get bloodwork done to soon. If anyone knows it will be so helpful!

For me, a former heavy user of nicotine products- it took about 8 or 9 days to test negative on a urine test. Most likely they will test your urine- as cotinine is detectable in your urine for longer than nicotine is detectable in your blood.

You should be fine on either test, especially after 25 days. Just be sure not to hang too closely to smokers or get too much second hand exposure. :)

      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! 😞
