I just recently accepted a postion that would require me to not smoke for pretty much my whole 12hour shift. I thought it would help me to quit, and since I am on Atkins and losing already, what better time? Hmmm. reading this thread has me shuddering. Last year I gained 20 lbs. I have lost those 20 lbs and now have only lost 1 pound in three weeks, even going to the gym. Feel like a gross pig. I am right now laming it on TOM. We'll see. I feel for all you quitters. i quit on Zyban and want to kick my own a!! for starting again. Went almost 5 months. Oh, well, I dont think I would have made it through my sisters death last year without ciggies. Would have started chewing my toenails on top of my figernails.

Good luck, I will be back here when its my time to quit.
