I have weaned about 2000+ people in the past 4-5 years.

Using Patch and gum. It works.

Correctly size the first patch and use gum for breakthrough cravings.

Diminish the patch size and continue to use gum for breakthough

Remember that you just chew the gum enough to get it soft and then park it between gum and cheek. Chew occasionally to get more nicotine.

Drink lots of water.

Keep busy away from food.

Exercise.

Do deep breathing exercises every hour.

Have your thyroid checked regularly after quitting to make sure it is working properly.

I will follow your instructions but most likely won’t need the patch after 10 days.

My problem comes when I can taste and smell food.

Suddenly food tastes and smells sooo good and I don’t even think about smoking anymore, all I think about is eating!

I will pay more attention to the eating urge this time.
