Title: Yet another new guy
Post by: KTM Rider on December 23, 2007, 06:53:00 AM
Well, here is my story in a nutshell. dippes since I was 14. I am 37 now.
I have been wanting to quit for a while now.
My wife made me a deal that if i quit i can buy a new race bike ( I race GNCC's) I went to my doctor and got a prescription for Chantix. I am ready to quit. I have 2 small children and to be honest, I have just had my fill of it..

Now before you guys rip me for not signing the "Roll Call" I think I should tell you that I took my first Chantix pill tonight and It has a single pill to take daily for the first week. during this time they recommend that you keep smoking ( or dipping in my case ) Then on the 8th. day the pills increase to two a day and this 8th. day is your quit day.
I am going to follow their directions to the tee and that would mean that I will be singing the roll call on the 30th. I know you guys are going to say "AHh just throw it away right now" Well, I have tried that many times and I know that won't work for me. I want to stick to this plan.

BTW, I already looked for my quit group which should be march 2008. I can't seem to find it.
