Quitting is easier than people think, I was a 58 year smoker.And now smoke free, I had no withdraw systoms, no hunger pangs and now I love who I am a non smoker. It feels wonderful. I truly believe all the the things you hear about withdraw and hunger pangs are thinks people tell you to try and keep you from quitting. After 3 days all Nicotine is out of your body, you are now in control. I was 14 years old when I started to smoke I will be 72 years old in March and believe me when I tell you quitting is easy, trust me it is. the best way is the way I did it COLD TURKEY Forget the patches, the gum and all the other stuff on the market, it only prolongs the agony. God Bless You All and Good Luck In Quitting.
