Sorry for the delay in responding
It's actually not getting any easier, but that's not as bad as it sounds. The only real problem I had was when I had a wicked ice cream craving, and I ended up giving in to it. (as a point of note, I'm suspecting now that I may have Candida, which would explain that more than anything.)
As for the nicotine cravings, I've not really had any bad ones. It's been remarkably easy this time around. I keep forgetting to put my patch on and have started carrying them with me because I've had to turn around on my way to work 3 times to go get it!
I haven't noticed any weight gain, but there hasn't been any loss either. However, that may again be Candida, if in fact I have that.
So, it's been pretty easy from the get-go for me, and just keeps being easy! I'm going to be using the last level of patch starting on Sunday, but I am prepare to go back up a level if I need it. I'll let you know how that works out.
I do miss smoking sometimes. I really enjoy it and wish I could be a smoker, but it's just not worth the health risks.
Hope this helps you GWilson. Good luck, and remember that you have all the support in the world, right here!
(A friend of mine used another web site as well, called quitnet.com. Lots of good advice and techniques there as well.)
