Default Nicotine Free But Need CarbPatch

Hi. I quit Dec. 2006. I used the patch and it really helped me a lot. Everytime I tried to use Step 2 I would relapse or have really intense cravings. I found out from reading on QuitNet that some people stay on the vairous steps of the patch for as long as it takes. One woman said she was on them all total for 200 days!!! I was thinking that she had an expensive habit, but hey anything is better than lighting up...except eating carbs.
I neeeeeeeeEEEeeeed the carbpatch.

Oh I was just making that up. Sorry if my humor confused you. I had just started induction when I posted that and though I was slowly losing my mind with the sugar cravings.
If someone knows of a carb patch please let me know ASAP. I have seen the hoodia patch and a couple of other ones, but they don't address the sugar addiction problem that I'm still fighting. I just got off of sugarfree jello and am having enormous cravings again. I'm just too close to my sugar addiction still to add the sf stuff. Even nuts set off the cravings. A patch would make it easier, but guess we're gonna havta Just Do It.

Wow! I'm usually not that 'dense', and I'm usually quick with the humor...that one went right over my head! I apparently still have "brain fog" from this sugar withdraw...
