Now, THIS is gross!
We went outside for a little "field training" today and it was 98 out there. My "
I gotta' quit smoking" patch began to fall off from the sweat. At first, no big deal. I'll get through the rest of the day just fine. Well, I started to get a little...........bitchy. This was the only logical solution. It worked and that's all I got to say about it!
Helen, 6:19 PM
LOL...24-hour stickiness, my ass. Those things fall off me all the time. Last I used the patch, I took to affixing it with duct tape. Worked, although people at the gym looked at me as if I was engaging in homeschooled DIY surgery or something.
Yep, duct tape works best, heck you can repair cars with it.
What ever works works right :)
Oh, patch memories. I did the patch, the gum, brand-switching. Eventually the only thing I could do was decide: either I'm smoking forever or I'm not smoking forever. And I quit.
It's the second hardest substance I've ever quit.
I was the last person that anyone thought would quit. Not because of the amount I smoked, but because I liked it and I have no will power.
I had never tried before. No patch. No gum. Just one day back in March (holy crap it's been 4 months!) I just stopped. Stopped buying them. If you don't have them, you won't smoke them. Weaning doesn't work, since you will always have a bad day.
Best of luck to you. Quitting is the best thing you'll ever do.
