Its been 5weeks and 2 days for me and cold turkey it was as after the doc telling me that I can't have patches or gum due too my medication,oh well I was ready in my own mind anyway and didn't have too buy smokes for the last month due to a wee stockpile and was booked into the dentist for a clean on my chosen "give up smoking" date...

Only once have I really wanted a smoke and that was day 3 and now I enjoy seeing the bank funds increasing and only stopping on the bike when I need gas or have arrived at my destination,things have worked out for the best
