Hi Umagooma: Congratulations on your decision to become a quitter! You and I are at about the same place....my last cigarette was February 13th. You asked about dizziness. I had some at the very beginning, along with feeling disoriented. It didn't last long -- several days. I was extremely tired for 11 days, but once it passed I've been raring to go. No nausea at all -- but I've always taken the rx on a full stomach w/ 16 oz. of water.
I've gained no weight...in fact, I've lost about 5 lbs. I had zero appetite in the beginning and don't have much of a one even now. I'm eating as healthy as possible and only occasionally indulge in junk food (my weakness). I'm also exercising regularly -- even more regularly than before I stopped smoking. I go to the gym 5-6 days a week....Body Pump and Body Step classes. My endurance is markedly improved.
I feel wonderful -- there's no other way to put it.
Do you ever think about smoking? I hardly ever do and, if I do, it's no more than a fleeting thought. Have you given consideration to how you're gonna come off Chantix -- just stop or wean off? I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go the weaning route.
Do keep us posted on your progress.
