Good Morning all! I can't believe nobody has done roll call. I figured I would have to be up by about 2:00AM in order to do this. I'm on day 12. I feel really good. I stopped taking chantix this week and I haven't noticed any major changes. I posted a question in the advice area if anybody has any input on that I would appreciate it. Have a wonderful smoke-free day!!!
