Lum, the book didn't help me at the time either but the knowledge I gained helped me tremendously during my quit now. Thats why I think its a good companion to Chantix MAJOR FREAKIN RANT AHEAD!! my friend went to her doc and the doc wont give her chantix cuz of the suicide studies/....I say Tabacco companies are behind those studies!!!! it freaking pisses me off that the doc wont give her the r/x....she has Kaiser, which is unfortunate cuz its not like she can go to another doc. I was soooo pissed when I heard that!!! I told her I would go tell my doc I started again and get a new chan r/x and give it to her!

Suicide studies? Based upon my own experiences with the drug, I told my mom I wouldn't take the drug if I had depression issues. Never heard of any suicide studies, though. Her doctor might be righteously cautious if she has already known depression issues herself or in the family.

Hmm, my Kaiser doctor wouldn't give it to me because she said they want you to go to support groups as you will be more successfull. I told her that would only work for me if they were within a block of my home, LOL. I am back and have 11 days smoke free.

Suicide Warning for Antismoking Drug ETA I'm not advocating NOT Chantix. Seems to have done WONDERS for alot in here. Wish my mom had had it, maybe she'd be alive now. Wish my brother had been able to use it, maybe he'd have more than 20% of his heart alive now.

Sing it, Pamy. It certainly saved my vacation because otherwise I'd have holed up in our hotel rooms.

Pamy, I'm all about helping out a friend, but think carefully about giving someone else a prescription that was given to you. Should, God forbid, anything happen to that friend, you would be held liable. What if she turned out to be one of those patients whose system can't handle that drug? Think about it...you are stepping on a landmind if you do this (but bless your heart for your willingness to support that friend!).

I DID wear something like this into a nite club many times ...... Oh, bring back the late 80s early 90s. I knew I was hot & by gosh - if you've got it, show it! Now..@ 50 & not so hot anymore, it's good to be reminded.

I want to thank all of you who responded to my question about menthol cigs. Just my luck, many years ago, to pick menthol. So, I know this is going to be harder than I first thought. Oh well, such is life. I'll just have to begin working harder. Eeeeeeh gads! Swimsuits? Those do look cute, but would mean that I would have to shave my legs! LOL

I love the swim dresses. I have one out in my gym bag in the car, I'm too lazy to go get it and take a pic ! Pamy, I like yours better because it looks more supportive up top. I need a new one ! Got the book and have started to read, also got the new Stephen King ( again ! with the Stephen King,lol ) book from the library and am reading both tonight because it's a dark and stormy night and I'm fudging.

LOL I kid ya not, you could see the color of the girls underwear even when they weren't on the stairs!!! Boy, that takes me back! Oldtex, looks like peppermints and cough drops for us.
