damm grl i know what u are going thru i quit on the first i am having surgery june 1st and everyday i want to smoke i think imma end up divorced b4 skinny cause i am a bear...lol..just do what u can and please update on how its going
smoking is the HARDEST thing to quit...OMG...I have been having such a bad time with it :{ I quit and start up again....grrrrr. YOU QUIT, don't start again hunny...it's so icky! Congrats on the wl so far, you are doing amazing!!!! Take care, Caprice
honey i had the same sugery and the doctors here say that smoking will put a hole in the pouch... and that smoking was deadly for me now...i quit the day before surgery and i crave one all the time but i fight it....i wish you the best of luck
I had a rny 3 weeks ago. I tried to quit smoking many times prior to the surgery, but in the end I quit the day prior to my surgery.I would love to smoke, BUT there are too many reasons not to: most importantly because I did this for my health- although I currently have no issues, I wanted to stop them before they started. Also, smoking signifigantly increases your risk for developing gastric ulcers, even without smoking they are are a huge concern, and ulcers mean bleeding internally.not good.
I quit smoking about a year and a half ago, it was easy that time, because I was not able to breathe anymore. It is such a hard addiction. You look great by the way! :)
I smoked for 13 years, and they told me to had to be smoke free for 3 months BEFORE gastric bypass surgery. I'm 3 weeks out (almost 4) and I've been craving cigarettes again. But the ONLY 2 things that are keeping me from smoking are... The fact that the price went WAY up and I've saved SOOO much money since I quit... and #2, I know when I start excersizing hardcore, I'm gonna wanna be smokefree to be able to breathe better!! So, it's just exactly HOW BAD do you want to actually be HEALTHY??
NO!!! Don't do it girl. I have been trying to quit for so long. I have quit several times and I keep starting back up. So far it's been 2 days for me with NO CIGARETTES. I smoked menthol lights and I'm telling you it seems harder to quit menthol because not only do I missing the smoking but I miss the menthol. We have to quit. For me because I want the surgery (I'm pre-op) and I sure has hell not going to start back up afterwords. GET AND STAY HEALTHY!! So I know what your going through :-)
Glad things are going well ! Dont try to hard take things one thing at a time you will succeed
