Awww, go ahead! I think we all should upload our own pictures. What's it gonna hurt?

I don't think I have any pictures of myself. I hate having my picture taken.

I know isn't that crazy? Years ago I had several people say I looked like her and then within the last month I had someone ask if anyone had ever told me I looked like her. I wish I could say Uma Thurman or Jennifer Anniston.

Barbara Mandrell is very pretty, don't worry about it.

Hi all.
Starting day 9 of my quit. The side effects of Chantix have basically subsided; I've slept thru the last two nights.
However, now that I'm not focusing on dealing with the negative effects of the drug - I've been left all alone to miss and mourn my little deadly friend. Oh well, I can be blue for a while,(better than hacking up half a lung, I suppose).
Reading all the posts here for the past couple of weeks has been so helpful. I didn't think I could do this quit alone - and I haven't.
Seriously... thanks to all of you.

Deanne, just keep an eye on the "blues"
Congratulations on staying quit!

For some reason I always pictured you as small boned, petite and somewhat fragile. Why, I have no idea. I am glad you look like her. She has been favorite of mine for a long time. She plays in some Lifetime movies, which by the way are not a fav of mine, but sometimes I watch just cuz she is in it.

Well, I am only 5'1". I don't really do the whole TV thing, but a lot of people seem to like her on ER.

When I was young I was told I looked like Patty Duke (when she was young).
41 days behind me, my whole life ahead of me! Have a great day, quitters!

Another name I haven't heard in a long time!!!

So, we could all go rob a bank, and since we're of that age, we probably won't get caught, and if we do, we can say , "the Chantix made me do it" with all of the press lately, we could probably get off on temporary insanity! JK, don't anyone go gettin' any big ideas!!!

Good Morning Day 3!
Chantix reminds me of being on birth control pills, for some reason. My Chantix is in a little box, with inside markings "day 1, day 2, day 3 ect..." with little punch-out pills behind tiny plastic bubbles.
Oh yeah, the package is hard to open. It's a slide out get-up and I'd like to burn it almost every time I can't open it.::wink::
Good Morning everybody. Here's to a smoke free day!::holds up her little glass of prune juice to toast becuase the Chantix is like a cork in her system::

You are TOO funny!!! Pfizer really makes us work for those pills in that stupid box. What's up with that?

Congratualtions on Day 3 and keep up the great work!!

Welcome Shar! You can quit, and you have lots of people ready to help you along the way.
My poor husband is a Topix widower. I am on here wayyyy too much. LOL

Wow Deb, that is some impressive list. However did you find the time to collect and compile it? I would guess that maybe a few of those may be true, but I hardly think ALL of them could be. Do you think it is possible for more than one person in Knoxville, TN and Franklin, TN could be on Chantix and on here?

Including myself, I personally know of at least 10 other folks in Knoxville who are either on chantix or have weaned off. Actually, I am a weaner and doing great so far.

Miss Molly, I MISSED YOUR ANNIVERSARY YESTERDAY....I FEEL AWEFUL!!!! 7 MONTHS IS amazing!!!! I think we should keep your party going for at least a week!!!! Where do you want to go to dinner? How about a big trip somewhere special? I hope you know if I could I would, because you are sooooo special girlfriend...Keep up the amazing work, and I hope your hands are still O.K.....actually that would be your present, to permanently fix your hands so they would be pain free forever! Or I know a guest appearance on our favorite T.V. show....House!^5

Isn't it funny. I have turned picture avoidance in to an art form!

See, now that's funny because I figured since I'm from NY, y'all pictured NOT Kim Cattrall from "Sex & the City" but more like Joan Cusack from "Working Girl". BTW, I don't tawk like that eitha.'Xept when I get pissed awff.
