In following the footsteps of devo and andra, I decided to post how my first two months have gone: the first three weeks were pretty much just as I expected. Irritable, lack of concentration, extreme cravings for sweets, fatigue, insomnia,tongue soreness, gums bleeding, among other things. I thought that that would be the extent of the "bad things". On the positive, my breathing improved, my sense of smell really improved, my tongue shed it's nicotine skin to a nice pink healthy tongue, my taste changed ( dr. Pepper isn't as good as I've always thought it was), my body, hair and clothes didn't stink anymore.
Then I hit a month, suddenly my breathing got worse again, fatigue is ever present gums still bled although not as often. Week seven, had nausea, fatigue, lack of appetite,wake to tar taste in my mouth, a sign that lungs are finally starting to clean.
Month two, have finally noticed that my breathing is slowly getting better, gums rarely bleed, sleeping like a baby, appetite much better.
I'm posting this for anyone who isn't having an uneventful journey in their quit to show you are not alone.
