Keep Trying

“My name is Nicole. I have been a non-smoker for just over two months now. The things that helped me the most are my two boys and my arts and crafts. I have tried pretty much everything that helps people to quit from cold turkey to the patch to chantex and the one that made it successful is the chantex. My advice for those of you who are just starting the long road or even been on the road for awhile but can’t see the end is to just keep trying.

Everyone has their setbacks but don’t get discouraged just try again the next day or even better the same day if you can. The benefits that I have seen so far is that I can be more active with my kids and not run out of breath. I have also been able to hold a note, as in a musical note, for a longer period of time because my lung capacity has increased.”

 

“Mi nombre es Nicole. Llevo un poco mas de dos meses desde que deje de fumar. Las cosas que me ayudaron fueron mis dos hijos y artes y manualidades. Intente casi todo que ayuda a otras personas para dejar de fumar desde dejando de un solo golpe a usar el parche a chantex y lo única que fue exitoso era chantex. Mi sugerencia para los que están comenzando el camino largo o los que han estado intentando, pero no pueden encontrar el fin del camino es que siguen intentando.

Todos tienen sus retrasos, pero no se des animan y que intentan de nuevo el siguiente dia o mejor el mismo dia. Los beneficios que yo he visto hasta el momento son que soy mas activa con mis hijos y no se me va el aire. También puedo cantar por mas tiempo porque la capacidad de mis pulmones ha aumentado.”
