Tobacco Use

 

One participant informed me this week that she was officially 5 days smoke-free! She actually quit before her quit date of August 8th. She started taking Chantix in addition to creating a plan for barriers that prevented her from previously quitting. We will follow up next week talk about her plan for staying quit.
