I'm a newbie of 2 hours! I'm 48 and started smoking at 11, so wish me ur best w/ this. Would love any suggestions to help me out! I do have couple questions, Chantis (sp?) does it really help and what are the side effects? Is it replacing one monkey for another? Also I read thers a nicotine gum starter kit for free but cant find anywhere to get it..??? Well here I am, hope to hear from u
