I use nicotine pouches on and off throughout a cut to help with the apetite suppression. Once the addiction gets too strong and im doing 10+ pouches a day, I go cold turkey and that normally times well with the end of my fat loss phase.

However this cut on Reta, I stopped them yesterday. Its quite a surreal feeling this morning to have the nicotine withdrawal fidgets, that dont lead in me raiding all the cupboards.
 
That's great. Never used nicotine myself but Reta helps me not drink. But be careful reta is a gateway peptide, next thing you know, there will be 30 kits in your freezer.

hahah yes I can see that. I do plan on adding GHK very soon, but unsure whether to stick to GHK or try KLOW

I went with individual kits of kpv, tb500, bpc157 and ghkcu. I was thinking if I had a bad response, I would know whitch one it was from. I get painful itchy welts from ghkcu. So, I suck it up, use all 4 and mix my own klow since I have the kits. Then there gone, I will buy it premixed. I'm glad I went the way I did, but going strait for klow would have been cheaper/ faster/ easier.

Seems logical and a good way to start. I am guessing you have had good results if you are continuing?
 
Maybe I’ll be next!?!? Congratulations! I used zyn to quit smoking ciggys over a year ago, and since quit my daily weed habit and once a week drinking….i just know my zyn are next 😢. Idk if im happy or sad about it.
 
It's too bad I don't distribute BD syringes and Nicoret anymore, or I would've made a truckload of money on this forum.

With you through this challenge.

Take more vitamin B3 or NR (or NAD injections), it helps some people with the withdrawal. It's worth a try.

You got this! Not sure if its the same for everyone, but I only actually think about it for 2 days and then its done.

The hard part is not buying a new can in 9 months time on a night out and starting the loop again

Honestly it's hard to tell if I have good results with klow... I have had a few changes in life in the last 10 months.: discovering carnivore diet, exercising regularly, then discovering reta, then finding out I have low t and being put on trt... all those changes while cycling threw the peps... I know I feal better now, then 10 months ago. My right knee no longer hurts(maybe klow fixed it, or maybe lossing 50 lbs did)? But now my left knee hurts, maybe becouse I walk 120,000 steps a week? I may never know if klow is helping,, but it's cheaper than a lot of vitamins that I take. Some people swear by klow and other peps. I think for some it's a real help, for others, maybe a little placebo affect.

I have 2 boxes of the BD syringes in .5 and 1ml 31g 8mm. I like them.
 
What dose of Reta are you on? I’m only on 2.5 now. I’m also on max dose of Tirzepatide, so I didn’t really plan on increasing my Reta….but I might if it would help with the nicotine issues.

I keep trying to quit, but it’s such a struggle. I gave up cigarettes year ago and traded them in for vaping…but this seems harder for me to give up. I keep “quitting” and falling back on. My fiance has let me know it’s a dealbreaker to him, so I guess he’s gonna break up with me if I don’t quit. Probably part of my issue is that I’m not quitting for me.

Most people need something to lean on. If you don't know if you want to quit, your probably not ready? How about cutting back, see how you feal about that?

MMMMMM the sound of that pisses me off 🤣🤣🤣 I need a vice, I'm not ready lol Hahahahaa

My worst nightmare is quitting zyn too soon and starting back to smoking ciggys.....I love a good drag. I call my zyn use harm reduction 😀
 
I am jealous of you quitters. 🥲 But all this definitely gives me hope. Tirz hasn’t curbed my vaping habit, but I’m also not ready to quit right this minute either.

Gonna try that B3 or NR when I am 👍
 
I'm currently weening down on my Zyn, and it's not going well at all. Was hoping Tirz would help but they have not. I have Zalt electrolyte pouches I've been alternating between when I feel the urge, but eventually the desire takes over them lip pillows seduce me back!

I am only on 1mg per week, and only had 2 doses so far. Nicotine does effect everyone differently, and I consider myself lucky I can stop cold turkey. But as I mentioned, my vice is the random urge to buy a can in a few months time.

I have just purchased some 'focus' pouches which are nic free. Some novelty BS im sure, but will be fun to try.
 
Made it to Friday!

The focus pouches are actually quite fun, they dont quite hit the spot, but they do definitely help with the physical withdrawal. Cant tell you where I got them - No source discussion! Joking. Sort of.
