"ARTE ET MARTE"

Before trying the Butt Out program, I had been trying to quit smoking for about 1 year without success.  I smoked for 12 years and quit for 6 then before starting again in1999.  All it took was 1 drag and I was hooked again.  For the last year I tried to quit on and off but found it too difficult.  I had seen the Butt Out program advertised on the buy and sell in Base Petawawa.  I thought this time, I needed a little help getting through the quitting process and the cravings, so I signed up for the program.

The program offered many different crutches to help you through the rough times.  Some examples of this are the nicotine patch, Zyban, nicotine gum and of course all the peer support you need in these rough times.  i personal chose the patch and everyone else on the program chose their drug of choice.  Some went cold turkey.  Everybody on the course gets the peer support for free which is needed alot in the first 3 or 4 weeks.

You start the educational part of the program a few weeks before the set quit day, which means everybody on the program quits the same day.  Before each lecture they took our CO reading (my average was around 20 and the normal non smoker is <7).  It It was amazing to see that after I had quit smoking that my CO dropped to about 4.  Not everyone is successful at quitting but you can't ever give up as you feel much better in the long run, you save money and your health risks drop.  "If at first you don't succeed try try again" It took me several attempts to quit smoking but with the help of the Butt Out program I have been smoke free for just over 3 months now.
