nicotine patch

0utrider

well, I have done pretty well so far. lost about 38 pounds, and am pretty happy where I am. If I drop 8 more I would be in the normal bmi range. I quit smoking on Jan 8th using the nicotine patches. I don't need them anymore in regard to the smoking. But when I take them off for a day or two I get so dang hungry. I am fairly concerned because I'd love to just get rid of the patch. What can I do about the hunger. It is definitely hunger. I don't crave a cigarette when I take the patch off, I crave carbs like a big dog.

thank you in advance
