I put the patch on today. I started with the medium level at 14mg. I was using a lower dose patch before at 7mg and cheating so I thought, well if I up the dose then maybe I can do that for a week or so and go back down.

So far it is working. Hooray. Of course it is still morning, but I've been up since really really early. So far so good.

I'm going to start a fresh diet and exercise so I'm really taking good care of myself and concentrating on my body so that it helps me get through and feel okay while I get used to the whole thing.
