Day number three of no smoking. The Zyban is giving me dry mouth. I drink water all day and still feel thirsty.
I'm only taking a very low dosage of Zyban along with 14mg of the patch. Cravings are minimal.. it's just the habit I need to break. What's most surprising is the dizzy spells. I don't know if that's a side effect of the Zyban or withdrawl from the nicotine.
Also, my lack of appetite. The last time I quit, all I could think about was salt or sugar and I gainedgainedgained. Ah! There it is! That's why I'm getting dizzy. I haven't been eating! Yesterday I ate half a sandwich for lunch. I was absolutely famished when I got home and tried to eat a hotdog. Tummy rejected it immediately, but somehow I was able to eat half a pint of Ben and Jerry's and a couple macadamia / white chocolate cookies half an hour later with no incident.
Today I've had a banana. And coffee and water. I seriously need to force myself to eat something before I fall over. I've got the worst headache right now.

I'll cross my fingers and toes for you on the smoking.
