when you go cold turkey it can really mess up your blood sugar levels and make you feel dizzy, sick, lack of concentration etc so have some chocolate or fruit on hand for a few days until your body levels out again.
That's sort of how I did it every time too. I didn't like there durations they set. You would have been on them for three months or so and I wanted the nicotine out of me as fast as possible but I think something like this is best, but you'll probably do it more than once (even if you do follow their rules).
