First order doesnt quite hit the spot..

I understand Simplesmoke's problem with the nico sick. Personally if you're coming off the cigs I think snussing until you're nico sick is good. When it gets to that point you know you've got enough nicotine, simply take it out and in about a minute the nico sick has gone.

YDIW-

Hey man I was feeling the exact same way up until about a half hour ago. I cracked my first can of los. This is the first time I haven't been fiending for a smoke while I had a snus in. I'm just enjoying the flavor. I like Nick and Johnny's Strong and Thunder Frosted for portions. I thought Thunder Frosted was burning a hole in my lip the first time I had it in. But, they never quite got me to not smoke. I've got an Ettan los pris in right now and it's freaking awesome! I can see why most here are so big on it. So, yeah try some los as someone already mentioned.

Los also has waaaaaay more flavor which I'm guessing will help alleviate the cig cravings.

The snus will win out. I'm confident of that. Smoking sucks.

Just chain sterk some Thunder, when you smoke youll want to puke from the overload. Worked for me! My last cigarette was barely a week after I started snussing. Havent had a single one since.

I'm six weeks free of a love affair with smokes that lasted over 30 years. Nothing worked. I discovered snus in 2008, bought a bunch, used it every now and then but kept on smoking. Fortunately, it stayed fresh in the freezer. I had to quit smoking because I couldn't breath. Could barely get up the stairs. I was smoking 2.5~3 packs a day and drinking way to much. I dropped both at the same time using my old snus in massive quantities! Extra Stark Skruf Los, Thunder portions, Ettan, Bla, and Gots Rape did the trick. I fiddle with the tins a lot and I pack the los with my fingers which keeps my mind busy while waiting for a lip full to take affect. I double barrel everything, even Thunder. Sometimes I double barrel los! I even do a portion on one side, and los on the other just to mix things up. I also take a break and let the craving kick in on purpose, then stuff in a big fat salty glob, sit back and let it do it's magic. I haven't had a smoke, and don't keep them around at all. I snus on the plane, in the truck, even at work while in meetings. (use mini's for that). The portions I don't like to much I use for throw aways...like if I know I have to eat soon, I'll throw in some General just to get rid of them. Once you establish new rituals associated with snus, you'll stop thinking about smoking all the time. That's what has worked for me. Oh, and I've lost weight, can do 5 miles (walking, little running) and lift weights without problems now. The lungs cleared up pretty damn quick. I feel much better, don't stink, and the wife is waaay happier!! I can't imagine going back at this point. This forum was also critical for me. You'll learn a hell of a lot from the old timers around here.

Pack that lip full of ES los. In about 5 min you will know lady nic very intimately. Do this each time you need a fag (cig).

I found I needed to switch to an additive free brand of smokes before I was able to switch to snus. Not sure how it works in NZ... but in the states there are two brands which they claim only have tobacco (american spirit and winston. Which are the most expensive brands it seems) Anyway I had to switch to one of those two brands for a week before I was able to leave smoking behind for snus. The first 3-4 days are the worst but after that you're good.

To echo what many have said here already. I'd say get you're self some Los. Hand baking will help fill in the rolling of the Cig. and the better Nic. absorption will help you're caving the drug. I'm goting to shout out Odens Extra Stark Kanel as it is so darn tasty it will blow you're mind. In disclosure I should say I have only have it in portions.None the less get you're self some.
