Why do girls who smoke cant stop smoking? -
This questions is for female smokers!People who smoke are addicted to the mental -high- they get from it. If you can break that psychological addiction, you can stop smoking - this is often used as a crutch by people who never wanted to stop smoking in the first place - -I can-t, it-s too difficult-, -I can stop any time I like-...
A lot of girls smoke because it-s an appetite suppressant and will help keep them slim - a ploy both anorexics and models use to their advantage. The reason that most people put on weight after stopping is because they need something to do with their hands and mouth, and eating fills that void - as well as the appetite returning.
Trust me, I know what I-m talking about - six years ago, I was on 80 a day and on April 11th, 2000, I stopped and haven-t had one since. It-s one of the best things I-ve ever done.honestly i agree with that guy who mentioned addictiveness.Necotine makes you addicted to it.and tar in it makes your lungs die out slowly............so im not even surprised if mine are...Im only 19 though....Im just looking for a fast way out of life the way i smoke.I gave up smoking for seven months and started again at my mums funeral. She died off lung cancer. How stupid is that?? Three years on and I-m still smoking.I quit 4 months ago so it can be done. I smoked 20 a day for 25 years but I-ve got no intention of starting again. The first week of quitting was the worst - I had horrendous insomnia. I didn-t like the premature wrinkles and receding gums I was starting to get. I didn-t stop for health reasons, purely for vanity. I read the Allen Carr book and I found that helped a lot. I never thought a self-help book would do any good, but I was proved wrong.Smoking is an addiction... just like drugs and alcohol. I wish I could quit... but I doubt that I ever will, even knowing the results.the same reason boys cant stopIt may shock you to discover that smoking is addictive.Im a girl. I smoke because I like it. Have smoked for 10 years on and off. Got a problem with that buddy????
Sorry, need another f*ag!Same reason men can-t.....!
Is this a trick question then?speaking as a female smoker (for this question) i think its for the same reason as male smokers, smoking is addictive. full stopWell i stopped 3 months ago so that-s not trueThe same reason men cant!!Coz its an addiction!! xWhy do girls who smoke cant stop smoking? -

I need to stop smoking. Like everyone I have stress at work and home. I smoke I guess to relax but I really am trying to quit. Need help with taking the first step in quiting. Don-t want to take any medications.Very Good - It is a silent poison for death.
You can not stop it by-
gradually reducing or
reducing step by step or
smoking only on occasions etc.etc.,
You have to decide and implement on that moment itself and throw the cigarettes in had.
Only WILL POWER will achieve your stop smoking.
By smoking you do not get any sort of enjoyment and whatever you feel is only an illusion and on the other hand it helps persons to get heart ailments and cancer fast.
I am writing this with my personal experience.
Good Luck for quiting SMOKINGi also ned to quit dipping snuff. if you ever figure out how let me know. i,m not being a smart a** either. this is a serious problem for me socialy and healthwise. nicotine has ben pprover to be as adictive as herion. what chnces have we got especialy when the loud mouth reformers are constantly yelling at us?answer me that,an naybe we can get someinsight as to their way of thinking. we tobacco usere are all well awareof the health hazzard involver and none of us need to hear it preached to us again. my best to you and good luckThe only way to quit is keep trying don-t give up on yourself. I am in the same boat quit 4 months ago. How just keep trying. when it gets bad I chew that gum. Feel sick to my stomach and remind myself cigarettes are worsedont stop ,let it be in a limit sweratheartburn the cigars, burn the shop that sell them, and burn anyone who smoke. doneI recently quit smoking after 8 years of being a half to full pack a day smoker. The only way I was able to quit is because my fiance and I did it together. He was a pack to 2 pack a day smoker for 13 years. We went on the patch (it may be mostly mental, but I swear it helped), and he went to the occasional cigar for the first month. We were on the patch for a little over two months, then didn-t need -em anymore. We-ve now been smoke-free for over 8 months. The best thing I could advise to do is find a friend or loved one that also wants to quit, and do it together. Support is key. Also, check out www.quitnet.com. It-s a great online resource for quitters. If you want to talk further about quitting smoking, feel free to e-mail me at agtease02@yahoo.com.join a stop smoking group (look online for one) and gradually cut down, then stop...and never look backIve been in your boat. It-s a hard thing to do, but its possible.
First off you need to quit cold turkey. Then minimize use of things that remind you of smoking or create a craving (i.e. coffee, liquor, etc.). Then find substitutes like gum, twizzlers, etc to put in your mouth. One note, if you can stand it, black liquorice is a GREAT substitute, for whatever reason it-s taste cuts down on the cigarette taste craving.
Keep a calander, and remind yourself that the first 21-28 days are the hardest, thats your body going through the nicotine withdrawal. After that its just habbit withdrawal, but the physical withdrawal will be over.You need to surround yourself with non smokers. I took some nicorette gum for about 10 days, chew twice and leave in your cheeks until the urge hits you again, When it comes sit back and do deep breathing exercises, it-ll take about two minutes and it will pass. Drink lots of water, go for walks, go to the mall,
If you usually had a smoke after dinner, go straight to the kitchen.
The first 3 days will be horrible, but it-ll get easier after that.
I wrote an e-mail to all the people I know and told them I quit and updated it every month, And they send me encouragements.
Now, its been 14 months.
You can do it.Eat a brick, turn around five times, scratch your head, and hop on one foot for a minute. Then you won-t be addicted anymore.Need to stop smoking? -

Is it possible to lose weight just after quitting smoking? -
Stopped smoking two weeks ago, back to the gym last week. Is it possible to lose weight with an active weight training routine even though my metabolism is slowing down? Thanks.You are doing wonders for your body by not smoking. When they say smoking keeps you skinny, that is a myth. It keeps your lungs black is what it does. It is very possible to lose weight with exercise and eating healthy, in fact you will feel much better! I suggest you buy sugarfree gum so when you crave nicotine, you can chew on it, because they say people gain weight when they quit not from not smoking cigs, but because they buy candy and eat candy constantly.
You are doing yourself a favor! Be proud that you are one step closer to a healthier lifestyle!
Please answer mine?

Do not starve your self(it never works, although that-s the first thought that crosses anyone-s mind when thinking to lose weight)Drink lots of water. Your body needs sufficient water to burn fat and keep your cells hydrated and healthy.Eat healthy, drink lots of water, have enough sleep and exercise. This will give you a higher chance of losing weight and improving your health, which would result to a new, healthier you.
Here-s some other quick tips for you:
* Do not skip meals. Skipping meals slicks the body into slowing down the metabolism, attempting to conserve calories during a period where limited fats and fuel are available. Remember that eating increases the metabolism.
* Learn how to make the family favorite recipes and make sure that fats, salt, and sugar are cut out. Substitute non-fat yogurt for cream, stir-fry without oil and use herbs and spices instead of salt to taste.
* As much as possible do not remove the skins of fruits and vegetables since most of the nutrients are concentrated under the skin.
* One of the best sources of vegetable protein is from soya beans or tofu. All legumes provide some protein, so include lentils, lima beans etc into casseroles and soups.
* Remove fat by dropping ice cubes into the baking tray. Fat will stick to the ice cubes.
If you have started losing weight, just remember it-s a question of will. Keep doing what your-re doing, stay away from junk food and sodas, and you will feel more healthier and alive than never before.Have you tried fasting for a couple of days? I wanted to do it right and still get nutrients so I used the 2-Day Fasting Formula from Beachbody and lost about 9 pounds. I am sure everyone has different results but I tried it and it worked for me. By allowing your body to stop breaking down food for a day or two, your metabolism can get caught up so it is able to begin burning off stored fat.
They say that theses are the key benefits for using their fasting formula:
? Helps reduce cravings and burn off hard-to-lose fat
? Supports total-body cleansing
? Supports and invigorates the body’s natural energy production
? Supports increased weight loss from your fitness routine
? Available in Chocolate and Vanilla

Yes it is possible. I was in the same situation not too long ago. I stopped smoking awhile ago and I was worried about the same thing. If you stay active and eat within reason you shouldn-t gain too much weight. You might not even gain weight at all. I actually lost weight. I was worried about gaining weight as a result of quitting so I started exercising more than I had been and I changed up my diet. I-m about 10 pounds less than when I was smoking. It helps to just build up a habit of working out regularly and eating healthy regularly. I use

to track my workouts and diets. My friends and I use the site and we keep each other motivated.The best way to lose wight (also the hardest way) is to do lots of exercise and eat not much, mainly carbohydrates (flour bread pasta ect) lay of the sugar and fatty foods, and do exercise! 5 mins every hour will do it.count calories and keep them at 1200-1500 a day. your a bit heavier so maybe start of THE MOST at 1800. dont drink anything but water, a lot of unknown calories come from drinks.
fill up on fruits and veggies!
eat very healthy.
can-t you go walking at all? thats like working out but not vigorous. if you are allowed to do that i would suggest 30m-1hr a dayI heard it is rarely possible to do, since your metabolism drastically slows down when you quit smoking. I smoke and want to quit but I am also trying to lose weight too. I know, it-s hard, isn-t it? sorry, i guess this is a bad answer, but good luck! wish me luck too!Spices increase your body metabolism and thus help burn fat. Examples: Cumin, Hot pepper, Cayenne peppers, Ginger, Turmeric.
Drink lots of water it helps to increase metabolism.
