Which is more unheathy, smoking or getting really fat? -
I-m a 67 y/o male. I have copd, heart disease, high blood pressure, emphazyma, and asthma.
I quite smoking on July 31 of this year, via the Chantix stop smoking plan. Prior to my stopping smoking I had gone from 252 lbs down to 218 lbs in about a year. I-m back up to around 250 labs now. Instead of smoking, I-m eating all the time!
I-m stressed out 90% of the time, too, with the craving for a cigarette. So, any opinions on this?Yes sir, I do.
Smoking for you should be considered from now on a terrible crime. You have COPD, emphysema, asthma and HBP, you cannot, should not be allowed to smoke ever ever never never again.
You gained weight? So be it! You will lose it again if you put your heart and mind to it.
See, if you keep yourself cigarette free you will be able to get up and walk to get rid of those extra pounds, but, if you go back to smoking then you won-t be able to exercise not even a little bit and you will die sooner than if you carry some extra pounds.
No to cigarettes.Hey... go ahead and smoke... you have already ruined your life...and smoking will kill you! For pete-s sake...READ what you wrote! How can you even consider smoking as an option!
Get a grip...and start walking! Good luck to you! Am sorry my sarcastic came out to bite you...but...geeeez!!!!... it-s time for me to go for MY walk!Smoking.With all the ailments you have, smoking would be more harmful to you...stop stressing...go out for a walk if you can, do something besides crave and stress...bothWhich is more unheathy, smoking or getting really fat? -

smoking a bit of grass everyday is really helping me stop smokinh loose weight and do more excersise ....it sort of focuses the mind etc
whats the long term effects ?Stop smoking in general. Smoking is bad for everybody, and everything.
if you stop smoking youl see your mind will be able to focus more because your brain isnt always thinking about your addiction. but long term affects of smoking weed is basicly the same thing as smoking cigaretes, drugs are all bad for you. you should get that through your brain. its HORRIBLY BAD FOR YOU, theres no reason to be doing it. it will get you high and then what. your back to normal. what did that accomplish? NOTHING, if you want to lsoe weight and stop smoking, chew nicotine gum. they sell those at most stores, and if you want to lose weight. go for a 1 or 2 hour jog in the morning and eat a good breakfast (cerial is a good one) and take vitamins everyday. you will find these things better for you to focus and lose weight (remember, more blood flow [from the excersize] which means more focus).long term happinessNutrilite? Double X? Multi – 10-day Supply is the best way which i recomend because is organic product and helps a lot to clean up your system and will restore your cells and also that gives natural energy,

you want to stop smoking so you could smoke??
thats just stupid.
stop everything
u will see a difference!!Well a few tokes of weed is BY FAR much better than a pack a day.
And weed does help natually treat the sorness and help repair muscles so it can help with that too.
Just as long as you don-t smoke 10 joints a day and you will be fine.
you could also try eating weed (*boil the weed in oil and use that oil in brownies) to avoid taking in smoke all togethernot really ...
smoking weed makes you eat more ( remember the munchies )
some research tells that smoking weed is as bad as smoking a cigarette ( if not worst)
i don-t think you can focus your mind while being high !
long term effects : you will be like many high school players who wakes up at night because they need their fix in order to sleep better ... bad addiction !
clean eating , workout and don-t give up ... even if you fall 9 times there is always another one ...
good luck ..There is no long term effect from smoking trees, if your smoking all day every day you start forgetting stuff, but that goes away if you cut down. And i agree with the focuses the mind, a good buzz makes me preform better with what ever I-m doing. And if any one says trees is worse than cigs its bs, there-s tons of awful chemicals in cigs only thing worse about trees is there more tar. Trees keep people open minded and down to earth to.Trying to loose weight stop smoking and do more excersise...will the green weed help ? -

dont use the nicotine patch.... its very harmful as it gives u nicotine into ur body all day long....

Unless you determine, no one including medicine can help you. just quit it no reduction and counting the days. keep away from negative influence like it helps to reduce tension, it is a better way to solve the broblem. condition your mind and whenever the thought comes, think of something like your child, job , best personality and avoid the thought entering your mind. Put it simply -Mind control- the best and surest way. nothing else.Wanting to quit. That-s the only way. If your friend doesn-t want to quit then you can-t help.
Good LuckUse the patch. It helped me.cold turkeyl did it cold turky. 2 yrs ago.This method works for me and is the only money back guaranteed.
I quit smoking 2 years ago
Get the Facts
Easyway, founded by Allen Carr in 1983, has the highest independently verified 12-month success rate (75.8% for a smoker completing the program) of any quit smoking technique and a 90% satisfaction rating.
Compare Easyway to other methods and see for yourself why Easyway is called “The Cadillac of quit smoking methods.”
The Allen Carr Method
HOW THE METHOD WORKS
Using psychotherapy, the method works in the opposite way to the “willpower” method. It does not concentrate on the reasons the smoker should not smoke : the money, the slavery, the health risks and the stigma. Smokers know all that already. Instead it focuses on why smokers continue to smoke in spite of the obvious disadvantages.
It is fear that keeps smokers hooked!
Fear the smoker will have to give up their pleasure or crutch. Fear the smoker will be unable to enjoy life or handle stress. Fear the smoker will have to go through an awful trauma to get free. Fear the smoker will never get completely free from the craving.
The Method removes these fears
Smokers quit with the Allen Carr Method as happy non-smokers, not feeling deprived but with a huge sense of relief and elation that they have finally achieved what they always wanted….
TO BE FREE!
What about the terrible withdrawal pangs from nicotine?
The physical withdrawal from nicotine is so slight that most smokers don’t realise that they are addicts. What smokers suffer when they try and quit using other methods is the misery and depression caused by the belief that they are being deprived of a pleasure or a crutch.
The Allen Carr Method removes this feeling of deprivation.
It removes the need and desire to smoke. Once the smoker is in the right frame of mind and they follow the simple instructions, the physical withdrawal from nicotine is hardly noticeable.
No Gimmicks!
The Method does not use any gimmicks, useless aids or substitutes. No nicotine gum, patches, lozenges, tabs, inhilators or nasal sprays! No needles! No lasers! No drugs! No herbs! No shock treatment!
The Allen Carr Method is successful because:
It removes the smokers’ conflict of will.
There are no bad withdrawal pangs.
It is instantaneous and easy.
It is equally effective for long-term heavy smokers and light smokers.
You need not gain weight.
You will not miss smoking.
Medical Endorsements
A personal view from Professor Judith Mackay MBE, JP, FRCO (Edin), FRCP (Lon), World Health Organisation Advisory Panel on Tobacco and Health
“I have no hesitation in supporting Allen Carr’s work. Many clinics use some of his techniques but it would appear that few do it in quite such a successful package.”
Carole Johnson, Coronary Heart Disease Prevention Unit, Tyne Tees
“his success rate was such that, when budgets allow, we continue to use Easyway for work with specific groups and individuals.”
Dr Anil Visa BSc, MBBch., FRCA, Consultant – Royal Hospitals NHS Trust – Royal London Hospital
“I have observed the Allen Carr method at first hand and have found it to be very successful and I wholeheartedly support it as an effective way to quit smoking.”
Dr William Green, Head of Psychiatric Dept, Matilda Hospital, Hong Kong
“It is a remarkable fact that Allen Carr, on his own admission a non-professional in behaviour modification, should have succeeded where countless psychologists and psychiatrists holding postgraduate qualifications have failed, in formulating a simple and effective way to stop smoking.”
Dr Martin Jarvis, Principle Scientist, Imperial Cancer Research
Fund and Reader in Health Psychology, University College London
”...I am more than happy to testify to Allen Carr’s enduring involvement and to recognise the value of the kind of behavioural and cognitive support he provides.”
Dr PM Bray MB CH.b., MRCGP
“I was really impressed by the method. In spite of the Allen Carr organisation’s success and fame, there were no gimmicks and the professional approach was something a GP could readily respect. I would be happy to give a medical endorsement of the method to anyone.”
Celebrity Endorsements
-His method is absolutely unique, removing the dependence on cigarettes, while you are actually smoking. I’m pleased to say it has worked for many of my friends and staff.”
Sir Richard Branson
“Some friends of mine who had stopped using Allen Carr’s method suggested I tried it. I did. It was such a revelation that instantly I was freed from my addiction. Like those friends of mine, I found it not only easy but unbelievably enjoyable to stay stopped.”
Sir Anthony Hopkins
GOOD LUCKsorry i cant help.
ive tried the patch, cold turkey, the throat lozengers kind,
and ive tried the gum ,i actually like smoking. so good lucj and ****, actually, im tired of crybaby people who dont smoke and need to preach and tell us to quit smoking.
if yer friend wants to quit, thats his/her perrogitve.Hypnotherapy works the BEST!!My freind used a nicatain patchget ur ears stapeled it really worksThe best way is cold turkey, why use other drug which may have other side effects.
The best news is, Everyone quits (DIES)..eventually..cold turkey and staying away from smokers!!!I used nicotrol, the inhalant. For about 2 days, yuk! It was so gross I ended up quiting cold turkey. Been smoke free since Jan. 2nd.Use the nicotine patch. OR just put a Skoal bandit between your toes. Idea is to get nicotine throught the skin. Try to think logically about the nicotine addiction. Your friend really doesn-t want to smoke, they just want nicotine to feed the addiction. So try the patch, Bandits...Nicorrette Gum...Whatever works best for them to get the nicotine and slowly withdraw from it without continuing the harmfull smoking. Millions quit every year so I am sure that your friend can to if they exercise discipline through the cravings. Good Luck!I-ve tried the patch and cold turkey. Neither worked for me. Now I-m thinking about hypnosis or accupuncture...use the medicine zybani used the patch, been quit a year and a half nowThe easiest way is to think about the consequences of not quitting and the benefits of quitting.cold Turkey nothing else works its all a scam I-m 3 months freeWhat is the easiest way to stop smoking? Cold turkey? Medication? Please help my friend.? -
