How i can stop smoking for ever?? -

How i can stop smoking for ever?? -

I agree. I went cold turkey and am on Day 60. I feel great, I-ve stopped coughing, I can breathe deeply, and best of all, I can sing again! I was a pack-a-day smoker for 50 years, so if I can do it, so can you.

But you have to want to. I retired and just couldn-t afford it any more on Social Security, so I made up my mind that I had to. Gum and patches just prolong the agony by keeping nicotine in your system - and they are as expensive as a carton of cigarettes!

Nobody said this was easy. But so many others have done it that I had confidence that I could as well. If you have the determination, join the pack (oops! Wrong word!) er, join the crowd and kick the habit!just quit..cold turkey.. if you really really want to stop then you will.. the patches all of that stuff is soo expenisve...try doin somethigne lse too.. like when you get a craving.. try instead of smoking put a candy in your mouth or try chewing gum...
and think of all the people in your family that live with you that are being infected...it will change your view on everything... the last thing you want is to give your child cancer from second hand and he never smoked a cigarette in his life

good luck to you...!! and
YOU CAN DO IT!!Get a copy of this book: -The Easy Way to Stop Smoking- by Allen Carr.A friend of mine went for laser treatment and it seems to be effective. You can also go to the doctor ask for Nicotin Patch prescription, some people find it better than gum.Just decide... I did, after 25+ years of never less than one and never more than 4 packs a day. Pathes and gum and other are just toys, substitutes that keep your mind dependent on something. Reky on yourself only - be stubborn, it works.sky_1977 s They are Talking about you...!!

Please help! I can`t stop myself from eating? -

Please help! I can`t stop myself from eating? -

I was 115 lbs just 2 months ago but then i stop smoking. Now i`m always hungry.Those of you who smoke or use to smoke can relate.My stomach is always big and hard.Very tight and uncomfortable.
Now its going to be easy for some of you to say -just stop eating so much- but it`s not that easy. when i start craving for a cigarette i have to either smoke one or eat in order to make the craving go away.Gum does n work,reading does n work nor does sex,exercise,meditating,peppermints,or trying to stay asleep as much as possible.I am 41 years old and too old too over eat or smoke.What can i do to curve the craves,i am now 142 lbs. help me guys!have more sex i swear it worksI have never smoked,but my mother used to when she stoppedshe ate sunflower seeds they distract you from wanting a ciggerete and they arent fattning..hope this helps:)good that you quit smoking,drink a lot of water and eat more vegetable and fruitMy best advice for you Ms. is that you dont carve yourself or either smoke. I have a way to solve your problem. I want you to eat which is a lot better than smoking. Congrajulations for your persistence so far. Now, I can see you are working toward a change in your life and you have spent this time to make a difference in your life. I want you to eat but eat moderately. You need to change slowly and step by step. If you have to eat a lot then I advice you eat what is healthy and non fat. Eat a lot and burn it at a gym.

Another advice to lower you consumption is to drink a lot of water. Eat foods high with fiber and they will fill your stomach easily. I used to eat a lot but now i have changed the food from fatty foods to healthy foods. SLOWLY Though!

Keep up girl:)

Where can I find a laser technique to stop smoking in Louisiana? -

Where can I find a laser technique to stop smoking in Louisiana? -

Go out and find a 100 watt laser at a science shop somewhere. Then wire a trigger to you pack of smokes such that everytime you remove a cigarette from the pack it fires the laser at the side of your head. This might not actually work if the laser should also accidentally light the cigarette for you. The convenience factor might outweigh the trips to the emergency room.

I-ve looked at the site that anoter answerer had posted about laserconcepts. And...It-s 90% hogwash. It seems to me getting outside in the sun or using a heating pad or hot water bottle will have the exact same physical stimulous as their laser. Don-t waste your money.Greet-s There is currently NOTHING associated with a laser beam that will curb your craving for nicotine. What you have heard is nothing but snake oil quackery. PEACE, TJI don-t even see how that would be possible.Hope this helps

Has anyone else suffered extreme mood swings while taking Chantix? -

Has anyone else suffered extreme mood swings while taking Chantix? -

About 6 weeks ago i started taking Chantix to help me stop smoking. It has helped my cravings, but almost immediately i noticed myself becoming extremely angry and irritable. I wake up angry most of the time, and am prone to -snapping- at the drop of a hat. Normally im a pretty laid back guy, and am just wondering, am i the only one that has noticed this side affect?I was only able to physically tolerate Chantix for 4 weeks related to nausea , fortunately I was was able to quit smoking . The nausea was awful for me , I was irritable but I think that was related to my lifestyle changes,The habits related to my cigarettes I had to change . I went outside with my friends and smoked , I smoked after meals , I called a certain friend every day when I smoked outside , I smoked when I was stressed , I smoked before I had a challenge to meet ,after meals , I rewarded my self with cigarettes etc ...... I did avoid some of my friends for awhile , because they smoked . Everything in my life was effected some way by my cigarettes and the habits I acquired by smoking....I never realized the drug nicotine affected so much , my heart rate , my sleep , it sped me up ,made me hyper..... When I stopped it , I was irritable , depressed because I had to change many things I had did and the way I did them ......Also I did not realize how bad smokers smell until I quit , I am embarrassed to think I smelled like smokers do.......
www.CHANTIX.com has lots of good info ...

Good Luck , being irritable is better than the irreversible side effects of cigarettes ...Keep with it ! :)
