I consume 6 to 9 sticks a day Marlboro lights. There is one technique I got from Discovery Channel's Body Challenge. There was a guy who cut down on his smoking by putting all the sticks he would consume in a day in a sealable sandwich bag. He would bring it with him everyday and he can only smoke what is inside the bag. The secret there was that it made him conscious on how much more cigarette he has left and that it would help him budget it. I think after two weeks he would cut the number down by 2 and so on until there was only 1 left.

Anywayz, I can control my intake on an average of 6 sticks a day but it took me years to do that. To supplement the quit process though, you need to do more cardio and detoxification activities because you need to speed up the recovery process (I mean the heart, lungs and liver had a direct impact with your smoking habit directly proportional to the degree of abuse it has been tolerating.) It is estimated that the recovery period is equal to twice the number of years you smoked. A smoke patch can be very useful in kicking the habit but cost is also a matter of consideration. Most inexpensive supplement would have to be candies. But please bear in mind that candies contain a high quantity of refined sugar and other processed materials which can help pollute the blood and increase the risk of diabetes. Hope that helps

quitting= death

 

most smokers would die rather than quit smoking and most also would quit only when they die

I quit smoking April 11, a day before the Holy Week, and a day before my week-long vacation in Boracay. I told myself, if i could quit for a week, if i could bar-hop every night and not smoke, I'd make it. Today is the 9th of July and I haven't puffed a smoke since then.

 

Oh, boy but it ain't easy. People who smoke who know you smoke are sometimes the ones who make it difficult for you to quit. They'd invite you to a yosi break. They'd take you to restaurants with good smoking areas. They'd show you what bliss it is to smoke after lunch, during breaks, over coffee. And that's the most difficult part of it -- they'd show, not just tell -- you off from quitting.

 

But the best part of it is --- you win over yourself.

 

Also, try going back to the gym. I did. :cool:
