Have you tried and tried to quit smoking but it never seems to stick? I found some interesting information on foods that can assist you in your efforts!I have personally never smoked as I had an embarrassing introduction to cigarettes in tenth grade at the local Pizza Hut in front of a guy I liked and that was it for me. Spitting water on the object of your affection while coughing to death from the cigarette smoke at the same time is enough to turn one off . Never again.

Avoid These Foods If you Want To Quit Smoking-They Make Cigarettes Taste Better

I am sure you have noticed that the foods to help you quit smoking are all on the healthy side while the foods to avoid if you want to quit smoking are on the far less healthy end of the spectrum. Makes sense I think.
Keep in mind that I am not saying these foods will make you quit smoking-I understand that smoking is a tough thing to quit but I hope that maybe these food choices can help in making this very difficult transition slightly easier.
P.S.You should also include exercise as it can help smokers ward off cravings for cigarettes.

I like it, keep it up
Quitting smoking is the best thing you could do for your health. The withdrawals and cravings are only temporary and the benefits lifelong.
The important thing to remember is that once you quit never try it again because you will eventually get hooked again.

- is this for real? how can you drink 30 or 40 liters of water in a day? :|
He he learned one of the things used to cure tobacco is sugar. That's why smokers often crave a cigarette after eating.
So what he did was consume a spoonful of honey after eating, in order to deal with cravings after meals.
Seriously .... I would love to quit, maybe I just use stress as an excuse not to right now, and I definitely have a passion for coffee .... I don;t want to got he route of medical stuff to help stop .... maybe some tips like these and flat out willpower are what it will take.
BTW .... love the new pic you have up .... :)
I agree with Mamaflo that the experience is different for everyone - in my case it was 6 months of misery before the craving subsided . It's almost inevitable that people try to find substitutes, which is why many put on weight after stopping smoking . I would suggest that the best advice is to recognise that you're going to need substitutes and to urgently find low-calorie ones !
happy monday.
I quit smoking 19 years ago, after smoking for 19 years...I made the decision one day and that was the end of it...I never really had cravings to smoke again but I did want to smoke which is totally different...I never did though...I consider myself lucky!
Cheers
I used to be a smoker and all I did was go cold turkey but I had my relapses. I can finally say I am not tempted by cigarettes anymore — it's been a five-year struggle, but well worth it!
Try adding some Milk Thistle as a liver tonic. Smokers and drinkers damage their liver more than anyone in this world.
If you quit smoking but your liver is already half damage. Maybe, the tonic can be a great start with quit smoking plans.
happy weekend heidi.....
My personal experience with chantix was a terrible experience, sure I quit smoking, but I changed, I lost control of my anger and still struggle with the side effects, this drug is very powerful. The Adult dose is 1mg a day, The drug’s producer Pfizer Australia says some neuropsychiatric symptoms, including suicidal behaviour, have occurred in patients on the drug and dozens of suicides are connected with its use.
