My husband smokes (camel non filters!) and I know how hard it is for him because he has tried to quit many times. Although I don't smoke, I have my own addiction to fast food, its sooo hard, and I desparately need to cut back for my health too. Hang in there hold on tight. You can do it!<BR/><BR/>MarilynAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226280836740630353.post-71637783571256080122009-03-25T07:41:00.000-05:002009-03-25T07:41:00.000-05:00Way to go GirlI know how hard it is...I quit 1 yea...Way to go Girl<BR/>I know how hard it is...I quit 1 year ago in feb 08...and there are days that are still very hard for me...the price is what keeps me from them...Some tips <BR/>start a good eating habit...and lots of exercice...like walking<BR/>and take alot of deep slow breaths<BR/>it really helps.....<BR/>Good Luck to you Okie<BR/>Your in my thoughts<BR/>Wandamagicwandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08737864172378907403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226280836740630353.post-58948492733727920812009-03-25T00:48:00.000-05:002009-03-25T00:48:00.000-05:00Good for you.

What helped me was that I would chew a piece of gum when I would normally smoke. Not nicotine gum, just regular gum. The act of getting the piece out of the pack was the same as a cigarette for me, especially if it was the gum that comes in the little flip top boxes. I often found myself "packing" a pack of gum, but hey it worked. Haven't smoked since.<BR/><BR/>My husband is right now taking Chantix with some success. <BR/><BR/>Good Luck!Kimmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08601476111948312545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-226280836740630353.post-26351591706252370502009-03-24T12:37:00.000-05:002009-03-24T12:37:00.000-05:00Take as long as you need Okie, we will all still b...Take as long as you need Okie, we will all still be here to cheer you on!
