And then im gonna quit smoking. Cant keep burning £1642 a year

Any tips, its gonna be hard but its got to be done

 

Think Keith is spending the same amount on chewing gum!

 

Andy, get the Allen Carr book!

 

ive got this pack to finish and out they go. ive quit loads of times but now i actually dont enjoy smoking So im gonna kick the habit. Andy some phamacys give you all the patches and all that stuff for free if you go on there program. im gonna do it next week. just to help

 

Just say no...

 

Only have a cigarette after sex.

And I mean with someone else, knocking one out into your sock doesn't count.

 

i know a lad that got hypnotised and it actually worked. Cost about 70 quid

 

Think i might see the doc, I'm not paying for patches etc, id rather smoke because i do enjoy it

The big downer for me in 2 of the lads i work close with smoke like chimneys all day long

 

buy a car you absolutely love more than anything in the world ( my escort cosworth )

then go without food, fags, clothes, nights out, holidays, a decent phone, computers or anything else u used to like cos it will personally mug you for your cash each week !

but opening that garage door after a hard week makes it all worth it

 

Fook that!! Cant believe someone would pay £70 for that!!

 

get me on msn n ill send ya the silkquit prog

easy to see how well u r doing then

 

Why not ? Do that in 2 or 3 weeks on fags.............I know 2 guys who did that. And it worked for both.

 

spend it on beer instead. you'd soon be catching up with me beer gut sized !!!

 

Does this mean you're going to be even focking grumpier than you are now?

 

bigwelshlad


it appears i've got a differnt status !! what is the position with status verus #posts ?

fatboy !!!

 

£1642 a year would put me off

 

Well the way i see it, your either gonna give up or your not!! Its a costly enough habit as it is, let alone paying £70 to be hypnotised or pay through the nose for a course of patches!!

 

Yes, why not? It really did work, honest truth

 

Some people need a bit of help. If it helps and they stop, then £70 not to stink, ruin your health, be anti-social and spend a fiver a day on fags ain't a bad trade off is it ??

 

TonyTurbo has just sent it me pal


Paddy, fuck yeah

 

im quitting tomorrow

it wont last, but it sounds good

 

Your getting banned first Paddy


Andy I quit a few years back but do still enjoy the odd joint from time to time Its hard mate but well worth it

 

Gonna be a hard one!! Fags (nicotine) really are the most addictive drug on earth!!

Good luck

 

Ok Ok i believe u!!

 

when i stopped smoking i used pure willpower and i also WANTED to stop

no patches,books etc etc.

I stopped smoking about 2 years now and it's one of the best things I could have ever done

 

Andy,

My mum and dad stopped last year,, in fact it has been just over a year now. They are 60 yrs old and have smoked all their life....my dad was a chain smoker up until him retiring but still on about 25 a day. They stopped thru the doctor..perscribed patches etc.

they have not had a cig since and its the best thing they have done, and they too now realise just how ignorant they used to be with the stinky things

 

Try "adversion therapy" However many you smoke in a day you double or treble it. To the point where you feel sick. Then your body will feel sick every time you have 1, so you don't do it anymore.

 

I think your theory is flawed rich

 

Not my theory. I've never smoked. It may be bollocks though.

Theres a programme on the TV either today or tomorrow about it. Got Tara Palmer whatshername in it.

 

What about chain smokers who light one up off the one thats almost burnt out? They dont get sickof em

 

I dunno, your meant to exceed what you would normally have though.

However, I did a Google. Says it aint very successful. Only works for a small percentage of people.

 

What did it actually do?? I am considering this as I have NO wilpower AT ALL!!! Thats why I dont use / have never touched drugs.... I fear I would be hooked

 

i saw the clip for that.

Drugs are LESS addictive than fags, believe me!!!

 

get a ashtray full of dog ends in and put some water in then every time you fancy a cig have look & a sniff at the tray that will stop ya

 

Bu the Alan carr book. Pal has bought it and she's not smoked for 4 weeks now. And not even wanted too!

Failing that, think about what you'll get out of NOT smoking!

Yellow teeth
stinking like an ash tray
bad breath
less money
their banning it in pubs. . tells me allot about smoking!
you can breath easier
you can run for the bus without dying. . well in my case
your not always thinking about your next fag
you dont get moody when you dont have fags
your sleeping improves
your health in general improves
your skin/hair etc goes back to normal


list goes on. . and if that's not enough to make you stop then your mad!

i stopped 5 days ago and havent looked back! i enjoyed NOT wanting a smoke last night at a party. . my bird even gave me her fags to keep in my pocket and not once did i think "take one"

 

Don't know mate, i'll ask him next time i see him. From what i remember though you still need a bit of will power as you still get the occasional urge for a cig. But apparently it made it a lot easier to resist.

The lad has been stopped over a year now and is very anti smoking now he has realised how bad it was.

 

As read in Zoo magazine.

Quite Date:
Blood pressure and pulsa rate fall instantly.

Morning after Quit date:
Carbon monoxide leaves the body and is replaced by oxygen

Two days after quit date:
Lungs discharge mucus, while rsidual carbon dioxide from smoking leaves the body.

Four days after quiting:
With your bronchial tubes no longer under stress, energy levels hit the roof.

Two to 12 weeks after quiting:
Rejoice as your body's circulation improves and you feel healthier.

Six weeks after quiting:
Finally able to run for the bus?

Three - nine months after quiting:
Lung function improves by 10% and smoking related breathing problems becoming a thing of the past.

Five years on:
Half as likely to have a heart attack compared to a smoker.

10 years on:
Half as likely to get lung cancer compared to people who puff, with the chances of having a heart attack falling to the same levels as someone who has never smoked a cigarette in their life.



Each cigarette smoked contains a poisenous metal called cadmium. . the same substance usually found in household batteries!
