Methods to Stop Smoking
Face it, you are hooked and no mire article or word will ever help you stop. I have personally been involved with family members and close friends who have lost their lives or are battling cancer due to smoking.
The Fact Is, you need to stop for your family, your friends and yourself!
No one method may be right for you. There a numerous products, books and plans available on the internet.
The possibility that you can stop on your own is very low. None of my close relationship could do it.
What are the some of the most asked questions about smoking?
1. Why should I quit smoking?
The facts about smoking related effects are widely known:
According to the CDC there are 438,000 premature deaths related to either smoking or second hand smoke every year.
If you are a male you have a 22% higher chance of lung cancer than non smokers.
If you are a female you have a 12% higher chance of lung cancer.
Smoking during pregnancy could also have a direct effect not only on the mother but also on the infant.
- Possible complication in the pregnancy
- Possible premature birth
- Even low-birth weight
Smoking is a addiction plain and simple.
The addiction can be seen in as few as four weeks from the time someone begins to smoke. The sad news is that most of these are our teenagers succumbing to peer pressure.
2. Will I gain weight?
On the average most people will gain about 10 pounds.
3. I have tried to quit before and it didn't work, what do I now?
Most people try to quit at least 2 to 3 times before they finally kick the habit. You need to pick out what was working for you in each of those tries and build on that this time.
There is no ONE method that works for everyone!
