Everytime you want a cigarette but don't have the opportunity to smoke some weed instead, just chew some gum. I quit smoking back in November after smoking for almost 13 years and if it wasn't for the gum, I would never have made it. Bascially I'm replacing my addiction to cigarettes with an addiction to gum. But hey, at least gum won't give me lung cancer.

That reminds me of a pizza place down by my work. They have this sign hung up on the front saying "Free Pizza Tomorrow".  :grin:

I went to lights. That was my big move to keep from quitting right away. It's working, in as much as I don't cough as much, it's definitely a step in the right direction.

Once I feel completely acclimated to lights, I'll either jump to ultra lights or start cutting down the number per day. Cold Turkey has never worked, so I'm trying something new, can't hurt.

I quit smoking cigarettes over a week ago, but I do smoke a cigar every day. I love nicotine, and I see no reason to quit that. But intentionally drawing toxic smoke over my tender bronchioli and alveoli 15 times a day is inexcusable. Cigars are tastier and require no inhaling. Last night I drank few beers and the urge to smoke a cigarette was insanely overpowering, but fortunately I wasn't around any. After that experience, I don't think I should be going to a bar to drink any time soon. I'd end up bumming smokes off people all night!

It is a shame because quitting smoking sometimes means a 20 lb weight gain. Is it better to smoke than to be fat??

oh yeah, drinking water might help out. every time you get a craving, drink a glass of water. when i was in basic training, i drank water when i wanted a smoke. it became second nature.

plus, drinking water is good for you, keeps you hydrated and all that. if your piss isnt almost clear, you should probably drink at least 1 cup just to get you hydrated.

Buy a pack or two of Pall Malls or some other nasty cigarette.  Chain Smoke them all, and you will never want a ciggarette again.  If you don't feel like doing that, certain areas give away free nicotine patches, because my friend you ARE addicted to nicotine.  Good Luck, becuase God knows that I do not have the will power to quit.  Peace  :cool:

Never knew you smoked Gumby.. I have had a problem with it for years also. I find that temporarily replacing it with something that can keep your hands or mouth busy can help. I don't really get that irritable when i don't smoke either, it's just that i get used to smoking when I'm sitting still or bored. That makes it harder to just sit and relax without smoking.
Best luck to quitting. Feels like my hands have to be doing something. Even if you slip up, don't give up.

here's how i quite smoking,

1. first go can buy some copahegan( i am suggestion copaheg because it is the strongest as far as nicotine, beleive it or not chewing its harder to get your nicotine) chew, the burbon flavored stuff.

you could also try redman golden blend loose cut stuff in the big pouch it is another favorite of mine.

it will take you about a week to learn to chew it right and then about a week later you will be able to lay the cigs down.(this is chewing about 3 times a day)

2. at this point you can switch over to skoal and try all there flavors, some are very tasty like berry blend is a fav.

3. next now that your onto skoal, you need to move onto pouches these pouches give you very small hits of chew, it will be a little hard converting to these, but its not to bad.

4. now that your onto lower levels of chew, it will be a snap to quite chewing, all you need to do now is to buy sunflower seeds....or beef jerky...anything to keep your mouth moving....and during yoru cravings do something to keep your mind or body bizzy...i play video games but im a nerd.

do these steps and you won't fail...just make sure you don't chew anymore than 3 or 4 times a day.

Given an option between the two, I'd say smoking is more unhealthy than being overweight. Of course, that's not to say being overweight isn't unhealthy as well.

Nobody will love you if you're fat though, so you'll probably off yourself at christmas after not getting any presents for the third time.

So far, I've cut back a lot. I typicaly manage 4-5 cigarettes a day as compared to 20 a day. I think I might go buy some nicotine gum so that I can just quit smoking for good. I'm already feeling healthier after cutting back.

Yea Gumby i would suggest just quitting cold turkey. It's really the only way. Don't get the patch cause it's still putting nicotine into your system.The idea is to stop putting nicotine into your system. Don't smoke tobacco. The only way i'll smoke anything with tobacco in it is if i'm smoking a blunt, MAYBE a spliff with SOME tobacco in it. But certainly not like a half and half sorta deal. I just won't.

You quit becuase you want to quit, cause it's nasty and really bad for you. it will kill you and other people, and the government is making money at your healths risk, on your dime, and your life. It's expensive and... something i learned today, a bidproduct of a burning cigarette is Cyanide. You and people around you are breathing cyanide when you smoke...

It might relieve stress and relax you but so does like, screaming and warm showers and running and sex and music and chocolate. The positives of smoking are easily replacable.

Also the damage smoking does to your health in comparison to your health 5 or 10 pounds heavier than what you are now is WAY more. Smoking cigarettes is DEFINITLY worse than gaining 5 or 10 pounds.

I've quit for about 4 days, i had my last cigarette tuesday night. I quit for now and have been saying all of this to myself everytime i think of not smoking as a bad thing. a lot of it is mental. you have to get yourself to stop thinking of it as a deprivation but as a good thing that you stop smoking. You ARE doing yourself a favor. I wish you luck.
