I think it's time

[CrazyQ]

Yep.

I'm going to quit smoking. I know it will be tough, but I want my body back. Any tips? who's quit smoking and stayed off for good? how'd you do it? best method?

 

[Z_K]

Haven't had one for 4 months. Cold turkey. Went from 30 a day to **** all and honestly mate, it is a ****ing breeze.

For a month, you have to stay away from them. Don't see mates who smoke, don't hit the piss, don't smoke weed. You'll want them sometimes (with coffee after breakfast is hardest for me), but it's a good feeling kicking them.

 

[Mario the Lothario]

I just did it.

No voodoo required.

Ahhhh, that explains it.

Don't go outside at half time, even though you'd kill to go out and "calm the nerves".

 

[Paddy_Mac]

Finding an alternative to smoking is a good idea. Could be anything really. Just use it when you feel like you want to smoke. Could be as simple as chewing gun.

 

[year of the roo]

Yeah wish I could be more help but I just stopped one day. 4 years off now apart from the occasional dart out on the piss. No hypnotherapy, no nicorette, just a bit of mental strength I guess. Good luck.

The obvious answer is to find yourself a ridiculously hot girl who won't kiss you when you've been smoking. Kissing smokers can be f***ing revolting when you don't smoke, so you're kind of increasing your chances at finding one of those ridiculously hot types by quitting.

And get something else to put in your mouth (yeah, yeah), like Chupa Chups. I think you really have to want to quit though, if you're half arsed about it, it probably won't work.

I of course say this as someone who's never smoked a cigarette but who's dated a few smokers and ex-smokers.

Yeah, I've actually had this hot chick who wants me, but wants me to stop smoking first...and also buy who dinner...and take her shopping.

Bitch, I cant even buy myself dinner!

I've had 5 smokes since this thread, I usually smoke about 15-18 a day. I'm gonna try and just cut it down slowly. I'm looking at no more than 10 a day for the nexy 2 weeks, than 5 for the next 2 weeks than...BAM! clean again.

That reminds me, I need a shower.

Mate that is an obscene amount of effort she is after from you. Definite baby boiler alert.

Buy her dinner. It'll be worth it eventually. If you quit smoking you'll have more money to do that.

That's the Q we know.

None of this relationship bullshit.

Just stab a couple of pins into your testicles. The pain should make yah forget about smoking. Worked for me.

Yeah, that's me.

Shouldn't it be 'Operation Get in/Get Out/Get in/Get Out/Slap her/Get in/Get Out (repeat for an hour)'

?

 

[CrazyQ]

shouldn't it be 'operation get in/get out/get in/get out/tag team mother and daughter/get in/get out (repeat for an hour)'

?

efa.

If you still enjoy it and only think about stopping because you think you should, forget it. Enjoy them for a while longer until it doesn't make sense anymore, and then just stop.

Best and easiest way.

 

[Binxy]

just stop

It's the only way - every other method is a waste of time and money.

When I quit, I substituted food for cigs and quickly put on 30kg of pure blubber - it's taken me years to lose that.

Once you do quit, you'll never believe you smoked in the first place....and you get to be sanctomonious and holier than thou....which always goes down well with your mates.

I can't wait to get to that stage myself Binxy, seeing that I'm a pack a day man who runs and is obsessed about exercise. The fact I return from a run looking like I've walked out of a Turkish Steam House, sweat pouring off me, only to fire up a gasper is just bloody ridiculous!

Good luck CQ If you can do it, maybe there is hope for me following suit yet!

Now excuse me while I head out for one now

But you're a guy unless you've had the old cut and shut job done on yah just recently.
