people say they have ever had to do who have done it; especially for those who have smoked for ten years or more.

smoking tips that should be easy for anyone to follow. If you work, plan to begin quitting the smoking habit during
a weekend. The first few days are the roughest and there are too many temptations at work, not to mention stress.

carpets, and any fabric. This fabric cleaning will take the smell of cigarette smoke away, leaving you with no
smell to tempt you or remind you of your habit. The first few weeks after you quit, the smell of cigarette smoke
may smell really good to you but after the first weeks past the smell will start to smell really weird to you and
over time the smell will start to disgust you. Make your home and your vehicle a no-smoking zone. This will
discourage guests from lighting up in front of you. Ask your boss to make your office into a no-smoking zone if
possible, unless you are working in a smoke free work environment already. Avoid your old favorite smoking spots.

possibly help you by not lighting up in front of you. If you normally drink alcoholic beverages, it is a good idea

encouragement. Talk with your healthcare provider regarding your desire to quit for possible support and
information, including community support groups, and available aids for quitting like the patch and gum. Especially

few weeks. Time with nothing to do is your worst enemy when you are trying to quit. There are a lot of places where

support can be found. Dont turn away help in your bid to be free of the nicotine habit.
