How to Smoke Less
Quiting is hard. Improve your chances of quiting by using these tips
to cut back on your nicotene intake first.
1. Don't Smoke in the House or Car
It's a baby-step. Really. You can smoke anytime you want, you just have
to go outside to do it. This will cut your smoking habit down, and also
make your nose more sensitive to the smell of smoke since you will no
longer be "living" in it.
2. Smoke and Green Tea?
If you are like me and lots of other smokers, coffee and a smoke are a
match made in heaven. Cut back on your coffee intake and substitute it
with something that doesn't taste so good with tar. Like green tea, water,
orange juice etc...
3. Keep a Supply of Gum
Oral fixated? Curb your need for a smoke with a peice of gum everyonce
and a while.
4. Move your Smokes and Ashtrays
Don't keep your cigs, ashtrays and lighters in a convienent place (like
right next to you at all times). Instead keep your pack in the kitchen,
ashtray outside (your suppose to be smoking outside, right?) and your
lighter in another room. This makes smoking an effort and eliminates lighting
up out of convienence.
