Living with a smoker
My
wife is a smoker and she and others in her age group keep trying to quit
smoking. So, I totally understand how hard it can be to quit smoking,
especially if you’ve been smoking for a long time. There is a quit-smoking
action plan that has worked for countless people just like you, and I’m excited
to share it with you.
First,
let’s start with setting a quit date. This is an important step because it
helps you prepare your mind and body for the big day. It’s like marking a
milestone on your journey towards a smoke-free life. Take your time to pick a
date that feels right for you, maybe about three weeks from now. This gives you
a chance to prepare in the best possible way.
Next,
it’s important to get your body ready for the effects of quitting. You can do
this by starting a regimen of multivitamins and herbal supplements to boost
your immune system, and by changing your Diet to include more fruits and
veggies. This will help flush out the toxins from your system and make it
easier to quit.
The
third step is to join a support group for people trying to quit smoking. This
will give you a chance to bond with others who are going through the same
thing, and it will give you a stronger foundation for your quit date.
Finally,
when your quit date arrives, make sure to remove all tobacco products and
paraphernalia from your home the night before. Start each day with a tall glass
of orange or grapefruit juice, and drink plenty of water to flush out the
toxins and nicotine from your system. Drinking orange juice has even been shown
to reduce nicotine cravings by more than 50%!
Remember,
quitting smoking is a journey, and it’s okay to take it one day at a time.
Don’t be too hard on yourself if you slip up – just get back on track and keep
moving forward. You got this!
