    National No Smoking Day

    TOP TIPS FOR QUITTING


    Seven out of ten smokers say they want to give up. If you’re determined to stop in 2005, here’s what you can do to give yourself the best possible start:


    • Name a quit date – why not try National No Smoking Day on Wednesday 9th March.

    • Get some Nicotine Replacement Therapy such as patches or gum - it can double your chance of stopping. Talk to your GP or pharmacist.

    • Write down all the reasons you want to stop and tape them to the fridge to help you stay motivated.

    • Enlist the support of friends, family and workmates – why not quit together and help keep each other on track?

    • Avoid smoky bars and restaurants for a few days; they can undermine your willpower.

    • Practise saying, "No thanks, I don't smoke."



    So any one trying to quit today? Do you smoke?

    I wasn't really a proper smoker, I just used to smoke at weekends but still found it really hard to quit, especially in the first month.

    You'd never be able to quit in your house, you'd be constantly smelling the fumes coming from Bellas room:lol:
