I've tried to quit about 8 times over the last two years with every single method you can think of! I've never gone longer than 2 weeks! And I've always gained at least half a stone. But I recently read Allen Carr, and started exercising more. If you already work out, you'll be amazed at the difference in your fitness so much that you wont want to ruin it. and if you don't work out, the exercise will give you such a buzz and you'll feel so healthy that you wont want to ruin it by eating rubbish! Not sure if it's the book, or the gym,but I'm just passed my second month and I'm loaded!!! Good luck!

Smoking is bad, be it one, four or a whole packet a day. I suggest you try out some soul searching by beginning to ask why are you smoking in the first place, what sensation you are chasing every time you pick up a cigarette. Smoking is an addiction so in order to quit you have to tackle the problem in the same way any addict has to do, be it drugs or alcohol. If you want to look deep and beyond, read about vipassana meditation and Ayurveda and the mind. If you are ready for it, you will get the results you are looking for. Bear in mind that there are no easy solutions. However when you win, you will have won more than just a ticket back to good health, but also a ticket to get to know yourself better. This is worth more than all the tea in China. Good luck in your endeavours

Patches can help with the worst of the symptoms; but its all down to willpower. If you don't want to gain weight then snack on fruit.
It's probably better to put on a bit of weight than keep smoking. At least you can lose it afterwards.Maybe that's just your excuse for NOT stopping!
Good luck.

Keep small pieces of bannana in a container and keep on eating one piece every half an hour and you will start disliking the tobacco smell.

Ask your doctor to prescribe Champix (varenicline) it`s a new drug, I stopped by using it, removes craving and makes fags taste repulsive and sickening.
