Do You Really Want To Stop Smoking? Or Do You Use The Weight
I do not smoke, never have, and admit to being one of those
'pain in the butts' (OK, bad pun!) that go on about the foul
stench, and anti-social behaviour of smokers, especially in
public places.
You can imagine my joy when one of my local pubs recently banned
smoking. Shortly after the ban had come into force I spotted a
guy poised with cigarette in hand, and was about to get huffy
and even confrontational. Fortunately I held back and continued
my beer - but was puzzled. The cigarette was unlit and yet he
was putting it near his mouth, flicking the imaginary ash and
generally acting as if he was smoking it. Curious about this I
eventually enquired, only to find out this was his own rather
unorthodox approach to keeping his hands busy and therefore, as
he put it, keeping his weight down.

Although everyone knows that smoking is detrimental to health,
it's surprising how many smokers cite fear of putting on weight
as a reason to not quit smoking.
The simple fact is that it is not quitting smoking that affects
your weight, but the change of habit can result in you
increasing your food intake.
But there are plenty of ways to ensure this does not happen to
you.
There is no need for a special diet when you stop smoking, but
you must use your common sense. If you eat chocolates instead of
smoking then you are very likely to gain weight!
Monitor your diet for a fortnight before you stop smoking -
write a food diary, noting everything you eat and when. You
simply use this to make sure that what you eat post-quitting
follows a similar pattern.
In a similar way, note how much exercise you can do as a smoker.
When you stop smoking, you can begin to compare how much more
exercise you can do with ease. This will inspire you to the
possibility of becoming fitter in other ways, and will actually
help you through the tough period of giving up the addiction.
Even moderate amounts of exercise can reduce tobacco cravings. A
recent study found that women that maintained a rigorous
exercise regime coupled with a stop-smoking programme were twice
as likely to succeed as those who didn't. Frankly, exercising is
incompatible with smoking, and you are also more likely to be
mixing with non-smokers.

Let's face it, if you smoke 20 cigarettes daily, you are putting
your hand to your mouth at least 200 times a day. When you quit,
you need to keep your hands busy. How about peeling fruit for
snacks, doing jigsaws or maybe even knitting.
Keep visualising yourself as a fit non-smoker, especially when
your motivation starts to flag. You can always get help with
this through the use of hypnotherapy. As in so many behavioural
issues, it is simply a matter of re-programming our mind. Giving
up smoking is tough, and self-hypnosis is a method that many are
discovering as a simple way to help keep the mental attitude and
motivation on course.
Like the chap in the pub, you may find your own method of coping
with your quit smoking challenge, and well.. if it works - great!
Good health!
