You need to be in the right mood to quit smoking.
If you don't REALLY want to quit, there's no way you're gonna succeed.
The thing is that you need to find every single reason that you WANT to smoke and prove them wrong.
By doing this, after a while nicotine will be 100% negative for you.
Read all you can on
WhyQuit - the Internet's leading cold turkey quit smoking resource .
Then when you feel that you're ready for it, go ahead and quit.
I also recommend Allen Carr's 'The easy way to stop smoking' if you want to spend your money on it.
Remember that when you're feeling odd or bad it's not because your body wants a cigarette but because your body is healing itself.
There is NO "one single puff". One puff is likely to throw you back into being a full-time smoker.
You're a nicotine-addict. So am I.
After the last cigarette:
After 20 minutes, your heartbeat falls to normal.
During the initial 72 hours your body is going to remove the nicotine left in your body.
(on the 4th day, you're "nicotine-free")
After 7-10 days, your body will have learned to adjust your bloodsugar etc. by itself.
This is the reason that you might feel odd every now and then. Your body needs to learn being normal again.
Nicotine makes your body release bloodsugar almost instantly. When eating, bloodsugar is released 20 mins AFTER the 1st bite
After only a couple of days after quitting, you will start noticing the benefits of quitting.
After approx. 2-3 months your body will feel "boosted". You will have much more stamina that you had as a smoker.
