Enjoy seeing this webpages!



Make a date
First, circle your giving up date on a calendar. Second, draw up an action plan. Then decide what methods you feel will work for you and look into them before your quit date.

In the bin
Get rid of all your smoking accessories. Throw out all your ashtrays, lighters, half-finished packs, tobacco

Be inspired
Whether people have given up for one day, two weeks or a year, their success stories are sure to give you encouragement.

Drink up
Try to drink between six and eight glasses of water a day. If you want to make it more interesting, try a few different flavours of a sugar-free drink.

Spotting triggers
Everyone has their reason to smoke. Get some tips on recognising what they might be and taking steps to ignore them.

Don't be alone

Change your routine
Stop going to the shop where you bought your cigarettes. It's probably a good idea to avoid places where you would normally smoke. Try doing something totally different.

Treat yourself
This is really important. If you can, put aside the money you save by not smoking to buy something special. It can be big or small - just something you wouldn't have normally.

One day at a time
Every day without cigarettes is good for you, your heart, your health and your family and friends. But, if you do lapse, learn from the experience. You didn't fail, you just need more time to succeed!
