Why You Should Never Quit Quitting
|
|
|
---|---|---|
Nicotine addiction adds up to a substantial yearly expense even before health and wellbeing costs are factored in. Do the math on cost alone. Maybe you can save enough in a year to go on a nice vacation instead? |
Did you know that smoking isn't just hard on your lungs? After 12 hours of not smoking the carbon monoxide level in your blood drops to normal, and after just 1 year of not smoking your risk of Coronary Heart Disease is about half that of a smoker's. (source: MedlinePlus) |
Between the obvious money saving and health benefits alone, it's worth it to quit using nicotine. Did you know that you can also experience improved sense of smell and taste, better night vision, clearer skin and lower cholesterol? Start living your best life, nicotine free. (source: MedlinePlus) |
Some considerations to increase your odds of success in quitting.

|
---|---|---|
Make sure you choose the right tool for the job. A general guideline is: If you smoke your first cigarette within 30 minutes of waking up, choose a 4 mg product. If you smoke your first cigarette after 30 minutes of waking up, choose a 2 mg product. Only use as directed. |
Using NRT products as directed while participating in a support program can double your chance to successfully quit smoking.* Surround yourself with people who want to see you succeed. You are not alone in this. *Many people require several quit attempts to stop smoking. |
Smoking isn't just an addiction, it's a habit as well. If you smoke in regular places, avoid those places for a while if possible. If you enjoy a cigarette with a beer, abstain from alcohol until you aren't as tempted. Breaking habits can be as simple as changing up your normal routine from time to time. (source: MedlinePlus) |

I have tried over and over again over the years to quit smoking--tried everything. My problem is that I am so allergic to so many things that I could not tolerate some of the smoking aids out there to help me to quit. I am allergic to adhesive so I could not use the patches, had dentures so I could not chew the gum, went to smoking clinics and tried the new drug, CHANTIX, but has such severe side effects that I could not tolerate it. And every time I tried quitting I would gain at least 10 lbs.--and never could loose those pounds after going back to smoking. I was a big fat mess by the time I bought these "Good Sense Nicotine Lozenges". Now I have tried other nicotine lozenges before but they were so expensive that I could not afford to keep buying them. These Good Sense Nicotine Lozenges are just as good as the ones you buy in stores and is at half the price. The longest I have ever been able to quit smoking was almost 2 weeks before I caved in and went back to smoking. When you have smoked as long as I have, it is almost ingrained into your brain--that is one of the things that a councilor told me at the smoking clinic.
I started these lozenges on July 14 and it is now August 6--not quite a month but the longest I have ever been able to go without smoking. Now I am not going to tell you that the urge has gone away because it hasn't, but whenever I get the urge I pop one of these lozenges between my gum and my cheek and within a few minutes I feel calmer. According to everything I have read these lozenges are suppose to dissolve in about 30 minutes but it takes a long longer than that for me--for at least 4 hours! Now people have complained that if these lozenges have 4mg. of nicotine, that you are still getting the same amount of nicotine as you would in a cigarettes. But the way I figure it, when I was smoking at least 4 cigarettes (chain smoker) per hour, which would have been 16mg. of nicotine, then 4mg. of these lozenges in 4 hours is a lot less than a cigarette--one mg. per hour (lozenges ) vs. 16mg (cigarette) per hour.
After I had ordered my first pack of these lozenges & saw how well that they were helping me, I then started the "ship and save" subscription so that I would not run out while trying to quit. I received my first shipment this month (quantity of 2 packs) but then after I received the first shipment I went back and changed my subscription to start getting the 2mg packs instead of the 4mg. My plan is to slowly wean myself off the lozenges as I quit smoking. I don't know how long this is going to take but no matter how long it takes, it will be better than to continue smoking. For now I am very happy with this product. This is my last hope. I will update this review when I have finally quit smoking for good and weaned myself off these lozenges.
