This isn't just about weight loss, it's about being healthy and overcoming even sickness and/or depression, heck even addictions can be cured with this way of life. I owe my changes to my successfulness of quiting smoking. I have been smoke free for about 2 years!!! Hooray!!! I am so very proud of myself, and for those of you who have or are trying to kick this you know how exiting that truly is!! I guite smoking after doing it for almost 15 years, and for trying to quite for a total of 10 years. That is right I figured out one day that I had been trying to quite for about 10 years. I would quite for about 2-3 months and then start again, just could not stay clear. Even after being pregnant for 9 months with out smoking and then going back to it after that. The main trigger was seeing my father ( a smoker for over 50 years, started when he was in the Korean war) unconcious and in a ER bed, with a man standing over him with a "breathing bag" litterally breathing for him. This was about 4 years ago. This was the start of the final stages of his battle with major emphazima, COPD and diabetes, kidney failure and heart disease. He battled this for about 3 more years, and I watched him die in his home in June of 2009. My point is this is the initial seed that told me, I don't not want to suffer this way, I do not want to have my girls have to watch me go through this!!... Period. It will not happen... so thus brings me to this point!!
Let me tell you if your trying to quite, you need to take a look at your diet. Its those toxins in your body that is making you continue to want those cigarettes. it has nothing to do with will power. Oh yes you have to want to quite but your body is addicted to it cause of the other crap that is in all of the foods your eating. (Let me tell ya I used to love it, It relaxed me, it was social, even just the thought of a long drive with a full pak of cigs would a great thought for me. Yikes..). You need to switch it up, and get it out man. All the processed, hidden sugars, chemicals and pesticides in your food is keeping a person from being able to quite successfully.( I don't want to get into how its a conspiracy cause you will think I am crazy, but maybe you will hear that later in my blog as I get my facts straighter.) I will testify this to the end. If I was still eating over all regular food from the regular stores, I would still be smoking too. Just a side note the hardest thing for me to conquer was going out with my best friends, ( all smokers by the way) and being able to have some drinks and not want to light up by the end of the evening. note if you need to stop socializing for a while to get a hold on this, then do it. Stop Smoking, it will kill you, and it won't be pretty!! I still have the vision of my big strong father( who was always 250-260 lbs, over 6 feet tall,)lying in a bed pale as a ghost, weak, eyes sunk in, gasping for air, then loosing the battle and seeing a the body bag zipped up over his head. Please do not make your children watch that!! You must change it. If you don't smoke then tell someone who does to read this.
