Stop Smoking Without Getting Fat – Part II

Let’s explore the ways we can stop ourselves from overeating. This phenomenon is experienced every time you are nervous. You just feel the need to chew something. Back when you were still smoking, it was easy. But now you eat all kinds of junk food as a replacement.You don’t even feel the taste of the food, but you keep eating.

The solution is simple – start eating 4-5 times a day. Of course, make the meals smaller. Otherwise your calorie intake goes through the roof. If you make this a habit, you will never feel hungry throughout the day, and you will boost your metabolism as well.

Another smart trick is to drink water every time you feel you need a smoke. This will not only distract your mind and make it think of something different than a smoke. It will also clear your body from waste products, and will also boost your metabolism.

It is wise to avoid places with smoke, because you might not be able to resist the temptation. Especially if you are just learning how not to smoke, it will be hard for you to avoid falling into the trap again. And you will also give your body more nicotine.

Maybe it all sounds like too much stress. Well, it just seems that way. In reality, you will feel a lot less stressed out once you quit smoking. Yeah, there are many rules, but they are all just common sense, aren’t they? There is nothing extreme, that will need you to change your lifestyle. You just have to be aware of what happens around you.

One last piece of advice – the best way to quit smoking permanently is to feel happy about it. If you think it is not worth it, it will be only temporary. Instead of feeling sorry that you can’t have a smoke, focus on the benefits.

And they are numerous – no more yellow teeth, no more stinky breath and clothes, more money to spend on other things and of course – better health. That sounds good, doesn’t it? Then just do it. After a few months you will look back to this moment. And then you will be happy that you had the willpower to quit smoking once and for all.
