Â We all know of vegetarians who have several so called vices, live on junk food and are quite overweight. Â I still smoke (hiss, boo), drink sparingly, if at all, but my diet is a healthy one. Â My weight has been stable for many years and my numbers are good. Â It is funny how many times I've had someone say, you ate a candy bar aren't you a vegetarian, you can't have a drink you're a vegetarian, when I smoked I would hear that too.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 I've read about your experiences quitting and how difficult it was for you. Â I work in an alcohol/drug rehab and many staff who are in recovery have said that quitting smoking was the hardest thing they ever did...worse than giving up any other addiction. Â Believe it or not, the psychological factor would be harder for me than the actual nicotine craving. Â I can't smoke anywhwere at work (have to leave the property) and have gone an entire day without smoking without going bonkers. Â Anyone who smokes knows it's all about...the cigarette when you pick up the phone, sit down at the computer, after a meal, with a cup of coffee, when you get in the car, etc. Â When my mom was 70 she decided that was it, she put down her cigarettes and never picked one up again. Â As you said, when you're ready, and only then, will it work. One day on your own terms you will quit smoking. You aren't ready yet. It is a terrible habit to kick.
