Another day behind me. Thanks again Guys.
Trying To Quit Smoking "Cold Turkey"
- Thread starter FatJack
- Start date
I saw this thing the other day on TV about visualization and controlling dietary cravings. They did a blind test where people looked at a bowl or plate of their favorite junk food and visualized the smell and texture and feel of eating it bite by bite over the course of 5 minutes. Then the scientist told each subject they could then eat as much as they wanted from the plate in front of them. They all ate 40% less than the control group that didn't do visualization beforehand. I know that visualization can be powerful from when I've applied it in sports practice applications.
Not sure if it would apply for smoking too, but it might be worth a shot and it's free to try.

Smoking for me was a way to kill boredom if I had nothing better to do I would sit in my Garage and kill a whole pack (or somtimes 2) in a matter of hours so if you can find a new way to kill time and stay busy it will help with the mental addiction, I bought a Dodge Charger.

Good for you! I quit smoking 10 years ago.I still get the urge to have a quick puff once in a while but it passes quickly.The hardest thing for me was the after a meal smoke and the with a beer smoke.The best part about not smoking is all the extra $$$$$ for Mopar parts
