Obama Quits!
Smoking. And many kudos to him and all who kept him on track to quit.
President Obama Quit Smoking
You can see by this blog that I think quitting is a good thing. Especially smoking! There is no other activity that is more wasteful of human lives.
I quit more than seven years ago after many years of smoking. Gangrene will do that to ya: force you into quitting. There is no pain med. to take away the pain of the death of your tissue that is clinging to your live tissue.
Whatever works for you to quit, do it! At every craving I either sucked on a Tootsie Roll Pop or ate a Hershey's Kiss. Can you say "orally fixated'?
After one month my mouth was sore and I was free from cigs. Plus I had a bunch of extra money from not buying 4 cartons of cigs, too.
"But I don't wanna get faaaaat!" Quit any way you can and deal with any fat later. As Rosie always sez: 'Fat is temporary, emphysema is permanent!"
Ok? Tons of people try to quit on New Year's. So give it a shot. Craves only last for FIVE MINUTES at the most. You can get thru five minutes of anything except holding your breath; cigs will take your breath forever.
The percentage of American smokers has gone down every year. Millions before you have quit and millions after you will, too. So you can. You eventually wil, even if you have to die to quit -- do it voluntarily now.
I believe in you, quitting is GOOD -- you CAN do it!!
Love,
Rosie
