Eating definitely helps!!
A lot of people just drink without eating food, but it actually really helps you not to smoke if you keep munching while you drink.
For me veggie platter is the best bar food to stay away from smoking while I drink.

Yeah, that’s one of the biggest reasons teens start smoking. Also of course why tobacco companies target teens. Most adults who don’t smoke by 20 years old will never pick the habit up.

Good for you on at least trying to quit. I’ve heard and seen much better results with the patch than the gum. My advice on the drinking thing is…just avoid it for the first few weeks if possible. If you do drink, try to drink somewhere without smokers around and keep eating.

I tried nicorette (gum) and Nicoderm (patch) before. Chewing gum for me was like temporary thing, meaning it didn’t work that well. I found that Nicoderm was pretty helpful to get rid the of habit of putting a cigarette in my mouth. I guess that’s how you start.
I failed though.
I’m still trying to quit but I tend to smoke when I drink since I enjoy drinking so much. That’s actually my next challenge. How can I stop myself from craving cigarettes while I drink?
Maybe I should stay away from drinking for a while, but I honestly don’t see it coming.
