alan carr easyway to stop smoking

[bin59]

Hi LVLLT,

Well done that is fantastic, I know it is a struggle but well done you for not giving in. I still fancy a ciggie sometimes after nearly 6 years, but I know if I have 1 that will be it back to 20 a day. Still love the smell of a freshly lit ciggie!!
Well done with the weight loss too wish I could lose mine
Take care xx

Wow so glad you succeeded well done! xx

I can’t recommend the Allen Carr method enough. I packed in a 40 a day habit about 5 years ago and it really was as easy as the book claims. The basic concept is simple – smokers smoke for no other reason than they are addicted to nicotine. There are no benefits or pleasures to be had from smoking other than the relief of nicotine withdrawal and the book’s aim is to prove this to the reader beyond all doubt. Once you understand and accept this fact then it really is simple and pain free to stop.

I actually read Allen Carr’s ONLY way to stop smoking which is a longer version of Easyway and goes into a bit more detail but the basic concept is the same.

NRT is an expensive scam; a second hand copy of this book will cost you a couple of quid and even if you don’t stop smoking at least you’ll understand why you do – which is fascinating.

RIP Allen Carr.

I did...and went on a seminar to reinforce it...and it worked...nearly 2 years smoke free now and although I sometimes "think" I might like a ciggie...I know that I don't really!

I finished this book about an hour ago and I'm feeling positive! (I know it's not been long but do feel like this is it!) I love the way he makes you see it for what it really is. I'll update on my progress as time passes x

I totally agree with the above. I too quit a 15 year 20+ a day smoking addiction with the help of his books, nothing else. My partner did too; this was 3.5 years ago and we've never looked back.

We would have spent £15,000 to £20,000 on cigarettes from then till now- SHOCKING!!

'Cold turkey' is the ONLY WAY!!

Thanks! Today's been the second full day without a cigarette! It's gone quite well so far, not really struggled, just had a few moments of thinking I wanted one, nothing bad though.

Although about 10 mins ago thought I missed it and wanted one, Allen warned me about this though so I'm ok! Lol I just keep trying to remind myself why I've stopped! X
