Quitting smoking is not easy, but millions of people have done it, and you can too!
You may smoke during certain activities, such as drinking coffee, driving, eating, working, studying, watching TV, drinking alcohol, or taking breaks.
This explains the cravings and withdrawal symptoms when you stop smoking (the first 3 days are the worst).
Most people try to quit 5-7 times before they are successful.
To handle cravings: call a friend, eat a healthy snack, take a walk or a bath, brush your teeth, chew gum, keep your hands busy--- write a letter, email etc. Weight gain may occur when you try to quit smoking if you eat instead of smoke.

The fellow who was instrumental in my coming to Jesus had also been a rabid non smoker.
Before coming to Jesus, he had simply decided to quit smoking one day and that was it.
About two month's later I was on a construction job at the Tahsis pulp mill in Gold River, BC.
I had a carton of cigarettes on the desk in front of me with one pack out.
And I've seen others quit as easily since.
No one else that I know of has heard the audible voice of God like I did, but, they have been able to quit knowing that God was there to help with the cravings.

Using medical data on life shortening effects of smoking, the results indicate fairly reasonable values put on a lost life year, compared to existing estimates based on other methods.
where si is a discount factor to adjust for the fact that the health effects, in terms of lost days of life, occur later than the money spent to avoid the risk.
s then reflects how much the WTP should have been multiplied by if the health effects would have occurred at the same time as the money was spent.
