Special Concerns When You Give Up Cigarette Smoking

Weight Gain
Many smokers do gain some weight when they quit. Even without special attempts at diet and exercise, however, the gain is usually less than 10 pounds. Women tend to gain slightly more weight than men. There is some evidence that smokers will gain weight after they quit even if they do not eat more.
For some, a concern about weight gain can lead to a decision not to quit. But the weight gain that follows quitting smoking is generally very small. It is much more dangerous to continue smoking than it is to gain a small amount of weight.
You are more likely to be successful with quitting smoking if you deal with the smoking first, and then later take steps to reduce your weight. While you are quitting, try to focus on ways to help you stay healthy, rather than on your weight. Stressing about your weight may make it harder to quit. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables and limit the fat. Be sure to drink plenty of water, and get enough sleep and regular physical activity.
Walking is a great way to be physically active and increase your chances of staying quit. Walking can help you by:
·
reducing stress
·
burning calories and toning muscles
·
giving you something to do instead of thinking about smoking  
No special equipment or clothing is needed for walking, other than a pair of comfortable shoes. And you can do it pretty much anytime or anywhere. Try the following:
·
walking around a shopping mall
·
getting off the bus one stop before you usually do
finding a buddy to walk with during lunch time at work

·
taking the stairs instead of the elevator
·
walking with a friend, family member, or neighbor after dinner
·
pushing your baby in a stroller
Set a goal of 30 minutes of physical activity 5 or more times a week. If you don’t already exercise regularly, please check with your doctor before starting an exercise program.
Stress
Smokers often mention stress as one of the reasons for going back to smoking. Stress is a part of all of our lives, smokers and nonsmokers alike. The difference is that smokers have come to use nicotine to help cope with stress. When quitting, you have to learn new ways of handling stress. Nicotine replacement can help to some extent, but for long-term success other strategies are needed.
As mentioned above, physical activity is a good stress-reducer. It can also help with the temporary sense of depression that some smokers experience when they quit. There are also stress-management classes and self-help books. Check your community newspaper, library, or bookstore.
Spiritual practices such as prayer and meditation have been used very successfully with other addictions and are an integral part of 12-step recovery programs. These same principles can be applied to quitting smoking and can help with stress reduction.
Zyban is a prescription only medication clinically proven to decrease cravings for nicotine and help individuals give up cigarettes by decreasing nicotine cravings, cigarette withdrawal symptoms and the desire to smoke. Zyban works at the neurological level, reducing cravings for nicotine, and has helped many smokers to quit cigarettes for good, even those who have smoked heavily for may years. Zyban can be used alone or together with nicotine replacement treatments. The usual dosage is one or two 150 mg tablets per day.
