Studies have indicated that women start smoking for reasons such as a benefit for
weight control. Smoking does help with weight control, but not as much as many
believe it would. Sadly, most women is more afraid to deal with the few extra pounds
compared to the increase risk of probability of a cancer.
Another reason why women smoke is due to their emotional bond with their peers. If
their friend smokes, they will smoke too because they will feel that they can
understand their friend's issue. Research has shown female colleagues smoke together
as a way of keeping their bond together.
So when a woman decides to quit, she will normally feel isolated or more distant
than the former friends and colleagues. This prevents women from quitting as well.
Here are some steps and measures to increase the chances for women to quit smoking:
Combating Weight Fears
1) Increase the frequency of exercise. You can push yourself harder during your
normal workout hours. Get involved with sports and encourage your lady friends to be
involved as well.
2) Walk up escalators instead of waiting and riding it up. Walk of stairs instead of
using lifts.
3) Reduce the amount of unnecessary food. Women tend to have cravings for junk food
or such as chocolate and others that can be a cause of weight gain.
4) Drink more water daily.
Empathizing And Encouraging Friends
Other than smoking together with your friends, there are other methods to help your
friend such as:
1) Be available to talk to your friend on the phone.
2) Assure them you will give them your support
3) Help them find other sources of support and help.
Timing To Quit
When you decided to quit smoking, do not quit during the time when you are at your
peak physically, mentally and emotionally. Do not quit during when you about to
enter your cycle. Quitting smoking after your menstrual cycle is a good timing as
you will feel good at that time.
