I have been a smoker for about 5 years and it has been a constant shame-filled, stressful habit that I just can't shake since that very first day. I started just smoking as a way to pass the time with my other smoker friends during breaks at work, but all too soon I was smoking at home after work for a relaxing moment or two and then it was every hour without fail. I've tried to quit smoking a number of times and every time I could never get it to stick, but this time I am determined to make it work because after a health scare it's become vital that I quit or face serious consequences down the road. So with that in mind I went looking for some words of wisdom to help me finally quit smoking and I came across "New Year's Resolution - Quit Smoking!" The book turned out to be a smart and extremely helpful guide to quitting smoking that ave me a wealth of insight about the process of quitting, tips on how to ensure success, aids in lowering the pesky cravings that have stalled my efforts in the past and so much more.Author Barbara Carey has a talent for writing, taking what could be a semi-boring and painstakingly tedious subject and turning it into a casual but informative glimpse into her struggles to quit and her triumphs that she wishes to share with other smokers. The book outlines every step of the quitting process from the first choice to quit (and why it's important) to the tools to help make it happen and everything in between. This is a comprehensive guide to quitting your smoking addiction in a successful and healthy way. Overall, I found the book to be highly successful at taking the subject of quitting smoking and turning it into a step-by-step guide to succeed... one step at a time.
