Give and get more hugs. Keep a pack of sugarless gum, sugarless breath mints or hard candy with you at all times. Eat only one piece of candy or gum at a time, and try to make each piece last as long as possible. Sucking and chewing will give your mouth a replacement for your tobacco use. Brush your teeth often.
People tend to crave tobacco less when they have a clean mouth.
Reward yourself for each week you successfully reduce your tobacco use, and stick with your fitness and eating plans. Tell yourself every day that you are getting stronger and healthier each day.
