QUIT FOR CHICKS - INTRODUCTION
There's nothing worse than when someone tells you what to do, right? It's human nature to run in the opposite direction and do whatever it is that you've been told not to do, twice as much as you did before.
So, even though this little book is dedicated to helping you kick the smoking habit, we aren't going to shove facts and figures down your throat and tell you that if you don't give up today that YOU ARE GOING TO DIE!
Instead, we'll help you look at the reasons why you smoke and why you might choose to quit when you are ready. There are tips and ideas from our medical expert, Dr Cindy Pan, and a team of seven women who have successfully kicked the habit in their own way, for their own reasons (plus one brave soul who is still trying).
You'll read about success stories from every type of woman - from supermodel, to nurse, witch and full-time mother. The winning common denominator for them was that it was their decision to give up and they were ready to do it.
This book is dedicated to the particular issues that women face when quitting smoking. Be honest, is the reason that you haven't given up that you're secretly afraid of putting on weight? Do you promise yourself in bed late at night that you'll finally quit when you are ready to have children?
We deal with these particularly feminine issues and provide you with easily accessible information to support and help you in your quest. Believe it or not, giving up can also have positive repercussions in unexpected areas of your life like dating and your career, not to mention the positive effects it can have on your finances, health and skin.
Take what you are ready for from each section. Be open to information and advice that you can use in your own life and that will support you in your efforts. Refer back to the book during your giving up process and keep it to remind you of what you've achieved when you're successful. (you can even keep it in your handbag and read it when temptation arises).
Remember, you control your destiny and you do have the power to change your life. Good luck!
