I-m gonna guess that they don-t allow smoking at the camp, so if you don-t pack any, you should have a great head start...you could also consider getting nicotine gum or the patch...but it sounds like you-re almost there, so I would suggest doing things that will keep your mouth otherwise occupied...chewing gum and losenges are a good way to keep that habit of popping something into your mouth fulfilled without a cigarette. Sounds like you-re so close to being a non-smoker, the time at camp without cigarettes may seal the deal for you and get you to not reach for a ciggy again...but plan to be not smoking and don-t bring any with you...also determine when the urge is the greatest...after meals, with your morning coffee...whatever, and plan for that time of day so you are ready for the craving when it hits...do something healthy at that time...chew gum while you walk...take a bike ride...call a friend and complain about the craving...whatever it takes.
Great post! I totally understand how you feel. I-m also trying to lose weight and I found this great product which is working for me. You can check the website at

You are smoking half a ciggie a day and you-re concerned? Why? Believe it or not, you can smoke up to 4 ciggies a day and not have any detrimental side effects at all! Ok, so you really need to quit, then stay away from caffien, (that means soft drinks and chocolate too), alcohol, and situations where you would normally smoke. Like, if you normally smoke right after doing the dishes, then as soon as you are done the dishes, go for a walk. The trick is to change your thoughts as soon as you think of a smoke. So if you suddenly start thinking of having a smoke, make yourself think about that really cute person in math class, or something like that. good luck.
ok well do it slowly
liek lets say u smoke 5 a day..
every week cut back on one or two.
its all about how badly u want to quit.
get the patches stuff and slowly stop smoking..
and no matteer how bad u want one
DONT!
hide them
have some one tak eur car for like 5 days so u dont go out and buy any.
in one or two weeks if u stop all together. u should be over them.
find other things to occupy u.
its that quitting time thats the hardest. but once ur over it. then ur fine
well dont take any smokes obvioulsy cuz you will get tempted. i think take a lot of gum and just chew your head off. also when you start feeling anxious stop and think of what you are doing. you can control your own body. try to take deep breaths and say your bigger than that and then pop a gum in your mouth. preferably trident you can take care of your teeth while your at it.
