It was a lot of peer pressure that destroyed my latest attempt at quitting smoking besides the food issue, as when we went out to the pub, all my friends are smokers, so conversations started inside continue outside and to be part of the discussion guess what one has to do just to get tortured by smokers, as at home no smoke at pubs - smoke, i remember it was like every pub trip, twice a week it was back to square one in the desire to get away from it.
The food issue, well we all know food is expensive and myself being unemployed even more so and as a a smoker one's food bill is low, stop smoking the sudden desire to get fit comes upon one and so more food is needed and that for provided prohibitive, now I am smoking again and I eat every other day. Recently my doctor had me tested for malnutrition as if we could have that in our country, but we can, food is too expensive, but anyway I got prescribed 'build up' packs which are great because I drink a hell of a lot of milk, but it does not solve the problem that food is too expensive so many who smoke I know do so in order to eat less, this is very common with the unemployed.
But given the fact that the government are saying how toxic smoking is i would wish them to put their money where their mouth is and if it is bad ban it as to continue to allow smoking they are failing in their primary duty to protect the public and if not shut the f up and stop alienating people.
