I failed quitting smoking every time I set a specific date. It barely ever lasted more than a day. The one time I finally just decided "I'm never smoking a cigarette again" it stuck. Of course this took a couple months of nicotine gum, nicotine lollipops (those were nice before they were outlawed) and nicotine patches, then another solid month of tapering off.If you're going to start a diet you shouldn't put it off. Saying "I'll start my diet AFTER I've had one last unhealthy meal" means you'll always be drawn to quit. It's something I've fallen into myself. And to make matters worse he's chosen to eat the worst, most processed slop he could possibly eat. Never change, Jack.
It was so vile and unpleasant I'm horrified by the very idea of smoking tobacco again because it would mean having to quit it again.
That said, that's really what you have to do to quit doing something. Just don't do it any more. It sounds simple, but it's the only way. If you "can't," what that really means is you won't.
