What's new

Smoking dips 10% in 2 years in India but women smokers up sharply

I had a franchisee owner from Karnataka, He was the worst i have ever come across...... ITC supply cigarettes directly to his house.... ( i mean the distributor) Our man used to smoke 120 a day.... when ever we used to visit the market, our man carries a bag of cigarettes, where as i used to have my half packet kings :P

Initially it was tough when you see some one enjoys a puff...... Thats when you feel like..........

120 is way too much.

I had 3 packs once when i was in ME.

but that day even i felt i had too many

:D

I am a caffaine addict, have to drink a strong cup of coffee between work.... coffee does something to my brain, just lightens it up....

I started reading a lot and since it was the begning of the winter vacation, i kept my interaction with ppl very limited.

Didnt go out of my house for almost 2 weeks.

By the third week i was able to control my craving even if i see someone with a cigarette.

Felt good about myself.

Suddenly my appetite was higher than what it was before.

Pimples were all gone .

That too gave me a lot of motivation.

Started hitting gym after 2nd month.

Have put on almost 25 kgs since last year.

:D
Ah that's good let hope I get something to substitute for it as well

Actual fall in smoking may be much lesser than the figures given here. the rural bidi figures are not reflected here. Swami ramdev etc influential sadhus and other social reformers have done an excellent job. The bidi smoking in rural area has reduced dramatically. The new generation hardly smoke. One of my friend has a bidi factory in rajasthan. he told me that his Bidi production reduced 80% in last 15 years. It is just 20% of what they used to produce and sold 15 years back. i.e from a production of 15 lakh bidis to 3 lakh bidis.

This is a very good news from economy point of view also. Now people shall have more disposable income as this huge cigarette expenses shall be saved. money is getting diverted to some good end .
