It's the beginning of the new year and time to start honoring those New Year's resolutions that were made!

Some New Year's resolutions are made after thoughtful consideration of one's lifestyle and health issues. Others are made as people are caught up in the moment of revelry during New Year's Eve celebrations.

One of the most popular and most difficult to maintain New Year's resolutions is to quit smoking. For those of you who have undertaken this seemingly monumental task, you will NOT regret it if you stick with it and kick the smoking habit.

WARNING!: Once you've tasted the success of kicking the smoking habit, you may become addicted to success!

Did you know that after just on year of quitting smoking you will have cut your risk of heart disease in half? The health benefits will help ensure that you will be able to enjoy many more New Year celebrations and will make future resolutions seem so much easier to honor!

Not only will you reap the health benefits by quitting smoking, just think of the money you will save! Set that money aside all year long and, depending on how much you smoke, you might just be able to afford that 42" Flat Screen TV you've had your eye on next Christmas! (Heck, some of you might even be able to get one of them Blu-Ray DVD Players to go along with it!) What a reward!

Everyone is a bit different and it takes different methods for each of us to kick bad habits and addictions. Everyone who has made this resolution is looking for answers on how to quit smoking. One of the key points is to stick with it and know that as hard as it gets, it will eventually get easier. You will experience withdrawal symptoms within the first few weeks and you can probably expect a relapse within the first 3-6 months (especially if you go through an especially stressful time). No matter what, you must keep sight of the light at the end of the tunnel, (unless it's the glow of a cigarette!).

Well, here are just a few products and programs that might just be right for you and help you stop smoking. Try one or a combination of a few methods.

#3 Smoking cessation products (gums, lozenges, patches): These products contain nicotine, however many people swear by them because they slowly reduce your cravings for nicotine.

Commit Lozenges: These lozenges gradually reduce your cravings for nicotine and may help reduce some withdrawal symptoms. Over a twelve-week course of using these lozenges, you gradually reduce the number of lozenges you use on a daily basis. The use of lozenges can also help curb weight gain as the person will not be seeking a substitute for smoking to keep their mouth busy. Commit Lozenges also includes free access to an online individualized stop-smoking plan with Committed Quitters.

Nicorette Gum: Same as the Commit Lozenges, Nicorette Gum provides a gradual reduction in your nicotine dependence with a twelve-week program which starts with 9 pieces a day. The gum also comes with access to Committed Quitters online smoking cessation support and individualized program.

Nicotine Patches, such as Nicoderm CQ also gradually reduce the smoker's dependence on nicotine. Nicoderm CQ comes in different steps depending on the amount a person smokes. If you smoke more than 10 cigarettes a day, start with step 1; 10 or less cigarettes a day, Step 2. The patches are placed on the skin and nicotine is released into your bloodstream gradually throughout the day replacing the need for cigarettes. As with the other products, Nicoderm CQ comes with online support through Committed Quitters.

No matter which methods you try to quit smoking and realize the successful completion of your New Year's resolution, stick to your goal and you will never regret it! Kick the smoking habit, defeat your nicotine addiction, increase the amount of money in your wallet and, MOST importantly, add years to your life and enjoy each one!
