Quit smoking, says Sameera Reddy
May 30th, 2011 - 9:05 pm ICT by IANSNew Delhi, May 30 (IANS) Hit the gym instead of smoking to slim and trim, advises Bollywood actress Sameera Reddy, a day ahead of the World No Tobacco Day.
Sameera, a non-smoker, also feels that women who smoke to remain fit should change their approach as “there is no substitute for a good diet and exercise”.
“Make the decision to quit and then stick to it. Stay strong, I have seen many of my friends go through nicotine withdrawals and it’s not easy but totally worth it in the end,” Sameera said in a statement.
“Do some yoga, practice some deep breathing and if the cravings get too much use a nicotine chewing gum or patch but don’t give up and go back to smoking,” she added.
The actress has featured in films like “No Entry”, “Race” and “De Dana Dan”.
