Leyla Heiter Vows to Quit Smoking After Doctor's-Office Brochure

A medical brochure outlining wide-ranging smoking harms prompted her renewed quit attempt.

Overview

  • Posting from a doctor's waiting room, the Promi Big Brother winner told Instagram followers she decided to stop after reading a cessation brochure.
  • She said previous quit attempts lasted at most seven days and pledged to do everything necessary to overcome her nicotine dependence.
