quitting cigs, keeping cigars?

I am happy to say I am no longer a smoker of cigarettes. After smoking them for 33 years, I quit "cold turkey" Jan 9th of last year (one year anniversary coming up) and have not looked back.

I had been planning it for about 3 months and when Jan 9th came, I quit. I knew in order to be successful I would need to quit drinking beer (ouch). I knew this was a major trigger and didn't want/need the temptation. I did have a couple of beers about 4 months ago and the urge came back, so "no mas". As far as my cigar intake it remained the same during the this period.

Overall I have to say it was easier than I thought it was going to be. Besides, food take better, cigars taste better, cloths smell better, and bottom line I feel better.

So for all of you that have quit recently.....Congratulations, keep it up. If your considering it, challenge yourself and "Just do it".
