How to switch to cigars?

I always think about this infographic when I think about quitting smoking.

Every time you light one up, you start all over again on your "path to recovery."

I did the e-cig thing back when the Joye 510 was the shiznit on the e-cig forums, way before all the fancy vapes the kids have these days. It helps. If you haven't tried it, I suggest you try it. Vaping offers a real "throat hit" similar to smoking cigarettes which makes it easier for some to adapt and then quit. Go with a low nicotine % fluid/cart when you start because most people overdo it when they start out. Nothing worse that a nicotine "overdose."

If you prefer cigarettes over vaping then be objective when it comes to smoking. Are you smoking to get the hit of nicotine/catch-a-buzz/wake up? Are you smoking to get the calming/relaxing effect after a long shift at work? When you achieve the desired effect put your smoke out. In my experience it was always before the halfway point. Some people might make comments about you wasting money for pitching your cigarette early, but you're trading the 25 cents that cigarette cost for your health and well being.

I found that eating better and working out made quitting easier. The healthier you are or try to be, the crappier you'll feel every time you light one up. The more it happens, the easier it is to move on.

Best of luck to you!
