quitting cigs, keeping cigars?

I quit smoking cigarettes about 4 months ago. I've been only very occasionally smoking cigars(1-2 month) since then, just because I had tried several times before over the last couple of years and continued smoking cigars regularly, which led me back to the cigarettes. I think I might almost be ready to go back to regular cigar smoking soon. Maybe after the winter is over.

Basically what it comes down to, at least for me, is the decision to quit. It needs to be your decision, not what anyone else tells you needs to be done. Anything else and you will sabotage yourself.

Just on another note, Nicotene is fully purged from your system within 72 hours. So, 3 days after you actually quit, you are done with PHYSICAL cravings. After that, it's just breaking the old habits/associations.
