    Soooooo far so good. Just been playing some games and chewing gum. Rookie mistake, had a cup of coffee and instantly was like "Man , I could go smoke..."

    Every time you feel the urge, punch yourself in the junk. Hard. Eventually, you quit wanting one.

    A little extreme, but the "Shock The Monkey" theory has been proven effective.

    24 hours in and the cravings have not been horrible. There, but I've been able to fight it.

    It would be more effective if you hired a junk puncher...just sayin

    Daddy Irish, were you still smoking cigars while trying to quit?
    Yeah and drinking to, the cigars actually helped me because I don't inhale cigars so it didn't scratch that itch for me. Drinking was the pain in the ass one, I loved having a smoke while having a beer and thats been the hardest one to kick, but so far haven't slipped and not going to. You got this Randy, I know you do bro its worth it. It also helps to put more money back into the family fund and cigar and Reds Apple Ale budget too.

    When you smoke, everything is a trigger. It is so engrained in your being. Try getting some toothpicks (cinnamon) or some cocktail stirrers. May help with the hand to mouth thing. Unless you just want to punch yourself in the junk of course.

    Well, did you make through the night? Morning coffee? Or are you still passed out from punching yourself in the junk?

    Doc the hardest part of stopping smoking for me was finding a substitute for the ceremony of having a cigarette. I suppose cigars are simular. Stay away from cigaretts and treat yourself to a reward cigar for your efforts. On another subject, Doc you are getting "short".

    Out of the blue today, I finished watching a tv show and thought "Shows over, time to smoke." Then I was like "Jeez, it really IS a part of everything I do." Smoked three cigars today but no cigarettes...I'll call it a wash.And yes, yes I am...been a nice, relaxing vacation. So long Army, it's not you...it's me. You're great and I'm sure you'll find someone else. ;)
