I gave up for three and a half years then like a plonker started again. I now smoke 3 medium cigars per day. Only smoke after 8 P.M. at night.

I gained 30 Lbs over the three years but have lost it all now. With having gained some control over nicotine however I agree that it damages my health and even at just three a day it does affect my breathing. My voice (such as it is) is definately better with light smoking (don't ask me why , It just sounds a little richer) but I intend to reduce it to one per day over the next six months and then go back to being a non smoker. (and bugger the rich voice).

Congratulations Nutty but always be on your guard and don't do the silly trick I did.
