Drinking Alcohol While Quitting Smoking

Experience is the best teacher, and I have read many, many other anecdotes like this over the years.    I hope you will take this cautionary tale to heart and learn your lesson from theirs:

"Then, I went out Saturday night and drank wine and I did it.  I smoked a cigarette.  Then, I smoked another.  Probably 4 in all.  I slipped.  I relapsed.  I failed."  

Please don;t chance it.  A quit is a terrible thing to lose.

I smoked until a vascular surgeon informed me of the damage I had done to myself by doing so. I quit 11 years ago, and I can swim laps virtually FOREVER now, walk most other days 40 minutes to an hour and a half. What a difference quitting has made in my life! I strive to help others find this wonderful freedom from addiction, too.
