I quit smoking on New Years eve 2010. I’ve wanted to do it for a while, but until then, never really REALLY wanted to I guess.

I switched from Marlboro mediums (back when they were called mediums) to Natural American Spirit ultra lights (orange pack I think). This served two purposes:

1. Lower the amount of tar and nicotine
2. Decrease the number of chemicals additives.

I also met a wonderful girl that didn’t pressure me to quit, but told me that she would rather I didn’t smoke.

Having completed the transition to the lighter cigarette, it made it a little easier to go longer and longer without a cigarette. I decided that it was time to start 2011 smoke free.

I finally did it!
