How often do you smoke?

[Chubno]

I enjoy about 5-6 cigars a week. I so enjoy coming home from work and taking some time to slow down and just think about my day and let the stress of it all go away. I wouldn't want to smoke something that would make me sick, that isn't relaxing to me.

 

[MattBell]

Usually 2-3 a week, but I'm trying to increase that a bit as I get more and more sticks. So many to try! So little time!

I usually retire to the cave several nights a week and have a couple, so on average I have about 8 a week.

I smoke 1-3 a week normally. I have done 4-5 a day on the long weekends but that is very rare. Just don't really have time to smoke more than that.

Seriously, apologies to everyone if it felt at all like I was "clogging" the board with questions about nic sickness.

Was not my intention at all. At all.

I have smoked for 15 years now - I started at 1 per month and did that for about 10 years. Never a problem with sickness UNTIL I smoked an Joya de Nic on an empty stomach. Now I smoke 3-5 a week. I really think there is nothing to the quantity you smoke and more to the quality. Just be careful of anything that says "double ligero" (la Flor Dominicana) and things like that - smoke what you like and when and how often you like - it's a hobby not a habit!!
Cheers!

Having smoked on and off for roughly 5 years - usually one a month or to celebrate a special occasion - I have noticed that I've begun to smoke more frequently since I joined BOTL. Most of my smoking is done during reviews with an additional smoke or two to be had after word, however, I have begun to smoke more on weekends or when friends come over but still no more than 3-5 a week

Typically I smoke 1-2 per week.
During the summer it can vary by as much as 5-6 per week and during the winter it can go way down to 1-2 per month.
So far in October I think I have had 5-6 cigars, and three of those were in 1 sitting.

No I do not smoke cigarettes.

I forgot to add that I want to smoke more often and used to when I had an old beater of a car. Now that I got a new one earlier in the year I (ahem the mrs.) Doesnt want me stinking it up right away!....

:dance:

i just wanna reiterate what was stated in a previous thread... if you are regularly getting sick from smoking you really need to see a doctor about that before you go on smoking more. the brothers here can only share their own experiences, but we all experience chemicals differently. seriously bro, see what a doctor has to say.

I'm not worried. It's not regularly. I've only felt woozy once from the last 10 or so sticks I've smoked, and it was that Illusione HL.

be that as it may, i'd still say it would be smart to talk to a doc. i'm sure a medical profesional will have alot more insightful advise than "smoke more". then you can continue on your journey in this hobby more confident and informed... just my .02

I will when I'm home. I'm not even in my home country right now.

But really, like I said, I'm not worried. If I have a full stomach and smoke slowly, I'm fine.

So no more talkin' about this Appreciate your concern and advise, though. Thank you.

On a different note, I've had bad luck with two sticks in a row. That is, two sticks I didn't enjoy.

I'm hoping I can turn my luck around with a Sultan either tonight or tomorrow.

 

[DeeDubya]

Probably too often...

 

[alfbacca]

I used to smoke once a week only on weekends, but recently I've upped it to about 2-3 times a week. I don't live far from work so now that the weather's been nice I'll walk home and have a nice smoke.

 

[majicmerlin]

Whenever I feel like it.

"How often do you smoke?"

To be truthful, the only time I'm not smoking a cigar is when I'm sleeping....but I've been smoking cigars for close to 35 years....and I smoke between 4-6 a day! :cbig:

Very impressive Larry,This mans a chimney! Sometimes I feel like I can smoke a couple in a day or maybe because the stick was that good I want another but generally I smoke 1-2 on the weekend during *Me Time* Being as though I've been smoking for only a couple years certain sticks still knock the wind outta me! :frownno:

 

[StocktonJohn]

I smoke about four or five times a week. More if I'm lucky!

 

[King1of3]

I smoke at least 2 a day, more on weekends. I still get a stick once in a while that does me wrong. Not the cigar's fault.
