As a former smoker myself (who has the tendency to fall off the wagon when blasted, sigh) I always found the after dinner smoke the most painful, but the boozing smoke the easiest to give into (see earlier parenthetical). So I say this may be a case wherein if you're going to drink, give the willpower over to a trustworthy friend. Also, I definitely do want to smoke less when I've been working out regularly (I think this means I agree with Ellen, but I'll say it anyway). So getting out for a daily walk/jog/pogo will help. Good luck!
