Well, I'm sympathic to what you are trying to do, but take it from someone who's tried just about everything short of crack and heroin.
No one quits anything unless they really really want to or they bottom out like an alcoholic does. In a way cigarettes are worse because unless you're athletic, nothing really makes you want to quit until you can't breath anymore.
Or you have a family and start worrying about them or something I guess
