Ok so I found out this weekend that I'm not that big a fan of full bodied cigars. I think since I'm new, they are a bit much for me. So on that note, can anyone recommend some good mild or mild-medium sticks that I can try out? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.:-)

A few I would suggest:
Casa Torano
Tobaccos Baez
Tobaccos Baez SF
Tobaccos Baez Series H
Ambos Mundo by Tatuaje
Cabaiguan by Tatuaje (let these age a year or two and you will be amazed)
El Triunfador by Tatuaje
Don Pepin White Label
Oliva Series G
Benchmade
Padron x000, londres and/or lonsdale all natural
H Upmann Vintage Cameroon and the new Sungrown
Nestor Mirianda Art Deco
Fuente Chateau Series
Fuente 858
Brickhouse

Oh, and I would guess you are a fan of full bodied, full flavored cigars but you havn't worked your way up to them yet. :-)

Perdomo 10th Anny Champagne
Perdomo Fresco(Great yardgar at ~$3 a stick for individuals, cheaper by the bundle)
Onyx Reserve(Don't let the oscuro wrapper fool you, they're fairly mild sticks)
Fuente Hemmingway(more of a medium-full, but it was the first stick I smoked and got me hooked so its much more of a medium, extra points for the maduro wrapper)
CAO Criollo(more on the medium side, but good smoke)

If they were too strong, be sure to ingest sugar at the first sign that you have had too much nicotine.

AVO

Good selections here already :-)

I'd add the Hoyo de Monterrey (except Legends) line and most of Carlos Torano's stuff are mild/medium and tasty. Won't damage the bank account, either.

I would also add The Griffins to the list. Extremely well made mild bodied cigar.

Quay d'Orsay
Davidoff

The regular AVO line is nice and mild and like smoking velvet. It's a beautiful smoke and will not give you the Nic-shivers. I gotta get some of these. I haven't had one in years.

I'll add the Carlos Torano Reserva Selecta. A great mild-medium cigar at a decent price.
