The battle rages on..

I'm so damn sick of smoking, and now I'm going a little nuts with my vapor stuff, I want All of it.
Went to VK in Sand Springs today, like kid in candy store. Wanted it all, actually bought menthol and "Mad Cow" juice in the hopes I will taste SOMETHING. No such luck yet, but I am still smoking and can't expect my taste buds to be revived yet.
I tried smelling some samples-blueberry, cherry, cheesecake, mad cow. De nada. I could smell the regular menthol and bought it even though I don't like mint or menthol. I don't like a strong cinnamon, candy-type one either, but have been told that might be a good strong one to get through.
I bought a 1000 mAh silver ego battery, too, some new blank tank carts, and as a last-minute inspiration I asked about the low resistance cartomizers I've read so much about. She popped one on my ego after showing me how to (carefully) drip juice onto the filter. I took a quick puff and a HUGE stream of vapor hit the back of my throat and almost choked me. I coughed a bit and they both told me to take loooong, slow drags, demonstrating. I did, still almost choked on throat hit, but exhaled an enormous white cloud. I loved it! Been playing around with both of my styles- the tank and the LR. I like them both very much and consider myself lucky that I am a newbie now that so many improvement to PVs have been made. The only down to the LR is that it heats up too much at times. I might spring for a cone after all. Cosmetically it will look better, too I think, but that long silver battery hanging out front there with that itty-bitty black stem I stick in my mouth- something crude and sexy about it. Also, there's no WAY you would mistake it for an analog. More like a space cigar.
I'm excited to have indulged my growing obsession with pv STUFF and can see myself easily spending more than I do for cigs, but I think I'll calm down and get started counting my savings. I want one of those banners that announce how many days without a smoke and how much money saved. Some have something else, too, but can't remember right now. Oh well, I don't care, am a bit giddy and have a weird tast on my tonge from continually vaping my juices will-nilly. I think I smoked maybe 5 cigs today. Just fu..ing amazing.... Never thought it'd happen, thought I was doomed to a disgusting early end which I'd brought on myself. I tell everyone I see smoking about it. I'm like a proselytizing, fundamentalist Christian, or a recovering alcoholic (which I am in a way).
I'm going to blog away to myself, like journaling. If anyone wants to ride this newbie journey with me, that's ok.

Hang in there! I'm trying for the second time myself to get off cigarettes. I have been there on the "no flavor" problem. Just curious, do you scrape your tongue and/or do sinus wash? I found that those two things vastly improved my sense of taste.

Good luck and I'll be following your progress.
 
I've not had too many problems with lack of taste and smell, even after smoking for 13 years. It just might be the flavours and brands you're purchasing. Try vaporbomb.com's mango. No, I don't work for them. I just really like their ejuices. Hm, don't get their booze flavours, though. The only one of three I liked was Creme de Menthe.
