    I quit tobacco for two months. I have started to slip... and go through one pack per week. Still better than my previous pack per day!
    I find it hard to resist (tobacco) when I drink!

    I smoked 2+ packs a day for over 35 years...wanted desperately to quit for over 25 years. Tried to quit and failed too many times to count.

    I got my PV and haven't smoked since. It took no effort, except for standing firm the few times my PV gave me trouble, like the atty or the battery...but I have had spare parts the whole time.

    I'm thrilled beyond words.

    Default quit without trying!

    I quit everything without trying!

    Started out with no intention of quitting. Just wanted to try this new thing that someone told me about. I got on this forum and really did a lot of reading and research, watching youtube videos on all the brands and got pretty psyched in to the whole ecig thing before I even ordered it. But I figured I'll buy a cheap one incase I didn't like it I would at least know about it. So when it came in the mail I was very excited about trying it.
    I really could not believe how much I liked the taste and feel.
    I remember the first few drags saying to myself "I can really get used to this". Then I tried the lower nic carts after the first 3 days and it was ok, then a few days later the lower nic but for the hell of it about a week later I tried a regular cig....
    and that's when I knew I was done with those forever....nasty, rotten, yucky, I don't know how the hell I did that for so long and loved it! 40 years of 2 packs a day!!!!!!!!

    I started on june 16 2009 and now I don't even vape any more or very little just for fun! I thought for sure that would go on for years..well I kind of wish it would.

    I highly recommend the ecig to anyone who is trying to quit or not even trying to quit, it's just a better way to get your nic fix.
    I have heard so many horror stories of people trying to quit.
    This is by far the best way. And forget all of the FDA gov. crap that is going around, I have done my own research also and most of you on this forum know that they just want to get the almighty $$$ out of it and we all knew it was gonna happen.
    Do your own research before you listen to THEM.

    I know this was a long story but I'm still so amazed with it and I didn't find any other stories that have quit everything. If anyone else has seen any, please send them to me? I feel sort of alone. Good..but sort of alone.

    Frank

    Today is my one month anniversary off tobacco!

    I couldn't have done this without my 510. This is the longest I've gone without tobacco since 1985.

    I have a new life now. Wow.

    I had no intention of quitting. Unlike most people I never felt great when I was "tobacco free" when I stopped in the past. At one point I stopped for 3 years and started up again, quite deliberately, because I hated how I felt.

    I bought my first e-cig, because it was advertised as "an alternative way to smoke without all the additives" and that appealed to me. I don't like all the additives in food and even in water that I am forced to ingest all the time, so getting rid of some of them seemed like a good idea.

    So I got this thing, and day one I smoked 3 analogues, day 2 I think I smoked maybe 2, or at least I lit 2, I seem to remember I put them out after a couple of puffs. Day 3 I lit 1, and that was the end of it.

    Vaping is just more fun for me, smoother and more interesting with all the different flavors. Its an entirely new experience. I was never able to choose a coffee flavored cigarette to go with my coffee in the morning, or a peach flavored one for the afternoon. That makes it just more satisfying all around than tobacco cigarettes ever were.

    I went with a group of friends and family to a movie in June, and stealth vaped all the way through. Its the first time I have enjoyed a movie in the theater since they took the ashtrays out of the arms of the seats. I just can't enjoy sitting in one place staring at a screen for 2 hours or more and doing nothing else. At least with vaping I had something to do with my hands lol (watching a movie at home I am knitting or sewing or something along those lines)

    One of the things offered by vaping that is not offered by any other alternative, is an interesting experience, which might be part of its success. Putting on a patch is about as passive as it gets, and chewing gum does not exactly engage you either, but with vaping there is just so much going on roflol...that after a while analogues are really kind of boring. Its kind of "Is that all it does? No lights? No Sizzle? No flavor?..Why bother.
