    Strange Question about urination

    Sorry 'bout that! I'm sure some 'auto immune' process caused me to go off topic. Forgot to tell ya...I now PEE better, too! ;) At least we're vaping! :D

    Strange Question about urination

    That's what I used to say...until sucralose and aspartame were identified as the culprits behind a number of strange 'auto immune' problems my body had been manifesting during 15+ years of using artificial sweeteners. Once I stopped the artificial 'FDA approved' sweeteners, allergies cleared up...

    noobs week 2 video diary :)

    deankenny, GOOD JOB! You're sincere, informative and (best of all) your EXCITEMENT shows! I'll be following your video diary. :thumbs: It gets better...especially after your taste buds 'come alive'. Some of the juice you cannot taste today (because the taste is too subtle), will be...

    about to give up and go back to greensmokes

    I'm a fan of stardusts and Nova, because I have never had the problems you describe. If the juice tastes horrible in every device you've tried, I would blame the juice. Bad taste tends to transfer from one device to the next. Hope you figure it out soon. Hang in there. It sometimes...

    Whole Tobacco Alkaloids

    I began vaping in 2009, but couldn't quit the analogs completely. After upgrading my hardware to Ego batts and Fluxomizers with 24mg eLiquid, I made the switch to vaping. Yet, after about 10 weeks, the URGE to smoke an analog was making me nuts. As a last resort, I bought WTA eLiquid from...

    Taste buds going flat

    Drink more water throughout the day. Progressive dehydration (caused by vaping humectants like PG and VG) causes taste to progressively become less noticeable. Staying hydrated will preserve taste, and will probably end the cycle. (Works for me.:))

    I am having a dreadful time

    Since it has NEVER happened before, it feels really strange, but "awesome" is a word I'll take! :thumbs: Thank you So sorry you had to go through that. I did the same with my dad in 2007. We can't kick ourselves too much about not trying to quit at those times. Previous experience with...

    One week

    Congrats jb and price. If you've got 'the right' hardware/juice, the weeks WILL turn into months! Took me two years to get this plane completely off the ground, but I've been flying analog free for over 10 months. If I can do it, I believe ANYBODY can do it! :D You'll figure it out, and we'll...

    I am having a dreadful time

    PapawBrett, You brought a tear to my eye~! GOOD for you finding something "OTHER THAN" tobacco. It's absolutely amazing (to me) that I was finally able to quit a 32+ year - 2 PAD - addiction...nothing else worked for me...EVER! I'm just over 10 months vaping exclusively, and TODAY I was...

    Heres how I wasted a lot of money...

    Yep, I think 99% of us are obliged to WASTE the first $500 just trying to find 'the target'! Just keep at it, and you'll find what you're looking for. Once THAT happens, you'll be in a position to recoup a lot of expenses, in spite of the initial lost bucks. That reminds me...I just bought...

    I am having a dreadful time

    Nope...not "nutz"...well...... ;) As for a 'Vape Meet', that's a GREAT idea! I helped organize such a meet locally (last February), and we did most of it online, right here on ECF. We had a great turn out, complete with vendors, tons of door prizes, a gigantic juice bar, great food, and about...

    I am having a dreadful time

    Hunters Friend, I started using a Joye 510 (cigalike) the month before you began vaping (August 2009), and was unable to make the switch to vaping. For two years I tried and tried, but cigs always won the weekly joust. It was in September 2011 that I upgraded my hardware and raised my nic level...

    HI, I'm a newbie; Please tell me I did OK

    You did GOOD! You'll keep the batteries and luv'em. In the beginning week or two, you'll probably like the 'T tank'...until it pees all over you a number of times. Then you'll chuck the 'T tanks' and attys, to use cartomizers, clearomizers (my fav)...and even a small tank. As others stated...

    2 mnths& counting!

    Congrats to EVERYONE above! I've began vaping 3 years next month (August), and have been cig free for almost 10 months! Finding the 'right' hardware (minimum of ego batts with fluxomizers or Stardust cartomizers), the 'right' nic level (had to increase to 24mg before I was satisfied - WTA...

    Cannot switch over to e-cigs completely

    Good thread! After 2 years with a weak cig-look-alike 510, I was unable to make the switch to vaping. But then, in September 2011 I bought an ego kit, and that did the trick - ALMOST. After 2 months, the craving for an analog was quite strong, regardless of nic level (24mg), so I tried WTA...

    Breathing problems?

    Welcome to MadVapes LLC sells UNflavored PG at 0, 6, 11, 16, 18, 24, and 36mg. You could buy a bottle of PG at 24mg, and dilute it with an equal amount of VG for a 12mg Unflavored vape. I like VG, but 100% makes my chest feel tight. Supposedly, PG improves flavor, but the 100% PG I tried left...

    I want to quit smoking analogs...

    I hate to admit it, but as my taste buds started working again, I've gained about 25#'s in the last 8 months. Food tastes so GOOD now...jeeeeeeeezzzzzz. I used to eat HOT & SPICY wings, but my mouth no longer can tolerate much above MILD. Also, I couldn't really taste my eliquid for the...

    I want to quit smoking analogs...

    I concur with all posts above...YES, you can quit analogs with ecigs. It took ME over 2 years to find the right combination allowing me to make the switch, but once I found it, I've been FREE since September 2011! :D (It was 2 years of weak batteries and weak juice that prevented me from...
