3rd day and no analog smokes

[MJ12]

I'm going into my 3rd day w/o smoking. I vape at my desk and have gotten no complaints from anyone. I've been vaping Merango, aka strawberry, from Johnson Creek. Some have said it smells like a fruit roll-up . Sometimes I'll accompany a co-worker/friend to the smoking area, I vape and he smokes. I noticed yesterday that the smell from analog smokes is getting to the point of being disgusting, so I have to be careful to be up wind... I don't smell their smoke and they smell my "fruit roll-up". Even after I eventually cut the nic down to 0%, I'll probably continue to vape. Why? Because I just enjoy the experience.

Glad you stopped smoking, welcome aboard the vape train

To top that, i've also found analog smokes smell disgusting. Yesterday found full pack of analogs on ground and hoped it will be good, because i haven't normal cig in like 5 days, but after few smokes i realised, that i need to go home and recharge my e-cig ASAP!

Congratulations. I downloaded this cool app for my phone called cessation nation. It tells me how long it's been since I smoked, how much money I've saved, how many cigarettes I've avoided, and how much time I've saved.

Right now it's been 4 days, 12 hours and 7 minutes. I've saved $35.93, not smoked 130.6 cigarettes, and saved 13 hours 3 minutes of time when I otherwise would have been smoking!

Keep going OP!

I guess cessation nation is not for ios devices. Its sounds really cool. Great testimony OP. I started vaping about two months ago and would alternate between that and analogs and eventually started to go back to analogs full time. Last week I said no more smoking and went full time vaping. Had 4 cigs since then and each time they smelled sooooo bad and made me sick. One would think after that happened the first time I wouldn't go back for the second third or fourth. Then again my mom always told me she could never get me to stop putting my finger in the electrical socket...

I went to the app market and searched 'Quit Smoking'. This was the first one that popped up, was free, and was well reviewed. I'm sure you can find similar on your iPhone!

 

[MJ12]

That app sounds cool. So you were smoking about 1.5 packs a day. I was smoking about a pack a day, maybe a full pack on a bad, high stress day. Feeling all the better for quitting those nasty things. Keep on keepin' on, m8!

Good going. It won't be easy but you can do it.

Congrats MJ12... my last analog was Monday, so I'm right there with you. First couple of days were easy, for some reason yesterday I had a couple of cravings but got through them, I thought that was weird. My sense of smell is coming back and regular cigarette smokesmells horrible to me right now.

I'm new too and since quitting, I think the old cigs smell nasty too-like to the point it makes me feel ill. and I thought I would stick with traditional tobacco juices, well that's not the case since I like the vanilla and am eagerly awaiting trying strawberry cream or a strawberry banana type thing and other good sweet dessert type juices instead. I don't think i'll be brave enough to ever try bacon though. Once I get my desired spinner bat, bottom coil clearomizer and charger, i'm going to try more juices because I can switch around, but otherwise i'm liking this much more than the old cigs-my lungs feel better and just the taste is better. glad you are having fun too!

Brilliant! well done and welcome to the world of vaping.... now all you have to work out is which juice to buy :/

I'm mainly using it to track the money aspect so I can justify spending more on vape gear I can tell my wife 'Look! I've saved $200! I'm ordering a Provari now!'

I've made it a point to steer clear of the tobacco flavors for reasons that seemed obvious; mainly I didn't want to associate vaping with smoking analog cigs. That seems counter-productive, to me at least. I'm working on the last 2ml of my JC strawberry, will be going to either vanilla or black cherry next.

I finished the strawberry and now vaping the Johnson Creek "Vanda". The vapor and sweetness are off the chart, and the throat hit is just a bit harder than the strawberry... but delicious!
