Hello all I am new here a smoker for 30+ years. I have had 2 heart attacks and numerous health issues related to smoking. I have tried everything from gum to pills, patches and even e cigs to no end. I guess some of the problem was ME, I enjoyed smoking enough to not give things an honest chance. My problem with Ecigs like Blu and others was there wasn't enough vapor to fill my lungs. I am a mouth to lung inhaler even taking the longest draw wouldn't make me happy. I was told last year if I don't stop smoking I wont last another year, even that didn't discourage me from smoking. I am closing in on that yearly mark in May as last may I had two stents put into my arteries and was told I'm 80% blocked on 3 major ones that will require open heart surgery. I take my meds and now eat rite but I was still smoking----Till 3 weeks ago As I'm no longer smoking cigs anymore. 3 weeks under my belt and I no longer want to smoke I am now using my vaping device and weening myself off nicotine. I bought a simple little kit for $30 that had a refillable cartridge, battery and charger bought e juice in my Cig flavor and just like that never smoked another real cig again. I was smoking 2.5 packs a day 3 if my wife didn't regulate me. So What prompted me to finally say enough is enough this is my life, I want it back---My beautiful Grandson my first grandchild and new hunting / fishing partner. I started at 24mg nic and I'm down to 12mg in 3 weeks. I wish I had found this sooner in my life. I still have a long road ahead of me but it sure is nice to be on flat ground for a change. As a Marine corp. vet I was taught to improvise, adapt, overcome and that's worked in most of my life except with smoking, who knew a cuddly little bundle of joy could break an old Marines will.
I am preaching the word for my family and friends to at least try these devices, beside the health benefits it's nice to have the extra change in my pocket from not having to buy smokes. That money is put to better use on baby Noah's college fund.
