Beginner, giving up cigarettes for good.

[dirtytucson]

Hey everybody,

I came across this forum while googling things about vaping vs. smoking cigarettes.

On Friday I took a big step, I've been smoking since I was 18... I'm 25 now, I smoked my last cigarette and bought a vapor pen. Well, now it's Monday, and I still have yet to have a real cigarette, and I'm not craving one.

I bought a white rhino liquid kit on Friday, the battery is small, 650, I believe, which is okay for me. I'm in college, so when I have a decent amount of breaks to charge it. Today, I bought a backup, a Mini x9, and realized I actually like that one better than the white rhino (better pull, better taste?), same size battery, the tank is a LITTLE smaller... but I really like it.

Anyway, I'm hoping that posting on here will help me stick to vaping vs. smoking.

I was wondering if anyone has noticed significant health improvement with vaping vs. smoking?

I have also been reading this forum for some time as I am in the same boat as you. Congrats on quitting analogs, I plan to do the same, although I have not completely switched I went from 2-3 packs a day to 2-3 analogs a day. My goal in the next week is to make that 0 analogs a day. As far as health, just in the last few days the morning cough is almost gone now. Hope to see other improvements over the next few weeks, months, years.

Thanks Timbuck55!

And Jspiker77, my roommate is in the same boat. Only, she smoked cloves, not regular cigarettes. She's slowly switching.

Good luck and I'm sure you can do it!

welcome dirtytucson ... I quit a 30 year habit back in Sept ... feel great.

Congrats. Vaping is so much better than smoking. There are a multitude of health benefits. I don't run out of breath easily anymore. No morning cough. No going outside to freeze. The pros are long. Make sure you stay hydrated!

Welcome to ECF!

Different heads will definitely make a difference. So will different e-liquids. Unfortunately, you will probably have to try a bunch of both before you find what works best for you. Read up on here for advice; it seems to me like the 2 you've tried are pretty much on the low end.

I just started myself, and have been smoke free for a full week. I will have to admit that I haven't noticed too much of an improvement yet, but I did feel healthy when I was smoking. Good luck sticking to vape.

Congrats!!! I smoked cigarettes for something over 40 years and spent hundreds on patches and gum that did not work. I received my
Evod Starter Kit at 6:00 pm one evening and smoked my last cigarette at 7:00 am the next morning. That was about seven months ago. I really didn't notice any change at first but several people mentioned that I wasn't coughing anymore. I hit some tough spots several weeks after starting but just vaped like crazy and they passed quickly. Keep it up!!

congrats dirtytucson on making the switch, it gets easier each day away from the analogs, plus its a big benefit not smelling like a dirty ashtray all the time.
Just make sure you are drinking lots of water if you chain vape

Hey, welcome and good luck to you. About your roommate and the cloves...my granddaughter smoked clove cigarettes and started vaping. She got a strong clove flavored e juice, and mixed it with a tobacco flavor. She said it hit the spot and she almost felt like she was smoking one of her clove cigarettes.

Good luck. It's an adjustment but you can do it.

Congrats on taking the first step!

I quit analogs almost 2½ months ago, and I have noticed quite a few improvements in my health. The main one is that I am no longer constantly coughing crap up, not to mention I can finally breathe normally when I wake up in the morning!

 

[c2gtechmwr]

I love not coughing the crap up in the morning, well and the whole being able to breathe thing, that's pretty nice too!
