Had my last analog the morning of July 10, 2013 and haven't smoked a real one since.

This was especially challenging because the first two devices I got were defective and weren't working. Somehow I survived until I got a working unit but it was four days of pain that I think otherwise may have been eased a bit if my vape gear was working.

Oh well, at least I got the "holding cigarette" and "doing something with your mouth" feel throughout (ha, ha, keep your dirty mind to yerself!). I think that's one of the hardest parts to overcome.

Keep off em, guys.

And keep on vaping!

After too many years of smoking, I quit cold turkey and didn't have another smoke for 6 years. Death in the family and I ran out and bought a pack. Smoked for another 3 years trying unsuccessfully to quit many times. Started vaping 27 days ago and it was so easy to give up. I did develop an allergic reaction to PG and had to smoke analogs for 4 days till my new juice came in and hated it! Got my new 100% VG juice in yesterday and I've been in heaven ever since. Virgin Vapors has 100% VG whereas most still have some PG from the flavorings in case anyone else has the same problem. Really clean line of products and the best I've tasted so far. Yummy!
 
I quit about 6 months ago when I started vaping the second time. The first time I used Dragon sticks and it wasn't enough vapor for me to quit. This time I bought an ego C starter kit and went from smoking 2 1/2 packs of lights a day to 0 on the first day. I am addicted to vaping!! I love the flavors and I have my nic at 6mg right now. I am also really getting into mods now...I bought a lava tube about 2 months ago and I just got a DNA 20 in the mail today that I'm going to try and build myself!! wish me luck!!

I've been playing with my evod setup for 2 weeks and 3 days. I have not quit smoking yet but I have seriously cut down. I'm finding that I don't like inhaling the cigarette very often, I just like the smell and the flavor.

The juice I've tried is from a local store, it's ok. I seem to like a flavor a lot for about 4 days, and then I'm tired of it or I can't taste it. I ordered two new flavors online last weekend and I'm expecting them this week. Hope that I can find one I fall in love with enough to finally end my abusive relationship with Pall Mall. :)

Second time vaping I still kinda smoke. I've had maybe 1 full cigarette today. I'm just doing what I did last time and wein off unintentionally untill I just don't smoke. I've had a couple days where I didn't and i didn't even pay any attentio to it. Cigarettes aren't as satisfying anymore. Then again it. Could b because I haven't been able to get a hold of a menthol

Sure have! Mine was a pretty smooth transition too. I put out the last analog on 25/Oct/2012 grabbed my little e-go with a ce4 filled with roughneck from OKC vapes and never looked back.

I've had a few cravings here or there but nothing that's been unbearable. I'm still searching for that perfect juice though. I think once I find it I'll be good to go.

I first tried vaping during the last week of April 2013. I immediately quit analogs and never looked back.
I have been smoking analogs for around 10 years prior to switching to ecigs and didn't believe vaping would be anywhere close to being as effective of a healthier alternative as it is.
I have tried nic patches and stayed off analogs for a couple of months, but always went back to my old habits.
I am glad I have now found a permanent solution. My breathing has improved, stamina is top notch and the house smells fruity! Wife couldn't be any happier!

I quit smoking for the longest time in my life thanks to Vaping
never going back ! ! !

Awesome, good for you! My drinking buddies on video chat all switched to vaping and my friends locally are making the move too. I started the beginning of May and after a couple of weeks doing that cigarettes now gag me. I can't imagine going back either. :)

I've tried every smoking cessation product available over the past 15 years. I've smoked for 31 years... I've been 2PAD for the past 18...

I was getting ready to paint the living room of the house I share with my GF. We'd been talking about trying e-cigs, the good ones, as we both hated the cig-a-likes. So we found a B&M that sold Wicked-Twisted products. I got us a Twisted Tornado (ego-c) kit to share, a few flavors of crappy, White Rhino 24mg juice and declared no smoking in the house! I found ECF within days, placed an order at Mt. Baker Vapor and haven't looked back...

This is an obsession for me. I've got 3-mechs, 1 vamo, half-dozen ego-batts and about 20 atties between the two of us. I've got my 65 y/o mother an Evod-kit and make her juice for her. She's only cut down on the stinkies as she's not gone all in. But I'm working on her.

Since I've started vaping, 6 new B&Ms have opened near by, I live on ECF and order from at least ten different vendors... My daily vapes are VVV poly-pro carto-tanks. I'm trying to find happiness with RBAs but I still don't smoke!

I smoked for 19 years, and tried to quit several times. It was always a painful experience. I must say vaping has been the easiest transition! The only down side (if you can even call it that) is the money I save from no longer buying cigarettes. I now spend on vape gear. But I feel better, my girlfriend is happier, and so am I!
