hey hey,,,,im new to this vaping scene
after having a baby 11 months ago,,,i had told myself i would quit smOking for good before she could talk,,,,my husband suggested purchasing vaporizers,,,at first ,,I was completely against it,,there was no way I was going to carry around something that resembles a car part and puff off it,,,,not only did the awkwardness of the device turn me off,,,but the flavors,,I loved the ritual of smoking a cigarette,,,the feel of it,,the smell of it as it was burning,,,I didnt want dragonsblood or cocoagooeymellow flavors
well,,the day came and he brought me home my new device,,,I havent smoked in a week and I am hooked on trying new flavors
Ive used the patch in an attempt to quit in the past and am by far more pleased vaping!
Cheers!

Well done! Vaping was the only way for me to be able to quit cigs. Now that i have some decent vaping-gear it's actually much better than smoking, much nicer tastes, more satisfaction, not the awful smell of cigs. It has also become a nice hobby, should you be looking for one ;-)

Welcome and congrats, maggotbaby!

Your story sounds familiar, well not the baby part! When I started, I thought I don't want to smoke out of a box, have to push a button for a drag, fill a tank, carry around a bunch of stuff. And who would want some fruity flavor? But once there, it isn't the "problem" I thought it would be and some of those "off the wall" flavors are rather nice! Let us know when you get around to trying some "dragonsblood or cocoagooeymellow flavors."

Hi and welcome to the dark side. We have better flavors

Welcome to ECF and I hope you enjoy your stay!

I also said I would never have one of those Nebulizer looking contraptions in my hand but now own a MOD. I also had a hard time finding a flavor I actually enjoyed but right at the moment I am vaping Tropical Fruit.

Good Luck and keep up the good work!

Welcome aboard. I started with an ego battery and said I wouldn't ever carry around a big clunky box. Fast forward to now and I am toting a 200 watt mod that looks like you could start a car with it. Love the flavor choices and not smelling like cigarette smoke any more.

Ahah, when I moved to Hawick last year, every time I walked down the main street every other person seemed to be sucking on a box mod and I remember saying to my wife as I lit my pipe, "You'll never see me with one of those stupid looking things!"

My daughter gave me an e pipe last October and a month later I also had a couple of iStick 30ws with Nautilus Minis - yup box mods!

Vaping is actually great, I haven't smoked since 17/10/2015 ( but I did for 50 years prior to that) and truthfully the switch has been painless.

Watch out though, first you acquire more devices as you get better and get more enjoyment out of vaping, then you start building your own coils, then you start making your own E Liquid and Heaven know what comes after - squonking and dripping maybe!||

Enjoy your journey, welcome to the forum and congratulations on making the switch.
