On Friday it was six months that I smoked my last cig and started vaping properlly.
I had ego batteries and ce4's and thought they was ....e so I would vape through the week and smoke on the weekend
Then I seen my mate and he had a vision spinner 2 and it was like wow ... is that,I wanted one of them so I got one and 2 ce5 tanks a bottle of tidy menthol and I was in love.My missus was two weeks behind me she bought a cheap ego style battery and ce4 tank and loved it.
So far I've bought two spinners an ego twist a mvp 2.0,iStick 30 and 50 and a tesla invader(when it comes)
Attys I've got 3 aspire ets,2 mow tanks 1 nautilus 5 gs air's (love them) iclear 30s and a kanger sub tank
Tracey has bought 2 or 3 ego style batteries and about 10 -20 ce4s and still vaping.She did try a spinner but Said it was to big
I think she has done amazing not to smoke
Well done on the 6 months! ...I'm not so bad now, but loved seeing that counter tick up every day ...kept wondering if I'd fail, but my own stubbornness kicked inand would never have let me.
I smoked for almost 50 years, and for the couple of years before I stopped, smoked 36 per day ....but, I had no intention whatsoever of stopping smoking. I'd never managed before, so stopped even thinking about it ..the very thought made me reach for them!
Ever curious, I bought a disposable with the weekly grocery order in October 2013. It sat in my desk tidy beside the pens (after I'd had a taste of it) - and at Christmas I popped it in my pocket and sneaked a few puffs of it while we were out to lunch.
It came into it's own for my 6 monthly BP check mid January ...used it for a couple of hours before I went. Helped keep it down and I didn't smell of cigarettes!
I was intrigued when I realised I hadn't craved a cigarette - so again, purely out of curiosity I thought I'd see if I could smoke less by using it, so got another few with the groceries.
First day I smoked 1/4 less .....then it got to 1/3, 1/2, and then when it got to 6 I suddenly realised that there was a possibility that I could perhaps keep that up ...or even get it to less.
There came 2 days when I had one when I got up and actually smoked it outside, and the second one around 7pm.
I laughed to think that I was going to be trying a whole day without even one. On Jan 28th, I had that first day without a cigarette and was absolutely amazed that me of all people ..me who would plan my life around my cigarettes rather than suffer in silence without, could actually go for a whole day without one ..and not even worry about it - quite the opposite, I was overjoyed! My cigarettes were still there on the shelf under the monitor ..nothing to get panicky about.
Three weeks later, I coughed, and my husband sternly told me I should stop smoking! I just fell about laughing! Three whole weeks, not a cigarette smoked in the house, and no-one, not even the only other person living in the house had noticed.
It had been my gleeful little secret. I wasn't going to kick myself if I failed, and no-one else could either, because they didn't even know! I couldn't believe nobody noticed!
If I could give up - by accident - and using those little disposables, I think most people will be able to.
Yes, it's nice to be able to buy the better, more efficient batteries etc., but to be honest, if I hadn't developed the breathing difficulties with PG 6 weeks in, I'd probably still use them because I
liked the Greensmoke and V2 cartridges.
In fact, who knows - I may have stopped altogether by now.
But, I don't mind - the advances with batteries, mods, tanks and even better liquids has been quite an adventure ..and of course, the company here is brilliant.
You should both be proud of yourselves - 6 months is good and will soon turn into a year ..and that really is a good feeling!

(To be honest, for all it's another 'chunky' one, the iPOW is a far better battery.)
Terry, Bob & Ian will all tell you that around a year ago, I said firmly 'no way' when they said I needed a mod! ...they corrupted me ..yes, that's what it was
Actually, they've been more than helpful when it comes to knowing what does what and which to avoid
