Forever Grateful

[TheRedlines]

Hey guys..... A little over 3 months ago after a very heart felt prayer I discovered this electronic side of the inhaled nicotine market. After a couple weeks of fumbling around I wound up with a decent tank and ego type battery and soon fell away from analogs. I had been smoking for almost 30 years. More than 20 of those were at more than 3 packs a day. Rightfully, I should be dead. Instead I now live by grace through the gift of the Electronic Cigarette. Of course vaping hasn't provided eternal salvation but it has bought me a new life here on earth. I am forever grateful for all of you in the vaping community. You've all helped me to come this far and I can't show enough appreciation. Thank you.

TPAD here and my health was dive bombing after hitting fifty at the first of the year, I always knew it'd be time to quit, and had many times, but this is doable!

thanks to you all!! ! (too)

Hi Redlines

Im also new to the forum and also prayed for relief from smoking analogs for 27 years. Looks like we both got our prayers answered.

Isn't it wonderful?
I smoked for 45 years, pack and a half. Diehard...I thought I loved to smoke, ha ha!
Never thought I would be able to quit.
A friend showed me his e-cig and helped me order one. Four days later, I was done!

Dang you guys haven't wasted any time at all. Thank you for the warm welcome! It's thanks to folks like you that this has been such an amazing transition. I figured it's about time I come out of lurking phase and begin helping others the same as you have done for me. May you all be blessed as I have and congrats to all of you non-smokers!!!

Funny, I've just hit the big Five-O as well, back in May, since then I've lost 2 stone, and it now appears I've stopped smoking as well, lol Something about reaching that epic milestones seems to have spurred me on to take a good look at myself and really get my life in order.

Welcome all newcomers. Just had my 10 month anniversary after smoking for 55 years, started at 12 in the papershack. My doctor is happy, I am happy, and down to 6 ml, banging on a mvp2 with an aspire mini bvc.

For me it was 40... It sure is great living this new life isn't it?

Oh you have no idea just HOW happy it makes me, Redlines, a new lease of life indeed. In fact I may have to start Clubbing again!! LOLS!!!

 

[CdnDiva]

Love this thread! And feeling the same way

 

[TheRedlines]

Amen!!! A new lease on life indeed! I had a big smile the other day at a new dentist. As I filled out my paperwork I was able to answer "No" to the question: "Do you smoke?". That was a pretty darned good feeling!!!

You is welcome Redlines! I know we have a lot of lurkers who can and do learn a lot from what is posted here. But now that you have decided to join the gang - don't be shy. If you have any questions about anything feel free to ask - it's what we do. lol

Congrats! As a now very-ex 30 year 2 PAD smoker I salute yoo!
