Haven't smoked in two days, I feel great!

[tehcrs]

Why hello there everybody!

I haven't smoked a cigarette in two days and I feel awesome.

I smoked for 15ish years and recently smoked 20ish cigarettes a day.

Two days ago, saturday morning, I would sit on the couch and do what I would do every morning; have a coffee and smoke a cigarette, when pretty much out of nowhere I decided to visit my local vape dealer and get some advice on e-cigarettes/ vapes. Dude knew what he was talking about and an hour later I left with an eleaf iStick Pico and 6mg nicotine liquids 70 (PG)/ 30 (VG). I paid $30 more for the vape than I would have online, but I his advice and knowledge are way worth the $30 so I'm not even mad. Hell, I would've smoked that money in not even four days.

Yesterday we attended our friends' son's baptism and out of the 20ish people there at least half of them were smokers. I didn't touch a single cigarette and to be honest I didn't even have a craving. I still can't believe it really, as I would love and enjoy my cigarettes.

Right now I'm in the office and my work buddy and I would always smoke together on our breaks. So today will be the next challenge but I have a feeling I won't fall into relapse. Why would I even?

I don't even any side effects thus far; no coughing, no spitting, no nothing and generally I feel super.

I'm already looking for which parts to upgrade in order to make this an even better experience.

I can't wait for taste buds and my sense of smell to recover. And I love smelling my hands, because you know.. They don't smell anymore.

I'm not even sure why I'm writing all this.. I'll keep this updated.

Cheers and keep vaping!

Hello and welcome!!!!! Congrats on making the switch!

Hi and Welcome- glad that you are here and like vaping! Yes B&M charge more, but really a good start and you need their knowledge and get to see and touch mods and tanks and try eliquids!
Pico is a really nice setup- Congrats!

Welcome and congrats! Before you know it, the weeks/months/years will fly by, and you'll be glad you quit.

 

[EKat]

Way to go!!! There's some awesome ejuices out there!!!

 

[SteveS45]

Welcome @tehcrs and I hope you enjoy your stay!

Since you know it might be a challenge being around smokers sounds like you are up to it!

Good Luck and Vape On Safely

Hey and thank you all for your kind words.

I've just been on a break with my work buddy and he would smoke his cigarettes like always and it wasn't an issue whatsoever. I even gave him my last pack so I won't have that lying around anymore either.

Feelgoodsman!

Ahhh, I wish I could have appreciated my first few days like that! I just wasn't sure it'd work and my equipment at the time was a hassle, so I was caught up in just trying to get things to work right.

I was dual using anyways so it was several weeks later until I got to feel that great feeling of being Done With It.

Congrats to you!!!

At my 1st year smoke free, my GF gave me a gift.
It was my last pack of smokes sealed inside an acrylic box.

I love hearing these stories. I've recently switched myself, about 3 weeks ago. Yesterday, I was in a restaurant, and ordered a beer. It was the first beer I've had since I quit smoking, and it was like tasting beer for the first time. It was an awesomely weird experience. Keep up the good work!

I remember tasting things that tasted different after quitting smoking and now some of the things I used to like I no longer care for any longer.

Congratulations! I had no intention to try and make the switch. I was in the smoke shop to get another pack of cigarettes, but the line was long so I was just killing time (no pun intended..) browsing thru the few starter kits and tanks and eGo batteries they had on display. I ended up buying a starter kit made up of a 650 mah eGo batt., a plastic tank w/ a CE4 top coil atty, and a USB charger. The sales lady gave me some useful instructions/demonstrations (like filling and such), and a free 10ml bottle of e-liquid. This was in the early afternoon, and later that night it dawned on me that I hadn't smoked or wanted to smoke a cigarette all day. That was a bit over two years ago!

Congrats man. The Pico is a very good mod to start out on, and it can take you quite a ways.

I was lucky enough to have a pretty easy time switching. Best of luck to you.

Picos are awesome, I just added a second so I can have a tank on one and a dripper on the other. Gotta have backups! Welcome to ecf!

I have 8 mods. The Pico is my favorite.
