hello all!

[nikki martian]

New vaper as of today. Just got my goodies in the post yesterday morning. Had tried cigarette loookalikey types before with no success, but had felt the ones you fill with liquid would be too much of a faff. Now I have a clearomiser type, and boy was I wrong. It's so easy to use and I think I may be a permanent convert to vaping already after only a few hours. Just to put that in context I have tried pretty much every other way to stop smoking cigarettes that you can imagine to no avail in the past. I'm so happy that I decided to try a different type of e cigarette after reading up on some of the forums here. So thank you to everyone on these forums for posting as without that I would probably never have found the courage to try the switch as the other style e cigs would have put me off. Hello to everyone and look forward to picking your brains in the future if I need any advice for changing my set up, or finding good new flavors of juices. And wish me luck at a pain free transition to the world of vaping. 12 hours so far without a cigarette. From minimum of 20 a day (to about double that if on a night out) Nikki

If you are like me I have smoked since I was a teen. I, like you, have tried the e-cigs with little success. So I went back to smoking regular cigs. About 4 months ago my brother started vaping. I quickly got online and started looking for myself. I found tons of new stuff I had never heard of. I tried to make the best decision (prior to reading this forum) I could. I got some vapor king storm kit. I got me started in the right direction. I quit smoking analogs almost immediatly. after vaping for a few days I tried a light em up cig and it tasted awful. It was like the first time I started smoking. So from that day I have only vaped. It has help me quit smoking all together for almost 3 months. Love the idea of no more chemicals and burns on the carpets. Congrates on you steps to quit smoking cigs.

Hope it works for you like it did for me. When I got my first kit I had a half a pack of cigarettes left over. They lasted me a week and I have never looked back. This is after smoking for 28 years and trying all the different ways to quit smoking.

I was a smoker for over 20 years. Tried patches, gum, and everything else. I enjoyed smoking. Couldn't bring myself to quit all together. But now, Vaping feels the same and it occupies my hands. I'm pretty sure I am not ever going back to the analogs. I put myself around some people who smoke analogs to test myself. I am happy just puffing away on my Vamo instead.

Congrats, Nikki! I've been vaping exclusively for just over 2months. I got my kit on a Friday afternoon, and had my last cig on Tuesday. (and that last one was "just to be sure" that I actually preferred the vape!). I had only intended to cut down my smoking, as I didn't really think this would be a via le substitute...but it is. Hubby is still smoking and vaping-- having a tougher time with the transition, but even that doesn't bother me, or make me want a cig. The Hardest thing is looking for eliquid that I really like...and keeping my juice and mod envy under control!
Good luck to you...remember every cig you avoid is a good thing!

16 hours in now, and liking my vape more than smoking. Currently vaping all manner of diff flavors which makes me happy, decided from the off to go for no tobacco replacement flavors. Currently as I type vaping some Irish cream (bailey's) flavor. Love it! And yes was smoker since 13 so 25 years smoking and quite the addict. Soon be healthier and better off than in my entire adult life if I can stick with it.

I haven't even been counting the days I've quit. Honestly I have enjoyed vaping since I started. Don't know if that's just me, but I really like vaping.

 

[nikki martian]

I very much doubt I will count the days once I get past a week or a month. Seem to be enjoying my new vaper and hope that will continue. Have lots of flavors still to try out, so unlikely to get bored anytime soon. Now I just need more clearomisers and a cupboard for all my liquids etc. before they take over the world.

Same here. Need to go shopping for a nice box to keep it all in.

The flavors are fun. it doesn't take long to realize that being able to vape on the couch watching a movie is superior to running outside constantly for a smoke. When my wife and I started vaping, about three days in she turned to me and said, "I like this. I *really* like this." We've been analog free for about 90 days now and there is no looking back.

 

[nikki martian]

Ok, approx 2 normal fags all day, and 20 hours in, as well as having few beers. This for me is exceptional. Now on the raspberry and cappuccino flavors for the evening. I reckon knowing myself I may still cave in to the odd normal one to start with. But hey am doing really well, and I reckon eventually will be no more ciggies, so I am pleased. It's all about knowing yourself and what will work for you I guess.

I knew from my very first vape that I had found the solution to my smoking problem. I can vape in my home and in my car without reeking of an ashtray! Congrats on kicking the habit
