Hi all newbie here! On my second month of vaping and loving it!

[max_headroom]

Hello fellow vapers! Max here! I was a light to moderate smoker, but smoke free for 5 weeks. I did some research and chose green smoke, and have been very pleased so far. Its so fantastic to vape in all the places smoke has been banned! And my blood pressure has dropped from 150/100 to 130/80!!

Welcome to the wonderful life saving world of vaping Max! You found a great place here at ECF to learn a LOT! It's a lot to go through but there are so many friendly helpful people here..a terrific community. I started with SafeCig then within 2 months I moved on to a KGO and I now have Ego Twists. That's about as fancy as I want to get right now. It's very satisfying for me..but everyone has different tastes and likes and dislikes.

So glad you took the plunge into vaping! I have to pinch myself now..I'm not a smoker YAY!

Thanks Lightseeker! I am finding so many benefits to vaping. Primary one is I can vape all day long without my wife asking me to shower or banning me to the guest room like in the bad old smoking days.

Isn't it great? Don't have to roll the window down in the rain, let the air conditioning out during the summer, and don't smell like an ashtray. My doc is going to take me off niaspan because my HDL has come up since I stopped smoking. I have always had low HDL and LDL and have been on meds to bring the "good" cholesterol up.

Welcome.. Ive been analog free going on 2 weeks. Tons of info on here.

Only 2 days for me. I am in my hotel room happily vaping Halo Tribeca inside on an eGo twist that I picked up before my trip. Can't wait to get home as my epipemod should be there in a couple of days.
Congrats to all of us!

[crossjeremiah]

its growing on me. i think i just need better liquid the liquid they sell at volcanoecigs where i got my ecig... kind of sucks

 

[max_headroom]

Thanks all for the warm welcome. Question - is there a terminology FAQ? For example, I'm not exactly sure what "analog" refers to, although I have a pretty good idea from the context.

Hi Max,good for you.Congratulations and welcome.

 

[Davenkay]

Yes Max. There is a glossary somewhere in the new members information. Analog = a real cigarette. Congrats and welcome.

Did most of you make the immediate switch from analog to vaping. I have been using an ego for two days (unsuccessful with any of those that actually look like a cigarette). I am feeling like I can be successful with the ego, however I am fighting some urge to smoke a few analogs - probably will help when I go back to work tomorrow. Just wondering if people transitioned, or if that is just tempting relapse

 

[max_headroom]

I did make the switch cold turkey and have not touched analog since. I think what may have helped was several years ago switching analog brands to Ame**can Sp**it. As they have no additives, the withdrawal effects are likely much less. IMHO YMMW. I now find I even dislike the smell of analog.
