Hello All!
A little about how I came to this new habit! My Mother and Father in law Caught an e-cig demonstration in a mall 3 days ago ! Called my wife and said if you 2 will both give this a fair try we will buy you both the kits and the bottles of liquid! We talked it over awhile and said yea we will try it as long as you don't get mad at us if it don't work! An hour later they were at my door with the kits god bless them!
Ive seen these at the tobacco shops where I usually buy my roll your own tobacco but every time I asked about them no one knew anything about them...they would just point and say yea it's steam and not smoke and kinda roll there eyes! So to me it never interested me because I get plenty of steam in the shower and it never made me feel very satisfied!
After getting the batteries charged up and watching some people on you tube demonstrating how to use them and drip your own ( the directions included in the kit were not real clear ) we gave it a go!
I have been a hardcore smoker for 30 years smoking 2-3 packs of smokes a day ! Tried the patches and the gum (both of which had me smoking before the day was out)!
The first 12 hours of use that day was pretty amazing with me smoking 4 analogs? (sorry new to the terminology) Second day 24 hours with only 4 analogs and the 3rd day today with only 1 analog when I woke up! Honestly that 1 tasted dirty and nasty compared to something I loved for so long ! It's been the entire day with just the 1 and know I won't smoke another 1 before bed as it is 11:30 p.m. now!
My wife is having a little more trouble than me with it but is cut back to 4 or 5 today from a 1 - 2 pack a day habit ! I'm not sure why she's having a harder time than I am as I had a much heavier habit than she did but it's 1 day at a time and you can't walk before you crawl and i'm very proud of her for trying and hanging in there !
When they told me about it I honestly didn't expect any good results because I couldn't imagine steam having any type of kick that I need (throat hit is the term Ive found out since) but was shocked when the 1st big drag I took that I just knew was gonna be wimpy and disappointing actually made me cough LOL
I am gonna try the entire day tomorrow without one but don't know if I will make it but if I don't then i'm still better than I was a week ago! I realize that it is a journey and it took me 30 years to get to where I am so after 3 days feeling pretty good about the start i have!
Sorry if this is way long winded but I am pretty excited and looking forward to a smoke free future and a safer life for my kids!
Look forward to becoming a part of your community!
Thanks for listening!
