How Long After You Began Vaping Did You Stop Using Analogs?

[4myhealth]

I see alot of the little tickers on the bottom of peoples' posts that show their success. I was just wondering, how long after you started using your e-cig did you COMPLETELY give up the analogs? Was it days, weeks, or did you never pick up another analog after your first vaping session?

Just curious.....Thanks!

The day I ran out of analogs was the same day I started with e-cig. I havn't smoked an analog since (Jan. 17). I probably would have if I had any but I don't and will not buy any more.

With 100% complete honesty, I was so excited to get my first device (a 901) that I ripped into it when it first arrived in the mail. I haven't had an 'analog' since before that package arrived. I still have half a carton of them (and an open pack someplace), but absolutely no desire to use them.

Edited:
I want to add that we were both a pack & half a day smokers for 15+ years

The day I got my e-cig, how I went about is was telling myself "self this is your new brand of cigs they dont make you brand anymore and if you want to smoke/vape then this is the only brand left on earth" and I have not had a real cig since. It can be a lil frustrating at times, these thing are not perfect but I believe this is my ONLY option and that has been getting through.

My e cig came in on last friday and i have not yet completely quit analogs. I have cut down from about 20 to 15 but i have 6 cartons at home of analogs and just like them better. My problem in quitting is that i need a higher nic. amount and a better flavor in the liquid. I just need to try some e liquid that tastes like a cig and that gives me more throat feel and that just is more like a cig. If i find that i am sure that i can quit.

The first week. The only reason I even had any the first week was because I was out drinking and thought I HAD to have a few analogs. I have no desire for an analog now though. I took a puff of a friends a couple of weeks ago and gagged. lol It is hard to believe, but they start to taste nasty after being off of them for a while. I really prefer vaping.

That's good, Tone! I kind of told myself that THIS is my ONLY option! Analogs are no longer an option.

I went into this with the thought that I wasn't going to quit. I got my first device in early September, and a week to 10 days later I had my last analog, It went something like this. Day1=10 cigs, 7cigs, 3,3,3,1,1,1.... The analogs just started to taste awful. I still don't classify myself as an EX, and for me that helps. I have 2 full unopened packs of Marlboro's in the truck and have no desire to open them, Its been 6 months. I have my fingers crossed, because I did quit cold turkey for 3 years in the past. Now I have a son and want to see him grow up. I HAVE to do this for him.

When all I had were my crappy superminis, I would still need an analog cig every 2-4 hours. When my 901 showed up, that was it for me immediately. Not a single analog after that. And I didn't even _want_ to quit, that's the amazing part. These little devices are nothing short of a miracle.

Since receiving my 901s, I've probably had the equivalent of 2 or 3 cigarettes. I didn't truly want to smoke them, but I was trying to finish off the rest of my last pack. I couldn't finish a whole one, so I basically ended up smoking half of 4 or 5 cigarettes. The taste was just too much for me to stomach.

Since finishing that pack, I haven't even thought about buying more.

Took me 5 months to get off them completely. I still have one every few weeks - when I start feeling I'm missing something.

I'm not.

 

[asidrave]

i had my last analog 20 minutes before i received my first e-cig...the DSE 901....about 10 days ago.

i still have 18 analogs of marlboro smooth pack on my shelf next to my desk...with the lighter..i took out of my pocket when i took my first vape.

no desire to even smoke them....i keep them there to remind me what i gave up..i will eventually throw them out...minus the lighter

Well it's been 4 months vaping for me and I still have that one marlboro in the morning when I get up. I've managed to phase out the after dinner/before bed one, that was a pretty hard one to give up too. Regardless I've went from a pack a day to 1 a day, so I must be doing something right

 

[ShimmyPrincess]

I stopped the day I got my e-cig. I have a full carton of marlboro's in the freezer. Was tempted for "just one" the 1st two days, but didn't give in. (I was 2 pack-a-day) Now I have no desire for analogs anymore and now when I smell smoke, it's stinky to me

 

[fatman]

It took two days for me. Been free of analogs since 2/9. In 27 years I quit three times and each time knew I would fail. Sometimes, like last time, it took a while, 2 years in fact, but i fell off the wagon. This time I feel confident that I can stay off them.

 

[ruggz]

Took me 2 days to switch over I'll try a drag every now and then just to remind myself why I dont smoke analogs anymore.

same day tried a cigarette a few days later and only made it two puffs, didn't taste good anymore.
