Ok I've been lurking for the last week. :) Been reading a lot and learning all sorts of good stuff so I'd thought I'd say hi!

I had been smoking cigs for many years and managed to quit them while recovering from bronchitis. Shortly after that I started smoking more and more cigars. I wanted to toss them several times but could not get past 3 days without picking one up. Of course that went up to at least 5 a day (cigarillos not the big boys :) ).

Of course my wife wanted me to stop so she would try to help every time I tried, yet again, to quit.

She suggested ecigs on a few occasions but I was stubborn and didn't want to try them.

In fact she tried the ecig route again last Friday because she discovered a few people at her work that were using them and enjoying them.

Of course I was annoyed... that is until I had a coughing fit that lasted at least 15 minutes on Saturday morning (no blood just brown stuff from time to time). Ok, message received loud and clear. Time to get off these things before they kill me.

My wife had a card from the place her co-workers get their supplies from so I started checking out their web site (which lead me to here as well). I spent Saturday evening reading and learning and watching youtube videos. ecigs have come a long way from the first time I saw them in the mall years ago.

So I ordered my kit on Sunday and picked up an njoy ecig at QT to try while my order was being processed. The Njoys replaced my cigars which amazed me.

My kit arrived yesterday and I've been vaping like crazy.

Working on day 6 of no cigars. I think this is going to work and I like it. :D

So.... Hi! :D

...it's much easier and more fun when both spouses vape. The Very Best of Luck.

Welcome and congrats, BostLabs! I agree with Vapoor about how much easier it is when both spouses vape. You have a built-in support system. My experience is similar to yours. My wife and I went from a 45-year, pack-a-day habit to being nonsmokers in a single afternoon. It seems like a miracle. As you explore the vastness of ECF you'll find all kinds of information, but the bottom line is, PVs work!

Hi BostLabs, and Welcome to ECF!

I have a similar story was a cigarette smoker then my buddy got me on e-cigs for a bit then I went back to analogs then just to Black and Milds (about 5 a day). I picked up vaping again when my buddy got double shipped a rather nice VV mod and he passed it along to me but I was always missing the flavor of my B and M's until I found... Black Jack and Black Jack Plus(wine) e-juice from DIY Flavor Shack. I called Dawn at the shop and she confirmed these juices tasted similar to B and M's so I ordered the Platinum DIY Kit with two bottles of the Black Jack Plus. Dawn is famous for sending freebies and she lived up to her fame in this order, she sent a bunch of stuff but my favorite was a honey tobacco blend that I added some peach flavoring to and tasted like peach cigarillos. she has a bunch of ready to vape juice and a wide selection of tobacco flavors to choose from. DIY FS has the best customer service you can find try them out and I guarantee you will not be disappointed.
