I'm not a troll

7 hours is a win if you can repeat it for the next 7 hours and like, 7 hours for the rest of your life.

7 hours is not a "win" unless you think you can beat tobacco.

I think my greatest sort of "not" time frame win was like 5 weeks in the psych unit and then the State hospital where tobacco was banned.

OVER a MONTH I beat tobacco. Except, I had lit cigarettes in both hands the moment I left. Time means nothing. To be fair, I wasn't thinking about smoking the Majority of the time I was plotting how to kill my doc (he deserved it) and either getting away with it, or committing suicide right after. That's hard in a psych unit. Took a lot of thought. I thought PLENTY about smoking in between though.

Time and INTENT mean a lot.

Srsly I also did not smoke for 18 months while pregnant and nursing the WHOLE TIME I was craving a cigarette.

That was the most labor intensive, well earned cigarette I ever smoked. 18 months later.

I asked my doc if I should get pregnant again to quit and he kind of snorted, and said, "Anna, you could have TWENTY babies and STILL be smoking at the end of it."

I was like, "Um yes, that is true."

Time actually means less than pure intent.

My desire to not acquire COPD at age 43 was SUPER PURE let me put it that way

Anna

WHEW!!! At least he saved you from having to get pregnant 20 more times...just to stop smoking...

When I first discovered WTA...it was so expensive (Aroma) that I just kept it in one Tank...and would just do 8-10 puffs 5-6 times a day...

Then I ran across Umbavape's WTA which, when on SALE, is close to the price of many just-plain-nicotine-only ejuices...

Now...I keep half the Tanks in my At Home "Rotation" filled with WTA...and just vape whichever I'm feeling like in the moment...

..

Umba and Om make good flavored WTAs. There's a sale til midnight tonight, 120mls for $8.
They have the same physical address, so they might be connected.

I'm vaping Umba's True and Om Vapors 5AM now. Tobacco and coffee WTAs, yum. I let them steep over 2 weeks and the smoky taste calmed down.

I placed another order last night. They're great when the flavors meld.

P2, give the WTAs a go. They might really help you. They have sales at this place all the time, so they're affordable. Fall to, bro.

Never noticed that they have the same physical address...but I have noticed that OmVapors often has a better price for the UmbaVape-WTA (which I prefer)…

For me...I've found...nicotine-6mg. = Umba WTA-18mg. = Om WTA-24mg. = Aroma WTA-24mg....

Well, I ordered from Umba first and got two 120s for $49. Then I found Om who was having a sale, and had their stuff and Umba for $7 per 120. Bought 5 from them.

When I got the packages, the return address was the same street and suite number. !! And same exact packaging, got here on the same day. Not so happy about paying 10x more!


All of the WTAs that I got are really good, though. I've been vaping them for the last 4-5 days. I didn't like them at first, (BBQ taste), but they steeped out nice. Really yummy and I'm not chain-vaping like a nutcase.

Why do you prefer Umba? Curious, since I just bought a 120 of their TasteMaker Pure.

Ack, I only bought them in 6-12 mg. I wasn't sure how to translate FB into WTA! Is there a thread for these, by any chance?

 

[Nancy D]

I think some people simply cannot dual use. As long as they allow themselves to smoke at all, they will never stop. If this is the case for you, you've just got to be really tough with yourself. No smoking, period. Vape till you're blue in the face, but no smoking.

It will be hard.

Maybe it's that you can only dual use in the first week or two. Maybe more, but eventually you've got to stop!

I didn't think I would be able to quit, but I just kept hitting that vape, so as not to smoke.
Looking at cigs turns me off now; I've never had that ever!

I am one of those who "quit by accident"...after 50+ years of smoking...after taking a few puffs of my new "starter" setup...I put it next to my pack of cigarettes...and was completely surprised when I never chose a cigarette again...(when I wanted to inhale some smoke--exhale some smoke--and get a hit of nicotine)…

But...after a couple months...I noticed a (very subtle) constant mental haze and a (very subtle) decrease in my normal euphoria in daily living...ran across My Experience With Wta ...tried some WTA...and things have been GREAT...

My "equivalencies" are just based on what...for me...is the level just below where I start getting nauseous/lightheaded...

I prefer UmbaVape-WTA because...again for me...its effects seem slightly "smoother"...(whatever that means???)...and its throat hit seems slightly more "mellow"...

There are NO current WTA threads on ECF...(that I'm aware of)…

That's interesting about the reduced enjoyment of life. I don't think that I've been off the smokes long enough to feel any of that.

At this point, I'm thrilled that I haven't fallen back into smoking. Maybe the WTAs helped with that aspect, but I didn't dig them when I was going crazy from kicking cigs. The taste was strange and I was only able to get 6mg!

I think that I misunderstood your preference for Umba as liking their WTAs better not their liquid in general.

Too bad no one’s talking about alkoloids now, but the posts I looked at were from 2012 maybe. So I'm late to the ball.

Thanks.

Every cig you don't smoke is a win period. OP don't let anyone ever tell you differently. Not all vaper's completely give up smoking so you aren't alone. If you dual use you still aren't smoking as much as you were. Well done and kudos for at least vaping some of the time.

Well Nancy...you probably won't...since you discovered the "Wonders Of WTA" relatively early in your new Smoke Free Life...

LOL I definitely need that joie de life! Well, trying to save 12 million bucks like you not smoking, and not go loopy quitting, led me to WTAs. Nice talking to you! Hope you had a nice holiday. You have a vaping dog?

 

[gerrymi]

You have a vaping dog?

Not really sure what a "vaping dog" is...

Is that a dog who vapes...or a dog *I* vape...(or the tank that people who have unlimited free time in their lives to rebuild coils [and don't know about $1 drop-in coils] use...the Doggie)???

Or...are you a member of D.A.M. (Mothers Against Dyslexia) and mistyped...the only "vaping god" I know...(in my own mind, of course)...is me...

Lol!! Being a god in your mind is the best place for it, imho of course...

Well you have a dog pic as your avatar that looks like he's got a cig-alike in his snout!

I'm mad a lot of the time, but not enough to join any group that is Mothers against anything! Lol (Winners of the most hated by their kids award, and everyone else thinks they're pita's in general)

Oh, in my first WTA post to you, I firgot to mention that Om sells Umba on their site. When I bought the WTAs from Umba for a lot of money, I was p.o.'d since Om had their juice for less than $10 for 120mls.
Insert any song with Ripoff in the title here! Marc Bolan would work.

WOW!!! I actually kinda' totally forgot, Nancy, that my avatar is my buddy Blacknacious vaping a Fling...

(I take a handful of Flings with me whenever I'm admitted to a "We Confiscate All E-Cigarettes" hospital)…

I also tend to forget my banner...actually only really looking at it when I'm upsetting myself over the thought of spending $25 to get a new Mod (or Pod) that I don't really "need"...

So, the no vaping rule in hospitals is kinda counterintuitive, really. I read somewhere that smokers get out of bed sooner in hospitals to smoke, however. Lol
Rule nazis suck, especially with vaping. They’re worried about second hand vape clouds killing someone?

Your banner looks like you saved 12 million bucks! The decimal point and period. I hope I’m saving that much! Lol

Don’t inflict vaping on the cute doggie, you brute!!

Vaping at 8 to 10 watts MTL makes it easier to be stealthy. I get away with vaping in department stores, doctors waiting rooms, and even the exam room while waiting for the doctor to come in.

Dave, i admire that you vape all over.
Huge clouds aren’t needed, but I like sub ohming. I just got a VW mod and when I figure out how to adjust it, I’ll try the lower watt range with my Mini Naut.

I started vaping way before subohming was a thing. Cloud competitions started that craze. All I ever wanted was to recreate the act of smoking, but with vapor.

Joye 510 was my first vape, followed by the eGo. Both were vape pen styles around 6 watts on a tiny battery that I was constantly charging in rotation.

Whenever a Doc/Nurse leaves the room and asks..."Door-open or closed"...I always say..."Closed...it's SO noisy out there"...

Changed gunked up coils last night and started to vape today at 12 pm (w/o DST).
