Hello everyone I've been reading this forum for a couple weeks now and figured i should try to join in on all the fun. Anyways i haven't vaped yet i put in order in at altsmoke on friday morning and am anxiously awaiting it's arrival. Been a pack or better a day smoker for about 15 years now. Ever since i started researching e-cigs i can't wait to make the switch and i'm really hoping the transition goes quickly and smoothly.

Welcome Anavrin

Good decision on switching to e-cigs, and also to joining the forum.

It can surely go quick, but smoothly is defined many ways. There's a learning curve to these things. I can almost promise there will be times where you'll be like "what am I doing wrong here" in the beginning. If you do have those days just remember that they will indeed pass.

Welcome to ECF and best of luck to you!

Good luck, I am new at this and it has been a fun venture. I am just glad to be done with the nasty cigs. The first couple weeks I stayed busy cleaning the stink out of my house. Now my house smells like vanilla, caramel and chocolate. I'm lovin it! I hope you do too.

There is a learning curve. It's not like smoking a cig. I'd suggest reading the following post in the library.

That is one problem I had when I started vaping. It seems like I wasn't getting quite enough vapor, and then I read that post and all is good!

Hey Anavrin! Welcome to ECF.

Really, as far as how to give yourself the easiest transition, this is the place to be. Goodness knows everyone has been amazing in helping me out while I was getting my feet wet.

I'm sure you'll love it.

Welcome Anavrin. I didn't find the forum until I already had purchased but have been reading every days since I found it. There's so much information here and also so much inspiration. Reading how others who were heavy smokers gave up cigarettes when they switched really helped me to believe it could work for me. I was a 2 pack a day smoker for over 20 years and today is day 12 for me without cigarettes. I'm still in the phase where I'm amazed that I'm not smoking. I've tried several times over the years and always failed but this time is completely different. I no longer have any desire to smoke.

A big thank you to everyone for being so encouraging and for sharing all of your successes!

Welcome! I'm fairly new to this as well. I'm blown away by how easy it was to put down the cigarettes I had been smoking for 10 years literally overnight. I hope you're excited to get started with this, because I'm stoked for ya! Being able to turn a few of my (ex)smoker friends on to vaping has put such a huge grin on my face, it's awesome.
