My success story, I had to share...

[weisner]

Hi my name is William, I was a smoker for 36 years. I started smoking when I was 14 years old. Recently I decided to try electronic cigarettes and thought I would use them just to pacify my wife while I was home and would continue smoking as usual outside the house. I was so wrong. The end result was that two weeks later I was not smoking cigarettes at all. This new and I believe much safer alternative has helped me stop smoking cigarettes after almost three and a half decades. Due to the highly addictive nature of cigarettes this transformation is incredible and for me it was a miracle.

I currently have a couple of ego pass through batteries.
I use Boge carts 2 Ohm
I have a CartoTank 3ml
I have an ego-t vaporizer as well

I find that each combination gives me a different vape and that they are all good for different reasons.

Very cool William! I know the feeling....it's a GOOD one! Oh and, welcome to the forum from another new guy.

Very nice!

Man, I love hearing stuff like this. I just started myself, but bummed a drag off my friend's cig today and quickly gave it back. Vaping is much better.

Hi Weisner and welcome to ECF! Glad to hear you made the transition to e cigs easily. Some have a bit of a struggle with it. I could not believe how fast I made the change and I was a pack a day (if not more) smoker for over 40 years. I loved smoking and never thought I would quit, but gave the e cigs a try for the benefit of my daughter who had been begging me to stop smoking. Again, I never really thought I would quit nor did I really want to. But, I was amazed at fast I took to e-cigs. I now vape a whole lot more than I ever use to smoke!

If you have any questions, this is a great place to find out info. People here are ready to jump in and answer questions and do their best to provide good info.

Hope you enjoy the adventure as much as I am!

WOO Hoo...Congrats on your success! Same boat for me except I smoked for 41 yrs. I have kicked the habit easily with the e-cigs which I did not know anything about 3 weeks ago. The day I got my vapes was the last analog I had.. Happy Vaping

Welcome and good luck on your journey. It's a bit of wild ride if you decide to make it one. So many more options then cigarettes...thousands of different devices and juice to chose from. Looks like you are already starting to experiment with different delivery systems and enjoying them for different reasons. You can have a lot of fun with this....as opposed to the "fun" of smoking which is generally puffing down a quick one behind a garbage can and hoping nobody sees you.

I had a very similar experience. I bought an E Cig because I had the flu and figured I would use it until my chest cleared out and I felt better. This was April 22nd of this year. After smoking 2 packs a day for 35 years I haven't had a cigarette since the day I bought that E Cig.

It IS a MIRACLE Weisner!

I am still amazed each day when I wake up and have coffee and a vape with NO CIGARETTES in the house.

We must have just been ready to quit but we either didn't know how to or we didn't believe we could actually do it. In my case I would say it was both.

 

[scvapps]

That is great! Congrats to you!

 

[hnyb0210]

Congratulations to you, William - it is a miracle for me also. As someone else said, I didn't know a thing about e-cigs barely a month ago & hey, check me out now!

 

[BreathingEasier]

Congratulations. I am 10 days analog free and can't imagine myself going back. Ecigs are truly a miracle. I already have parts in the mail to make kits for my father and sister. If it goes well, with them, there are a ton more smokers in my family that I can't wait to introduce this to.

Congratulations on your success Weisner! I just started vaping myself. It's been almost nine days! I'm getting my mom and her boyfriend kits for Christmas. They've been smoking for decades so I hope they'll be able to transition well also. Yay no cigarettes!

 

[horra]

[amerirish44]

Wow thank you for sharing your story..I am new and trying to throw the towel completely in and have had some reservations at first..now i have a date ...again thank you...joe

 

[shane dowling]

Thats fantastic William and very similar to my story and I'm sure many others, which makes me even happier for you.

Keep it up and enjoy it only gets better from here on in

Big gratz on kicking the stinkies and as allways stories like this might inspire people on the fence to make the leap of faith and leave the world of stinkies behind
well done

 

[stevenham]

Congrats and I hope you keep it up. While ecigs helped me to quit smoking, I still do sneak the occasional analog. My advice to you would be to never sneak an analog cig. It becomes very tempting to just go buy myself a pack every time.

 

[TarFreeMe]

Congratulations!! I love reading about experiences like this, especially when they are so similar to mine.

Just wait until your taste buds really start healing and your sense of smell comes back. I was really blown away by some of the smells I had missing for 30 years.
