Hey guys...
A little about me... Brian, 35, live in Texas (DFW area), divorced, 2 teenage girls, and a smoker... I smoked off and on during my teens and early/mid 20's, but not anything that could classify as "a pack a day" or anything like that... I smoked at bars when out with the fellas, parties, etc. I was a social smoker at best. Then... I got divorced... and up until recently was about a 1.5+ pk a day man... that is until i discovered the wonderful world of vaping...
A couple years ago I tried the whole e-cig thing and after spending about $200 on a setup, I lost interest as it was never satisfying me... fast forward to the past couple weeks... determined whatever I needed to do to quit smoking, it had to be done, no more excuses.
I started reading and found some info on e-cigs that was quite interesting. I read that a study showed that a person who was trying to quit smoking by using an e-cig that "looked" like an regular cig was less than 17% likely to quit... HOWEVER... it showed that if a person was to get equipment that looked nothing like a cig (everything to do with vaping, ie. silver bullet, vmax, provari, box mods, tanks, etc.), their chances of quitting greatly increased to over 51%. They determined that rather than just "trying to quit smoking", they just changed habits to vaping. Which ironically is what has happened to me. I went to a vape shop around me and starting asking questions and looking at different things. I settled on a Ego Twist, tank, some tobacco flavored juice, and then some fruity juice... Well after a few days of using the tobacco juice I quickly realized that I didn't want the tobacco flavor at all and have settled into the other juices... I figured my issue was the tobacco juice was where I went wrong the last time as it wasn't "cuttin the mustard"... So therefor if I want a tobacco flavor, I'll smoke a cig... Which equated to me smoking less than 10 cigs a day last week. This week I haven't even finished a pack so far. AND when I do I find it hard to even finish one completely. I imagine I will be done with them altogether in the next couple weeks.
Needless to say... my girlfriend has taken notice and now wants in on the action... So yesterday I ordered a silver bullet setup with a kick (as I'm looking for something to fit better in my hands), and she wants the twist... LOL
I think that's prolly enough for now...
