Stopped completely on May 2nd, and haven't looked back!
Was a smoker for 25 years! Wish we had these sooner!

Quit after i noticed my ashtray had a half a pack of cigs with one or two drags off them. I gave up, smoking was nasty!
Stopped since mid April 2009 after 40 blasted years of smoking. Tried a real cigarette last week: didn't care for it anymore. I have lost all urge for them.
I quit on Jan 1, picked up my first e-cig a couple weeks later.... have spent too much money and time on the stuff... but I don't regret it in the slightest.
So far, so good for me...haven't even taken a puff since May 13=) after 20+ years.
After 35 years of smoking, I have been smoke free for over a year now. All thanks to the e cig, and very little willpower.

never thought i would be free but now 5 months in i vape 24 mg about 1- 1.5mg a day and i aint ever goin back i am a different person pack a day for 25 years
Momma didn't raise no quitter so I just transferred my addiction to my PV a week and a half ago.
Smoked for 45 years, knew I had to quit. Went online ordered the first device I saw. After two weeks of a learning and adapting period I can gleefully say I have not had one puff for four months now. Was it hard? YES! I consider it to be one of my greatest accomplishments.
I guess I'm an accidental quitter too. Not because I didn't want to, but I really didn't believe there was anything out there that would actually help me stop my 35 year/pack a day habit. I had tried everything else; gum, patches, zyban and none of those came close to helping.
I got my first e-cig on April 27, it was a analog look-alike and not very dependable, so I didn't totally quit. After doing some research and quite a bit of reading on this board, I ponied up the money for an SD and haven't had an analog in over 2 weeks. I did try a few puffs off one of my old ciggies about a week ago, but it tasted so nasty I put it out after a couple of drags. Blagh, I can't believe a thought those tasted good a month ago!
I'm so grateful that I heard about e-cigs (it was on some talk-radio show that I just happened to surf onto) and then I googled onto this forum and found a wealth of information to sort through until I found what works for me.
I do think of myself as a non-smoker now and have told many smoking friends about e-cigs. I do believe my son is getting ready to jump on the bandwagon--he has asked me lots of questions including what websites to check. I hope so--I feel guilty that he smokes because I think that maybe he started because he had always seen me smoke. Aw, the things we moms feel guilty about.
All I can say at the end of the day is that I'm very happy not to be smoking smelly, messy, dangerous analogs. If I vape for the rest of my life, I'm perfectly okay with that. It simply has to be less hazardous than analogs. I know I feel better, my nose works again (a mixed blessing, that!), don't stink anymore and don't have to walk the 'green mile' to go outside to the smoking area.

Ordered an e-cig because of the "I gotta have that" cool factor. I was a pack-a-day smoker for 20 years and had no intention of quitting. A little over a week after starting to use the e-cig, I gave away the rest of my analogs. Last cigarette for me was May 23rd, 2009 at 10:00pm. I still have the occasional small craving for an analog, but it goes away quickly after a tasty vape of some yummy nicquid. The "I need a cigarette" triggers are fading day by day, and I'm down to 11mg from 18mg juice.
Thanks to everybody on here for the great information, tips, tricks, reviews, and support.

Haven't had one since my DSE801 arrived two weeks ago. No desire to have one nor to even have a pack on hand for "emergencies."
2 1/2 days... thought about analogs two or three times... but not too hard.... i think im in good shape.
I stopped on April 10th and haven't had one since.
Was smoking 60+ cigarettes a day during the week and even more than that on the weekends.
Smoked for 1 week while vaping and that was it.
I also only vape at night when I'm at home on my pc now.

Recieved my first e-cig on April 22 2009. Had 2 analogs the first day and haven't had one since. I smoked for 42 years.
i only had my e-cig for a little over a week and i didnt smoke. didnt even have a desire to.
unfortunetly i think my charger killed my batteries, and since im new i didnt have a back up. had to buy some analogs today, and let me tell you, they taste Bad to me now. amazing just after a week.
i was a 2 pack a day smoker too (unfiltered if i could get em, smoked alot of roll your own too), love my damn ecig already. *starts crying*
