Smoke free starting today

[JFizzleSizzle]

Ive smoked almost 12 years, but promised my fiancee Id be smoke free by our wedding. I was having a hard time with the gums, patches etc but recently found out about ecigs from a guy at the bar. He had Blu's but luckily I found this forum and was steered in the right direction. I made my first order last thursday and the package showed up today. I am amazed at these little sticks. So long foul smoke stench, freezing outside and complainers! Thanks to this forum for all the info.

P.S. First lesson Ive learned so far is that even though I smoked 1.5 pack/day, 24mg is potent stuff. Feel like im behind the liquor store after school again lol

Ha. Cute description. I remember when I first started I felt the same way....24mg IS potent stuff. I use 18mg and 12mg now. These little things can change your life....they sure changed mine. Good luck! What did you end up buying?

Well I am hoping to join you soon, just as soon as we get the basics figured out.

I'm pretty much right there with you.. except, it's not the cold I'm avoiding.. it's roasting in the sun haha.

I still haven't managed to quit analogs completely, but I am down to less than 5 per day, most days I only have 1 or 2 (usually always have one in the am with my coffee). I guess it doesn't help to have other smokers around me all the time, but I think 1-5 a day down from 2+ packs a day is a great start.

Best thing I can say is to keep at it. My wife is much happier now that I've cut down so much, and very soon I'll cut analogs out for good.

@JCnewbie Im for sure trying some 18 next order. I decided on V4L XL manual batts to start because im on the go a lot and cartos just seem easier for now. Very impressed with shipping time to los angeles as well.

@Barely & cjh Good luck! Im sure we'll all need a little in this journey

Hi JFS,
I am on day no.10, no analogs at all and I've smoked for over 25 years w/o any brake. Yes, you must control nicotine intake. I had to cut all my 18mg ejuices in half, but even this is a bit too much, as I vape a lot. It should taper off with time, but now I am really enjoying all different flavours and still trying to find the ones I like. Good luck to you, you will be analog free soon!

 

[JFizzleSizzle]

Congrats wingman and thanks for the advice. Figure Ill order some 12mg cartos and keep these 24's for those "special" times.

Yea you don't think 24ml is that bad but I did the same thing JC did started their and backed down to 18, and now 12.

I smoked for almost 40 years, tried the patch, gum, pills, but this was the easiest thing I have ever done, you just have to find right juice flavor and nic level.
Good luck and welcome.

Welcome to ECF and best of luck. Now throw in some incentive and start asking for a few things when you reach a week, month etc. Use the quiting think to your advantage.

Congrats... Hang in there and keep the faith....
