Smoking an analog

[jennlsnoopy]

So after a month and a half me and my husband decided to try an analog tonight. At first it wasn't too bad. It felt very light to hold and it was strong tasting. It reminded me of when I first started smoking in highschool. After about 5 or 6 drags it started to make me sick. My husband agreed and we put them out. I now feel kinda stinky and gross. Yuck! Anyway, I am so glad to have my e-cig, I would have never imagined how gross an analog could be. 8-o Has anyone else tried this? Did you think that smoking an analog was gross or tasted bad.? I think I can still taste it.

yeah i smoked one today, it wasnt too bad because i have my analogs in a bag with menthol crystals and its in a box so theyre still pretty fresh. it does taste kinda gross, but its a taste that i miss. oh well, i broke the months of not smoking.

Yeah, I have done this after 3 weeks and posted about it here http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/40918-test.html it's a really freaky experience that was an eye opener for me.

I'd like to think that I'll never try another analog again...but I know that curiosity will get the better of me. Especially with the "reviews" of people who have tried them again. It sounds crazy, but I'm most curious to re-taste it simply so see if it really does taste as bad as described. I honestly cannot remember what it tasted like when I FIRST started smoking. I must admit though, I have read a few posts about people having to re-wean themselves off of analogs....I'm scared poopless of that....

After two months I tried to smoke analogs, it was awful but a good experience for the lasting memory of how awful it was... I think if I really tried my body could get use to smoking analogs again and it would have me in it's grips just as it did before in a short amount of time... So no, not worth messing with a good thing of being analog free,, especially since there is no mental or physical craving for them....

After only a day or two of not smoking then having one, all I could taste was chemicals, was hard to even smoke half of a cig. Had both my attys die on me so I went back to smoking and got a carton and let me say vapping tastes so so much better then smoking. It's hard to believe that I smoked for half my life and didn't hate it.

I'm a very obsessive person, it's all or nothing for me so I know if I even had one analog I would be back on them. After 7 months with my e-cig i'm not prepared to take that chance.

thank GOD for the ecig and WILL POWER To stay off analogs.

Hey doots, is that a picture of someone corrupting JenJen's kittycat? Poor li'l thang.

 

[cmdrmaxwell]

None for me since aug 22. I don't even think about them any more.

I still smoke 2-3 a day, but ya since starting to use my 510 they leave a lot to be desired. Yet, they do resolve something for me. Think I need to get a higher nic juice. Because the times I smoke a cig now are when I really need it like first thing, after work, after dinner.

For me, I have zero urge to start smoking again. I haven't had one since I started my counter and do not feel the need to try them again. Besides, I would hate to have to start that darn counter over again

I may have been one of those you have read about. I decided to do http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/40918-test.html one day and it wasn't hard to put the thing out immediately. You know yourself best though so if you think it's a bad idea to tempt fate then by all means don't.

Started vaping and had not smoked an analog for 2 weeks. Went out with my wife and had a few drinks. OK, more than a few. She was smoking and for some reason (alcohol), I thought I would make it the last hoorah for me and cigs after 35 years. Bad idea. Chain smoked four in a row. I was sicker than a dog that night and half the next day. Never again. The thought of them now makes me want to hurl. It was the smartest stupid thing I have ever done.

Wonderfully put.

I've had a few analogs along the way (1 or 2 a month) and all they do is remind me how great it is to not have to smoke them and that I actually prefer vaping. I do love tobacco though but I've managed to keep that down to just a few cigars this year and maybe a handful of bowls (pipe) which I still enjoy very much.

Heh, I found this funny because this is the same exact thing that happened to me the other night and I also started vaping 2 weeks ago.

Well I decided to try an analog again as well after just 3 days of not having one. I just took 2 hits off of my girlfriends. The first tasted disgusting, and just put me off like did I really enjoy that. I couldn't really believe it so I had to take another hit. It just got worst and I gave it back too her, I was like screw that. The funny thing is now that I have my 510 working properly, atty broke in with a straw mod, it hits harder than any cigarette I have hit before. I remember my first cigarette, it was out in the woods with a friend. I remember it about choked me too death, guess that covered the bad taste lol. One of the free things in life that costed me dearly. I don't see how people can go back to an analog after adjusting to the e-cigarette. If you use a high enough nic juice, it will give you a better hit than any analog. Then you have all the wonderful flavors that are available. I would hate to go back to analogs, as much nicotine I'm getting now I would probably be smoking 2-3 packs a day just to keep up with what I'm getting now.

To add to my original post of trying a few drags of an analog after a month and a half, I have to say I'm am so glad I tried it. I only tried it out of curiosity and not because of any craving that I had. Now I know that there is no possible way I would have a craving now. Yuck! That taste still haunts me. I have to say again....I LOVE MY PV!!!!!
