Two years ago this month I got my first e-cg, and have never looked back. Never smoked a normal one again.
started e-cig two years ago

Right now I'm still pretty basic, seems the vaping world changed quickly while I was not paying attention. I'm still using a LCDego mega with a ce4 or "stardust" asI've recently been reading. But have my eye on the GP Spheroid. Would really like to get my hands on one, as it seems like it would last a long time with easy repairs. However not sure how to get one yet. It's funny, most people in AK. don't know about e-cigs, and the few that do, are buying that gas station crap. They have no idea what it is I'm smoking, and I end up explaning a lot. Even got my doctor to try it on one visit. lol
Not sure what you said, LOL, but thanks for replying about your set-up, I will look some of that up, especially since you have been so wonderfully successful, again CONGRATS and wishing you continued success!
So you don't have any side effects? I didn't mean bad thing, just as newbie because I just order starter kit to stop analog.

I assume you are talking about cigarette withdrawal or are you asking about ecig side effects?
Most people who quit using ecigs do just fine with the withdrawal from tobacco as long as they use ejuice with enough nicotine to satisfy the desire for cigarettes. 18mg to 24mg is usually enough to balance the cravings. Those who cut down to just a few cigs a day for a while and then cut those out seem to have to smoothest transition. Lots of us almost quit the first week or so of vaping and then quit those last few later. For me it was easier that way. It gave me a chance to compare vaping and smoking side by side and discover that vaping beat smoking hands down.

<<--Same as DaveP. I did the teetering thing for about a week until my analog supply ran out then took the plunge, not really expecting it to last (but hoping). Three weeks now and it was a pretty smooth transition. I DO have a rather large assortment for a newb though and that helped.......variety (and this forum especially) kept it interesting. Thanks Veteran Vapers....!!
**Sorry.......CONGRATS Mrs Hughes. Wonderful accomplishment. Where did I put my manners????

I also did it this way. I cut down to a few analogs a day, then finally just tossed them. I think what finally did it for
me, is that I use menthol - but I add fruit flavorings. When I started adding the fruit flavorings, it just wiped the analogs
off the map. Now I'm on to new flavors and more fun, and I have not had a bad transition at all.
actually, I didn't have any withdrawls surprisingly, and I'd been smoking since the age of 17, when I went into the Airforce.
In all honesty I wasn't really trying to quit. I'm a bit of a rebel. I moved to Alaska right after Washington state passed a law saying you had to smoke outside, and within so many feet away from a building. I use to order my cigs.
When Alaska passed the same outside law and also made the recieving by mail illegal, and the price for a pack of cigs up here, is almost $10, I knew for my husband's financial sake, I needed to find a cheaper alernative. I thought they were crazy when they passed the smoke outside law here. When I first moved here, and tried to smoke outside, because my then boyfriend ( now husband) had kids I just about passed out, in the below freezing weather. So I smoked inside next to a window fan only in the bedroom. To cold to smoke outside. When they made it a law, I looked for the best way to work around it.
Ecigs were like having my cake and eating it too. Not only could I smoke inside ( at doctors, hospitals, resturants and such, but also was saving a ton of money. So it was never about wanting to quit for me. It had more to do with not liking being told what I can or can't do.
Even now I have no intentions of quitting nicotine. Oh and patches and such, I'm alergic to the glue ( same with band-aides). Plue I didn't want nicotine coursing through me all the time. I wanted it when I wanted it. I also didn't get a huge weight gain, since I was still getting the nicotine, satisfying the hand mouth bit, and if stressed, can have as much as I like.
So for me, it was more about having what I want, when I want, and where I want. I know that sounds terrible, but it's the truth.
