The hardest time?

[Jupiro]

I was just wondering when was/is the hardest time for you to not have an analog? When I finally made the switch over I was thinking of all times where I may not make it with vaping alone. Sitting around the house puffing on a PV like a pacifier is one thing, but something like work is another thing all together.

I have been vaping for 3 weeks now and I have to say I was surprised that everything I thought would be hard, was not. However, when I go fishing I still can’t get over not smoking. I am heavy into fly fishing and fish as much as I can. I used to stand in the river with a smoke in my mouth constantly, and always had to have a smoke after bringing in the big one. I was just out fishing the other day and I still wanted an analog.

So I was wondering, what is or was your hardest time to not have an analog?

Probably in the morning, with my coffee...but found a juice that keeps me vaping.

it was when I was at work and somebody was stressing me out but that went away after a few months

x2 coffee in the morning, but now I vape maple pancake with coffee, It's great!!

I'm only a few days in, but so far the toughest part was not going outside 10-12x/day. It is my few moments away from the kids (I'm a stay at home/work at home mama). I finally realized that I still need to go outside to decompress, it's just that now I vape instead of smoke.

Problem solved.

Ya I found this a bit of an issue myself. I liked it when I was at work and would sneak off for a 5 min brake, and have a smoke where no one could see or find me.

In a pub, between the first and second beers. But that only lasted for the first 2 or 3 times. Since then, no problem at all, despite being surrounded by smoke which, BTW, doesn't cause any cravings the way I was afraid it might.

when my battery drops off and I realize I forgot to charge the others ... and that's usually when my atomizer starts going soft, too. And then my favorite drip tip rolls under the dishwasher, gone for good. Etc. That's when I feel sorry for myself and really miss the simplicity of smoking. But not enough to light one up!

Eeek, hadn't considered fishing yet, I always loved a smoke when fishing but haven't been in the last few weeks so it never crossed my mind. I think I'll need to get a weak or 0 nic juice so I can puff away to my hearts content. The analogues were great for keeping the flies away too, I wonder how well PG/VG will work for that

One huge benefit though will be no more butts, I always hate seeing butts on the river bank so I'd always keep mine in an empty pack which would stink. Also, the chemicals left behind in butts are supposedly lethal to fish, even just a few butts can apparantly pollute a large amount of water, so vaping will be better for us and for the fish too

Crunchy, I still go out, but when I want to not to hide but to chat with all the friends I've made over the years. It's a good way to find out what's going on. I think it's important to still get "away".

It WAS for me first thing in the morning, on my way to work and after a meal..... its hardly noticeable anymore which I find just freakin amazing..!!!

I had to take a whole day to clean out my fishing vest and run it through the washer twice. I found about 2 packs of butts in all my pockets (every time I finnished a smoke I would unzip a pocket and through it in). The big problem is DO NOT drop your PV. I have droped many cigs in the water by accident (picked them up of course), and had to light a new one. If I drop my PV, good by PV.

The exact moment when I decided to use an e-cig system. Don't get me wrong, there are many other times, but for me it was the hardest. Haven't had one since then, week 8 now!

 

[frosting]

For me that 1st week I think after eating was the most difficult. Its defiantly different but just something I've gotten use to. Now, vaping after eating does feel satisfying.

My hardest time is in the morning but I solved with having a tobacco flavor to vape.

You can always get an automatic 510 battery for when you can't use your hands, like when you're fishing. Keeping flies away is a problem. Maybe you can find some citronella e-juice.

I vape coffee with my coffee, maybe its a bit odd, but I never was a traditional breakfast person.

The first one in the AM, the one after eating, the 1/2 pack while driving, the other 1/2 pack stuck in traffic, the last one before bed.......and after over 18 months of vaping and no cigs....none of them...

 

[ChinMullet]

The hardest time for me is when no one is around to keep me honest. I'm sitting in a hotel room all alone at the moment...first time I reserved a non-smoking room in 30 years. It feels so weird. hahah

Also, when I am smoking a cigar. I figure I am going to be stinky anyway, might as well add a cig or two.

Fortunately, I think cigs taste like a cat's ... now. Unfortunately, I think cigars do too, since quitting cigs. I have quite a collection of excellent/expensive cigars that I may have to give away.

When my batteries are dead... LOL
