Think I stopped

[fishmow]

I had smoked most of my life starting as a teen. I have tried MANY ways to quit but never stuck with it. I simply like smoking. Pipes, Cigarettes, some Cigars. But I also wanted to quit too. I know the bad side, and see it as a Firefighter/Paramedic as well. Also I am studying to be a Naturopath. How contradictory can that be?

I tried eCigs about a year back, no good at all!!

Then on a whim, I stopped at a new Vap store. I ended up buying a set up call Seego GHIT. I also got some extra tanks and coils because I like extras no matter what I do. Their juice is ok... but I found Organic options on the web... WOW... this vaping thing is awesome... I never knew there were so many differences, and equipment.


Point is.... I have stopped smoking tobacco, even at my worst trigger, the Firehouse. I am feeling much better. I now hate the smell of cigs, but don't get on my friends as I was one. They are actually inspired to try this too!

My Nicotine is now very low. So I get that nice smoking feel, without the bad effects. My wife is very pleased as well.. I am pretty sure I will venture into better equipment at some point. Anybody who thinks this may work... I say give it a try.

My 2 cents is all

Good job! I am only a little over a month without cigarettes but that is a minor miracle considering I smoked over 40 years and tried other things through the years like patches and nicotine gum. I used to be a vol. Firefighter and even used the excuse that firefighters that smoked were more likely to survive smoke inhalation, that ex-smokers went through their air tanks quicker, all kinds of things, you can use just about anything to justify it but I am so excited to be a non-smoker for once in my life! Glad you made the leap as well and good luck to you and to your career.

It is amazing how easy it is to give up cigarettes via vaping. Congrats to you Fishmoy! Keep us posted on how you're doing and how you progress through your journey, there's so much more to come

Congrats on making the switch

By the looks of your skill set and occupation(s), we need you to stick around for a long time (I'm sure us old farts are all going to need a paramedic, firefighter, or naturopath at some point in the future), so thanks for that.

Congratulations, Fishmov! Yep, of all the methods I tried (all of them), this was the one that actually worked for me. And my mom, three cousins, a cousin by marriage, several acquaintances, one lady I met in the grocery store and occasionally run into...

The running joke is that I should have a plaque on my office door, "Now Saving Smoker #:" At this point, I'd need a nice little 9 to hang there.

One more and I get the toaster oven.

Vaping is Definitely a Gateway... To a healthier and hobby filled life! I got into this and thought it was gonna just help me quit, now Im taking it too all sorts of new levels I never thought I'd be interested in! Congrats on the switch, Bet your buddies at the fire house are happier as well that you've quit!

Woohoo!
