What did it take (or how long) for you to swear your loyalty to vaping?

about 3 weeks before I started vaping. (I had a lot of hick-up during my first order, so took about 3 long-long weeks to get start vaping.)

I really wanted quit smoking. I set my mind on e-cig and even this isn't working - then I'll just go cold turkey.

And.. I'm loving it. :D Mentally, I'm feeling much more liberated from all those berating ads that anti-smoking try to make smokers in such irresponsible parents/person. It's like giving them a big middle finger. I was fed up with their moral superiority they think they have over smokers.

I started in the start of march. e-cigs and no reg cigs. I smell better and feel better. for the last 14 years I have gotten a headaches almost every day. I thought it was stress but since i started to vap only 3 headaches.i starterd with a mini-e-cig, got a 901 and am waiting for my Kissbox. i hope that the FDA leaves it alone and lets me and others keep on doing.i even have made a facebook page for e-smokers of MN. the facebook page is on the lame side right now, but will get better.I am so glad that vaping is real.

I knew it was an alternative when I first vaped. I went back to smoking analogs because i wanted comfort, this did not appear so have gone whole heartedly into ecigs. I am much better for it. I don't smell. I can breathe and when I get a vaping solution organized( spares) will be far better off financially.

as soon as my grandson was born, i knew i had to find a way to quit smoking - no way was i going to be known as "stinkie nanna" nor did i want to take a chance of any harm coming to him due to my habit. (i had already tried the gum=ick , patches=nitemares & chantix=niteterrors - awful experiences.
i found a link on electronic cigarettes surfing and ordered a kit - the day it arrived i quit my 25 year habit and have not looked back. so there ya go, thats my story and i am stickin to it.

I started last summer, after seeing a Gamucci on Gizmodo. It had just enough info about it to press my geek button. So, of course, I researched it obsessively for a couple of weeks, figuring out which to try etc. I took the plunge with a Puresmoker setup and after getting it found myself picking up my pack less and less and the PV more and more. The gaming thing really converted me... it seemed to fit... a couple puffs between bouts of activity, and never having to re-light it.

About November, I moved and all my stuff got scattered among moving boxes (man if I ever have to move again... I *need* to keep more organized). Being a guy, unpacking got real slow and I went back to analogs for a couple months while I visited family and got things settled. Ugh. I felt sluggish all around, just... bad. So I restocked some supplies and got back on the e-wagon in January, and have been much happier since. That's about when I stopped just lurking as well...lol.

A friend told me about e-cigs about two months ago, and I put it on the back burner.

Having smokes for 46 years, I thought I could never quit after countless attempts.

She directed me to this site, and I ordered the Vapor King, received it last Wednesday, and haven't had a cigarette since......No withdrawal, no problem.

I bought an e-cig in hopes of "cutting back." I never dreamed that I would be hooked from day one and no longer want a nasty analog!

I was smoke free for about 2 weeks then had some equipment malfunctions and went back to analogs. I ordered a bunch of new equipment and have put down the analogs again.... but did carry a few with me on vacation... just in case.

Should have some more packages waiting for me when I return home.

Yep, I am hooked.

Oh, for some reason my smoke free image stays at zero money saved and that is probably a good thing because Vapin has cost me way more than analogs. It should be noted that I am sort of OCD though on some things and "Vapin" became one of those things so I have been on spending sprees to make sure I never run out! LOL

I really like vaping but the batts, atomizers, etc. are a pain.

Analogs just work so much better. Set it on fire and go :rolleyes:

I couldn't agree more!

However... vaping (discreetly) on the flight was totally awesome. No more running outside to get that last puff.

Night flight back should be even better. :D
