Wow, that is a victory! I'm certainly not there yet. I feel naked without my ecig. But then again it's only been 6 months

Yeah... It didn't happen within the First Year of vaping for me. More like at 18 Months or so.

I find that if I have to I can do without my ecig for a while where as with cigarettes there was no way. Probably all the addicting crap they put in cigarettes.

If I'm Busy doing something like working in the Yard/Project, or running errands or at someone's house, I can go Long Stretches without think about Vaping.

It's when I working on the Computer or Bored with nothing to do that I tend to Chain Vape.

I went 3 days without my vape.
Didn't like it, but I did it because only other option was to bum a cig from my brother, who graciously offered.
I am determined not to go back to smoking!
WARNING
Kids don't try this at home

Isn't it interesting how smokers love to see you fall off the wagon?

The biggest victory I can think of, is that I haven't smoked a cigarette, or even had a drag off of one from temptation since January 10th, 2014. Recently hit 3 years since I've had that nasty stuff in my system and I'm rather happy to say it's in my past now. A smaller victory, that may not be as appealing to others, but finally is to me, is that I've actually strayed away from the hobby behind vaping. For a long time, I'd constantly be upgrading my setup, testing hundreds of different juices and truthfully, wasting money on things I didn't really need, just for the exploration of it.

I'm at the point now, where I buy a new setup every year, sometimes twice a year if there's a big enough advancement in something, and I use that and only that. I've also found two juices that are low cost, remind of the boldness of a cigarette, and for 2 years now I've not grown tired of.

To keep it short, I'm at the point now where vaping is just there in my life in the background, and it isn't something I really focus on anymore. Cigarettes were always in focus, due to health worries, and vaping was in focus when it was a hobby and now I just feel relaxed with it. Most of my effort into vaping now, just goes back into helping others start up how I did, only skipping a few mistakes I made with costs :)

Congratz on 6 months analog free & the nic reduction ChelsB! Pretty impressive, you're a winner! :D

I guess for me, it would be... All stocked up for whatever may come & no vape purchases since November 2016... :cool:

Thanks very much, I appreciate it!
And congrats on getting all stocked up!

Looks like we both quit the analogs around the same time Chels! I didn't realize it was my 6 month anniversary but my small victory is:

I only placed 2 orders with FastTech yesterday then I finally quit looking. :shock:

Yay for both of us!
My heartfelt congratulations to you!
