I quit three weeks ago and haven't looked back since. I used a cheapie e-cig the green smart living and I am anxiously awaiting my new Ego CE4 to come in the mail so I can do some real vaping. I find myself sucking manically at my green smart living cig to get more vapor so I am excited to try a more powerful and potent model. Good Luck with everything, wishing you all the best in this new journey.

I have been off analogs for 2 weeks today. The first time I picked up a pv I still had half a pack of cigarettes left and by the end of the day I threw them in the trash. I have been perfectly content with the vap instead of the smoke! I have a feeling if you want to quit you will and this is the easiest quit I have ever experienced. Good Luck!

I have tried mall version vapes in the past, and was unsuccessful at quitting analogs. 3 years later I decided to search the internet for improvements made to e-cigs and came across this forum. I decided to take the plunge and order the Provari Mini. The price was a gamble, but 3 months later...I have not even wanted a drag of an analog cigarette. The Provari was love at first vape. I never want to be that stinky, bad breathe, tired, analog smoker ever again. (this coming from the person who smoked a pack a day for 16 years...total years smoking = 21 years. And I called cigarettes "my best friend", "my security blanket". My Provari easily replaced them). Amazing!

I called my cigarettes my constant friend. I have a new constant friend now. :)
 
I'm just wondering how many of you all quit analogs once they got their first e cig/pv? I've tried my friends' ecigs and am getting my first one in the mail tomorrow. Hoping I can get off analogs right away, maybe input could give me motivation for that? Plus I'm simply curious.

I bought my first one 5 days ago, and have not had a cigarette since. Next to no cravings. Now it's only been 5 days, but it was easy for me. And I'm not a casual smoker. Been smoking a pack a day for 38 years, since I was 13 yrs old. And with all the BS taxes and federal laws recently to keep us from buying cigs online, I've been buying tax free filtered cigars, and smoking them like cigarettes for the last 2 years, they are 100's, full flavor, and I smoked the whole thing. I didn't even plan on getting the Ecig until the day I bought it on an impulse after I saw a couple of guys at work using them-I still got the open pack I was on that day, and two cartons in the freezer. I just did it, without thinking about it. I did start out on 24 mg nicotine level, and have no plans currently to go down, why risk relapse-and that's what it is when you go back to smoking. We are like ...... addicts on methadone maintenance-smoking is potentially as deadly as shooting ......, and vaping for nicotine addiction is like taking methadone to treat opiate addiction-exactly like it, and I am intimately familiar with both now, and they have both done wonders for me. My lifelong best friend died of lung cancer last June-we started smoking together when we were 13. Just do it, the potential benefits far outweigh the risk of wasting a hundred bucks.
