Friday, January 27, 2012 at 8:30 a.m. I had my last tobacco cigarette. I never imagined that i would be able to say that, but moments later my e-cigarette arrived in the mail I put the Camels down for good. After 25 years of smoking up to 2 packs a day, I was finally free. Today, I felt so good that I even went jogging. That is something that I have not done for decades.

For anyone that is considering e-cigs for the first time, I strongly recommend it.

To chart the path to being tobacco free, I started a blog when I ordered my first e-cig kit. If you are interested in seeing updates and advice, follow me at http://mrelixir.blogspot.com.

Thank you for the support guys. I wish that I had tried these e-cigs a long time ago. I wish you both well in your divorce from tobacco.
