Don't know if anyone remembers me but I am the frantic flute player that found this forum last year (Sept 2010) and inundated you all with questions. I was here regularly for about 3-4 months and then faded away. But I did NOT fade back into smoking! Instead, I'm here to proudly announce it has now been a little over one year that I have been smoke free! WOOT!! ::::::throws confetti up in the air:::::::::

In fact, I rarely even use the ecig anymore. Maybe a handful of times a month at best and it's with 0 nic in a white zinfadel flavor (so you can tell when it is I smoke it, it's when I am having a glass of white zinfadel wine)! Not because it doesn't work or anything but because it works THAT GOOD that it brought me to the point that I do not desire to smoke AT ALL. That's the most amazing thing about it is that I do not at ALL, not even one IOTA have any cravings, nigglings, nudges, or desires to smoke. It's so foreign to me now I can't imagine ever doing so again. It's so weird how it never even OCCURS to me to think about smoking. I'm just THAT done with it.

So YAAA MEEE!!! And YAAA to all of YOU who are on this journey. I'm here to tell you IT CAN HAPPEN! IT DOES WORK! The combination of the ecig and this forum is what did it for me. Don't hesitate to lean on the good folks here because they are the best. I peppered questions all over this forum during that time and there was always someone (usually several people) there answering my questions quickly and with support and encouragement. THANK YOU GUYS!!!!

Hi Trice,

Ohhhh...that is a good question. I am beginning week 3 of my venture into vaping and I was not a heavy smoker either (3-5 cigs a day). I quit all analogs (regular cigs) almost within a few days of vaping. It does seem I vape more than I smoke but I heard that's because you are getting far less nicotine on a vape than on a cig. 3 drops of juice on an ecig gives you about 10-15 drags which is still about 1/2 (or less) the nicotine you'd get in 10-15 drags on an analog.

But it's sooooo much more fun.

And, like you, I initially wanted an ecig that "looked" like a real cig....I got over that real fast and went right with the eGo and haven't looked back. It rocks in every way.

Hi there!

I'm still new to vaping (going into my 3rd week now) but from what I have seen all over this board, EVERYONE does it a little bit differently. For me, I BEGAN with smoking about 3-5 analogs a day. But I wanted to get it down to ONLY 2 every day (one with coffee in the morning and one after dinner at night). I was getting tripped up during the day when I would get on phone calls. I wanted the ecig to use during those phone calls. I never intended to quit smoking all together. I love it too much.

But without even trying, that's exactly what happened. (still freaks me out). I have not had an analog in 2 weeks now. I tried one last week and OMG I sputtered and choked it was so nasty. Threw the rest away.

However, that's but just one outcome. I have seen plenty of others on this board who have smoked for many years, sometimes 2-3 packs a day who have now cut down to 5 or so a day and they are just fine with that. Some quit analogs all together but use vaping at the same nic strength as when they smoked. Some have managed to get their nic down to 0 and STILL vape because it's just fun. (that's where I want to get to now).

I think rather than thinking of it as a "smoking cessation" product, thinking of it as a "smoking REPLACEMENT" product makes more sense. Smoking cessation has one goal: quit smoking. Smoking replacement has so many more options and variations available to you, therefore, more chance of "success" because YOU are in control of what the goal is.

The bottom line is about what YOU want to achieve, not what you think you are "supposed" to achieve by vaping. That's freedom!

1. I work out regularly doing Yoga and Pilate's. How odd but how freakishly cool it was today to finish a workout and sit down and vape a bit before hitting the shower.

2. My 11 year old daughter came home from school today and just came over and gave me a huge hug and said "Mom, I am sooooooo proud of you. If you can just keep doing this vaping thing and never have a cigarette again, that would be totally alright by me." (I'm on day 12 of no analogs today).

3. Tonight after dinner I took my last 1/2 pack of cigs I had left and ceremoniously threw them in the garbage witnessed by my husband and my 2 girls (11, 17).


Life. Is. Gooooood.
