Disgusted with myself So I quit smoking 4-ish weeks ago and have been vaping ever since, and throughout those 4 weeks I've noticed my health and senses getting better, I breath better, food tastes better, I sleep better, I don't cough up a lung when I wake up in a morning, my teeth are already getting whiter and feel cleaner than they use too. Now my sense of smell has been returning to me the last few days and today I got on the bus to come home, sat near the back after finding an empty seat and the people around me stunk to high heaven of tobacco smoke, I could smell it, it hit me right in the face and it was disgusting. In all the years I've been a smoker a few people have on occasion told me that I smell of smoke but obviously being a smoker I couldn't really smell it myself and I honestly believed that it was mainly just because I had just finished a cigarette and told myself that the smell would go away after a few minutes. But now I realise I was wrong and just how bad that smell of a smoker really is..its disgusting and I feel so ashamed of myself knowing that I smelt like THAT for so many years Have any of you ex-smokers noticed the same thing? After smelling those people today I'm never ever touching another cigarette again, I can't believe I use to smell like that. I'm sorry to everyone who had to put up with my stink all those years

A few weeks ago I was walking up the road and a woman several feet in front of me lit up a cigarette and the smell wafted back to me. She stopped in the street so I had to pass her and I actually started to feel nauseaus the closer I got to her, and as I passed her the stench hit me real bad, arrgh it was horrible. I couldn't pass quick enough to get some fresh air into my lungs again. Yeah, we all smelt like that before we started vaping - terrible to think how smelly we used to be eh

Since I packed in the stinkies my sense of smell is now like that of a sniffer dog at the airport! Boy Oh Boy my home-made curries are hot! .My taste buds must have woke up too.I have completely re-decorated, ceilings re-painted,walls,skirting boards,doors. Anything that was washable got shoved through the washer or scoured by hand. Lovely and fresh it is at home, with the fragrances of my mixes steeping away : Red Astaire,Mocha,Coffee cheesecake.......etc etc

I bought all the cleaning products and air fresheners today and I have a hand held steam cleaner on its way from Ebay Here's to a clean, healthy, lemony fresh future lol.

I have to go into the homes of people who smoke and I can smell it on myself when I leave; it's not nice and I totally agree with you amygx, when I smoked I had no idea how bad I smelled. I don't like the smell of fresh smoke anymore which is strange because whenever I've stopped, in the past, I've been an avid passive smoker. I reckon that means that I have now properly quit and am an ex-smoker!
