Well folks that's 6 mths since we gave up the fags and started Vaping, not as long as a lot of peep's here, but a miracle for my wife and I.
We had never managed to stop smoking despite numerous attempts over the years, we tried all the NRT crap, even joined a support group at our local chemists who provided patches free whilst monitoring your progress. Again it failed . Going from 35 fags a day 6 mth ago, to my usual diy mix of 6 mg Nic is nothing short of amasing.
So a big thanks to all the folk that have shared their technical experience to the benefit of everyone, and our resident bargain hunters that have saved us a few bob along the way, oh and not forgetting all the mods who give their time to make this forum as good as it is.
Roll on the next 6 mths to the first anniversary.

It is amazing isn't it, I am a month ahead of you and it has flown by (I think that is an age thing though ) long may it continue but I must say I have only thought of stinkies a couple of times and that is only when I get a waft when out and about, sometimes get a small craving but mostly at the smell. Here's to the next 6 months and getting the first year under our belts

Cheers all, we seem to have been lucky or maybe it was the way i reduced our nic intake at first where we started at 18mg,( neither of us had cravings) slowly reducing to 10 a month or so ago, but that for me has been thrown off course by finding lung hits and needing to reduce down to 6mg with drippers and sub ohming.
On wards and upwards as they say.

car147 ... it can be a bit 'gob smacking' for some as to how easy it is... it was for me. Was watching 'The Hotel' on telly an hour or so ago, and a guest there was happily vaping away... it will be the norm soon.

Thanks all, the real game changer is we never have any craving's for tobacco,( the first day was strange switching over, but other than that all good) this was never the case with NRT Where we were always just kidding ourselves, and any crisis or excuse and we were back on the stinkies.
And as a bonus, now being down to 6mg the Nic base goes a lot further as well. Win.win on the diy mixing!
