Hello from a Shocked Newbie in Devon

[dinks]

good evening all - just signed up and thought this is a good place to start.  I've just been vaping for 2 weeks now and yesterday was my first totally smoke free day in my whole adult life (haven't counted the years but a lot!).  It actually shocked me to think back and realise that there isn't a single day I haven't smoked until yesterday...no illness, not even tonsillitis could keep me off them!  I used to smoke approx 20-25 rollies a day.

A trip to the dentist 2 weeks ago scared the life out of me when he said that I could carry on burying my head in the sand if I wanted but that I would lose my teeth if I did, due to receding gums.  Now being the vain old mare that I am, it was the catalyst I needed to finally give me the boot to get off the smokes.  

I ordered a vv Kanger and haven't looked back since.  Reducing right down to 1 ciggie a day until I finally packed them in yesterday.  Can't say I miss them much right now, which for me is nothing short of a miracle - again shocked!  I thought I'd be chewing my knuckles off by now.  So I am now an absolute vaping zealot and boring my husband no end with facts, figures and thrusting new flavours at him to try...just don't tell him how much I've spent on equipment and juice....he thinks this is saving money!  good job he's away on business for a while: means I can sneak a few new orders in.

ok, wine o'clock (with a side of Cosmic Fog's Church I reckon...)

Welcome dinks, it's good intit, I still can't believe how good vaping is and say out loud to myself "dam that's good" a few times every day, there is no way I would have lasted off the fags this long with out it.

[Pepperty]

Welcome dinks and 'snap!' I too couldn't believe I could quit and managed to light up through many a serious illness, so its a complete revelation to find that vaping works (if like me you'de tried all other options) Congratulations

and I am now a vape bore, I polish and clean my vaping gear far more enthusiastically than my efforts as a housewife... and I also lie about my spending ---- but regardless its a fraction of teh expense of smoking
