Batdragon, Thankyou for the link. Honestly I still can't get over vaping. I can't sleep thinking about it! I never ever thought there would be anyone or anything that could stop me from reaching out for a cigarette!

Two weeks and one day for me since I've started vaping and in my second week I look at smokers and feel sorry for them. ! Am I dreaming? have I really not smoked for 2 weeks? Somebody pinch me

It is great isnt it Dream, I went from 60 a day to 0 and have not looked back since (ok the odd one or two quick glances over the shoulder). It is now 2 months and 2 weeks since I stoped smoking, and I never want to go back to it.

Not too impressed with mr hilary lately, seen him on tele this week in Spain probobly, jesus get a life, any how, he was interviewing peeps on holiday, kids mainly and saying to them, Oh you might want to get that looked at etc. I would have thought a quiet word to the parents might be more applicable rather than telling the child on national television that they might have some seriouse disease, still what do i know.

Batty did you go from 60 a day to nothing, or did you cut down during the first few days or weeks?

Personally I would not be safe without havening a pack of the shit-sticks in my cupboard.

if you went from 60 to zero that’s just incredible, and well done, your certainly put me to shame.

I did Trevor, My baccy ran out that evening, and I started on the vaping that night, and not had a single puff on a analogue one since. I even gave away my papers and filters to a friend who smoked. I did have a safety net so to speak in that I have two corner shops literally 5 min walk in either direction which are both open late and sell baccy or if really desperate there is an all night petrol station about 10 Min's walk away that also sells it.

I will be honest in that the first few days were hell, and was very tempted to walk around to them, but on my side was the weather being bad, and I didn't want to go out. A few vapes later and that feeling went enough to make me not want to go out.

One of the tricks I use is that I have a few bottles of 555 (State Express) juice at 36mg, so if I am really needing a good fix I pop a dedicated atty and cart on with that in it and chug away at that for a bit, and that sorts me out lol

I recon I will want to start reducing the nic level in about 6 to 8 months because I see it as at the moment I am still craving the chemicals that were in the ciggy's and I am getting off that first. So I am dealing with one addiction at a time.

Oh something I have noticed is that like so many others I tried to find that tobacco taste, which I liked but I have never found it. Now though I am not fussed about finding that taste, but more of I am still trying to find an all day one and not having much luck there, though I have now got a very nice collection of occasional ones lol

On a final note before I give the topic back to its original theme of the Dr. For every ciggy you avoid by vaping it is an achievement and worthy of praise. There are no competitions here about how quickly or from how many, or anything like that. This forum is like a team where as an active member you will be encouraged every step of the way, and if you stumble along the way, so what, we have all been there at one time or another. I gave up for 8 years, and in one very stress filled and alcohol fuled night I went back to ciggys like a duck to water and was on them again for 11 years. IF you have only gone a few hrs or years without having the same amount of ciggys that you would of had then it is a huge achievement

I have never rated him to be honest with you Blue, but he is in the public eye and does have a large following, so if he gives us a stamp of aproval then it is good for the vaping comunity as a whole.

More of a general vaping thread than an off topic lounge thread I think, so moving it

Please everyone, don't ever be upset if we move threads. It just helps other members & lurkers to fond any info on e-cigs

[Dream (s)]

No don't worry Chrissie throw it in the bin if you like Glad your controlling my posts and placing them where you feel they should be. I don't know, I keep wondering if it should go here or there and when I'm not sure I start a thread in the lounge

The same Dr Hilary that slagged off e-cigs a cpl of yrs ago lol ........ at least he's come to his senses now

+1 to batty for having a 36mg at hand for "those moments"

[Dream (s)]

I must say that I told my doctor that I wanted to try and cut down and stop smoking and that I was going to purchase a e cig and his words were " thats good "

My doctor said "whats an e-cig " ho hum
