| How are the quitters doing... Just curious how all the quitters (cigarettes that is) are doing. I relapsed unfortunately but am back on the wagon with vapor cigs. Those things are heaven sent and come in flavors. I bought pina calada (sp?) and Big Melons (fruit flavor). lol Not cheap by any means. I paid $70 for my kit and it wasn't the top of the line kit. But cheaper than buying packs for sure. How is everyone else? |

| Keep it up with the vapors! They really are a God send to us smokers, aren't they? I haven't had a "full" cigarette since i quit in march. I actually tried smoking 4 separate times. All 4 of those times, I put the cig out after about 2 or 3 drags because it tasted so nasty to me. I attribute this to the vapor cig I use and the menthol juice it has. It is different than any other juice I've tried. It's sweet...and reminds me of wrigley's spearamint (sp?) gum. So strong and sweet and good that my menthol cigs now taste like non-menthol and yucky. I'm on step 2 of 3 on the mg's they have. It is definitely a crutch and in my hand at all times (so much so that I dropped it one time and busted the atomizer..had to order another). Anyway, in over 25 years..it is the only thing that has actually stopped cigarettes in my life So, good for you that you are back to it and just hang in there! You can do it! We are in this together!

| I worry that there's some hidden health issue in there we don't know about yet. Like in twenty years all of a sudden people will be having babies with three arms and they'll find out it's because of some ingredient in the vapor cigs. Or something crazy like that. But a lot of people say no they are safe. |

| I stopped so long ago I maybe don't even count but still smokeless here. Keep it up and just get through today. One day at a time and don't ever run out of your substitutes. I saw a girl at the drug store the other day ask for the "electric" cigarettes I think she said and they were completely out and sadly she bought a pack (or maybe two?) of Marlboro's and her bill was right around $6.75!!!! Could one pack have cost her that much? She didn't get anything else beside the cigarettes but for that money I was thinking maybe she got two packs.

| To be honest, I have worried about any future effects of the vapor cigs. But I talked to my doctor before I started on them and he bottom-lined it for me: No matter what, it's better than what you are doing to your body right now and for the past 30 years.... so true.

| I've cut down to maybe 2-3 cigs a day, some days zero cigs. I am 'vaping' too! Love the Black Licorice and the Spearmint flavors. I think the flavors stop me from eating more too, lol! I buy my hardware and vape juice from dojoninja.com here in Maryland... they have really good prices and rebuildable atomizers. Another place here sells like 2500 flavors of v-juice, but theirs is a bit thinner (runny-er). Don't know if that makes a difference. They have Rootbeer flavor which I really love! Their hardware is more expensive though.

I just relapsed and am back again for a couple weeks now on vapor cigs. The easiest quit ever. lol. But yes. they are up past $6 a pack. crazy isn't it.

| I have never been a smoker. I tried them as a kid, but just didn't get the habit. I crave them all the time. I guess it is because I grew up with my parents smoking. I would like to have one right now.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | The doctor keeps telling my DH that those vapor cigs get the most results from his patients than any meds. I'm going to let him read this thread. Maybe he will try them after seeing that they actually do help. Me? Naw, I'm not a smoker. Just married one. I'm proud of all of you!!! It takes determination and lots of will power, I'm sure. I don't know that I could quit if I were a smoker.

| My husband finally gave in and got one for himself today. I get mine from Vapor Stix (it's a place out of Richmond, KY. A truck driver (I work at a trucking company) brought some to a lot of us. Their website sucks, but I think their triple menthol juice is the best menthol in the biz...they are easy to order from over the phone..nice man on the other end of the phone I'm really thinking about checking out some of the other flavors. They have so many. I wanna try the bubble gum next.
