Best $84 I ever spent - updated - 7 weeks

[Maridw]

I am taking the plunge come this weekend. My family have been wanting me to quit smoking and so I bought an electronic cigarette yesterday.

They have 4 different levels of nicotine (regular, light, ultra light and none). I am starting on the light since that is the type of cigs I smoke. I figure after awhile I can go done to ultra light and then none. I have tried patches and started having nightmares with them. Heard bad things about Chantix so didn't want to go that route.

My best friend is doing it too, so since we are going to be grandma's together, we decided to do this together.

My DH & DD is happy that I am doing this. I talked to my mom today and she is happy too. My best friend's family is happy that she is doing it.

Wish me luck.

Good luck and if you don't mind a suggestion, keep a bunch of hard candies on hand, Lifesavers Butterscotch really helped me.

Good Luck, you can do this!!!!

I am proud of you and hope you'll keep us posted!!!

If I can do it, you can do it too!



Best of luck to you and you've completed the first and hardest part: wanting to quit and making a plan to do it. The commitment is the hardest part. The rest is just chemistry.

Good Luck!! Don't give up...you can do it!

 

[dislaney]

Good luck! You can do it..

Good luck to you both!

For a continuous visual reinforcement take the money that you would have spent daily on cigarettes and put it somewhere prominently displayed, where you can see it and keep your focus.

Remember, no matter what happens, a cigarette won't make it better.

After the first 8 hours you are nearly nicotine free in your blood stream!

Good luck, just remember why you are doing this

We are about to start trying this for my mom to use.

We are about to start trying this for my mom to use.

I will let you know how it is. When we went to buy this, the vendor let us try it first.

They are easy to put together and as I said they have two flavors (regular & menthol) and four strengths (regular - 1.8% nicotine, light - 1.2% nicotine, ultra light - 0.6% nicotine and none - 0% nicotine). We are both starting on light and hope to go to none.

They are not marketed as a smoking cessation product, but I don't see why they can't be used as one. The directions are very easy to follow. You take the battery and charge it up. Once it is charged you add the vaporizer and then the cartridge.

We are using NJoy - here is a picture of what they look like (the ones we are going to use):

Good Luck to you......
Just wondering, do you have high blood pressure??
Think of all the money you are going to save and how much nicer your lungs will breathe!!!!

 

[Maridw]

I don't have high blood pressure, in fact I have always had low blood pressure.

It has been seven weeks since I started this and I haven't gained any weight, I am still using the electronic cigarette and am so glad I went to this.
Two weeks ago my first grandbaby was born. I was able to be with my DD when my GDD was born. She is such a beautiful girl.

We just did recital pictures Tuesday and Wednesday and she had her picture taken.

I used an outfit that was on one of my Disney Bears that I got from Build A Bear. It fits perfectly.
