My name is Josh, I was a smoker for over 20+ years. Tried everything from hypnosis, medication, OTC, products to help me quit. Until 2 1/2 years ago, as I was playing catch with my son (8 yrs), I took a break to have a cigarette. My son sits down next to me and says, Dad, I dont want you to die. Can you stop smoking? I thought to myself, why am I killing myself for this habit? I told my son that I would look into quitting. I did 3 weeks of intense research on how to quit. As I was researching alternative ways since all the above have failed, I found a website offering e-cigarettes. Did even more research and found that there were many success stories. I decided to buy a starter kit. Upon the day that I had received my started kit, I was actually excited. Charged up the batteries and to my first puff. Tobacco flavor. I spent a good hour testing this device. 2,3,4 hours go buy and I notice that I havent even had a real cigarette. Decided to give it a go. The next few days I never touched my pack a smokes. Had 7 packs left in a carton of 10 and threw them away without a thought. Fast forward 2 1/2 years I am still using my e-cigarette. I have increase my health, food taste much better, my love life has increase, no more hacking in the morning, and according to my Dr., I have a clean bill of health.
