I am a 52 year old woman been smoking since i was 13 so very long time. My smoking habit consisted of 1-1 1/2 packs a day of american spirit ultra lite organic cigs. I had bypass heart surgery 1/23/2008 and started smoking again after 3 months. I have tried nicotine gum, patches and lozenges NOTHING has helped. First thing when i woke was to smoke a butt. I have also tried chantix and wellbutin (zyban). Finally in April i bought A few disposable BLU cigs… They were good but too expensive. Then week later i bought a BLU electronic kit. Finally i was no longer buying tobacco cigarettes. Then within 2-3 weeks i bought V2 ecigs. Better battery and longer lasting cartridges. I found myself no longer buying cigarettes at all. My ecig is not the first thing in my mouth when i wake!! I have more energy. My skin looks better. I can breathe better no shortness of breathe. I am so happy down to 12 mg and working towards 6 mg.My clothes, car, breathe doesn’t smell. My daughter and son are so happy. I love vaping it saved my life and getting my 30 year old son, my daughters 25 year old boyfriend and my sons girlfriend to quit the same way! 4 people that were buying tobacco cigarettes are now vapers on their way to complete freedom from BIG tobacco!!! Vaper with nicotine, god i only wish this was around years ago. Smokers need something to deal with the oral obsession and this is it!! Thank you for listening to my story. I hope it helps.
