[Webby the Bear]

I smoked aged 14-18 and then stupidly restarted again at 26 and had been on-off til my hols last year. I had my last actual smoke in October. I then got hooked on the patches.

Now these patches are good but with the work I do I sweat a lot and they often fall off and they get wasted. Recently a lad at work started vaping. Tried it. Loved it.

Bought my first proper vape machine thingy today. 68 notes inc. the juice needed. But after the initial expensive outlay it's just juice and replacement coils every so often (not sure what the coils do exactly).

Out of pure interest I just wondered if there were any fellow oofers who vaped? I love how like smoking it is but with awesome flavours...... Mines wine gums

[baggers]

Good advice, stop vaping you will regret it later.  Not that smoking is any good either

Tries the Vaping, eCigs, use to make feel a bit ill after a while so stopped it.

Bit like Beer really, cant seem to drink anymore for some reason, have about 18 pints and I can hardly talk and start falling about all over the place.

You're doing better than me: I would drown if I had 18 pints

[Baron Von Spongebob]

Bought one for £48.

Went from 20+ per day to
7 then 6
5, 4 then 2 per day.

Thought what the hell was i bothering to smoke 2 per day for.

Now only vaping no smoking at all.

Don't even miss them.

This i might add is after 43 years of smoking.

Keep on vaping, you will get there in the end.

Took me less than a month to quit. Happy days.

[Sir Tigger KC]

So is the idea with vaping to give that up as well eventually?     

To be nicotine free?

Sorry for bring pedantic, but you're still smoking, just without smoke...

Surely you either quit or you don't, swapping one nicotine fix for another achieves nothing

Sorry, but it does, your not inhaling the harmful smoke/tar 

Plus, atm, perfectly legal to use in workplaces

I don't think that's the case in Wales. 

[Baron Von Spongebob]

Giving up vaping is the next thing.

Of course you can, and there are plenty of people that vape with 0mg of nicotine.

It pleases me, that's all that counts.

Instead you are deliberately inhaling finely atomised chemicals of dubious origin. But they are your lungs.
I'll stick with my thirty year Malteser habit

But is vaping really smoking?

Or inside an airport...
