    ciggies dont usually make me laugh ... l hate them with a passion [ no not an ex smoker and never tried YUKK ! ] my vice is wine so lm no angel :D
    BUT l nearly wet myself [lm at that age ] when my sister was so stressed out she lit the end of her electric one :rotfl::rotfl:

    now shes back to those stinky others :mad: oxygen over here pse

    Och maybe her liquid wasn't strong enough. Get her to try again with the next level up in liquid. I had a social worker who had a problem with huge cravings after 3 weeks. Got her to get the next level up of e-liquid (don't know where she got it from. Some site her boss recommended) and now she's fine :T.

    Yeah anyone any idea how long air mail letters are taking to come from the states right now? I've been waiting 2.5 weeks for my latest e-cig (only £20 - very MSE) and getting a tad worried

  • Hi everyone,

    Just want to say that e-cigarettes may look confusing to most folks to begin with. But they aren't, they can be as simple as you want them to be & no harder to get used to than lighting a real cigarette.

    Yes, there are lots of different models out there - some so over priced for what they are, it's almost criminal :( My main aim ever since I bought my first e-cig has been to let as many people know about how much they could help smokers - especially where other methods have failed. And secondly, to help folks find the best e-cig at the best price for them :)

    So please, don't ever hesitate asking any questions.

    3 weeks no ciggies thanx to my ecig and support from the allabout forum.....deffo if you have tried other methods and failed,which i have done plenty of times, ecigs are the way to go!!

    Best thing about them is normally if i give up i undergo a severe personality change...with my trusty riva, im still me......

    Good luck to all of us!!
  • You are doing so well Jacci, especially with the pain, I understand that all to well, as I have chronic pain 24/7 and to be honest never in a million years thought I could give up the smokes. Spending a lot of time in bed - as you are doing - does make it appear as if it will be harder to stop as you cannot do something else. The e-cig is fantastic and now I have my Riva as well I am so happy. Its not the same as a look a like cigarette I have found, but then still got my look a like if I get the craving for a real one, as I know it works.......

    Hope you are out of pain soon

    Hugs

  • Sorry to jump in here, but I know a few people who have switched to e-cigs and never looked back. I just ordered one for my gran to try from a site called el cigarette and it was £13.99 for a starter pack. Its the place where one of my friends gets his. I figured for that price its worth a try! Will let you know how she gets on.

    i went to the mecca bingo last night and was refused permission to use my ego riva :mad: and got thrown outside to the smoking quarters lol..(even though they knew it wasnt smoking they have had issues before where other people have complained)

    however i managed to introduce the ecig to the smoking quarters and let the ladies try my ecig with the unused cartridges that i dont get along with (i prefer a bud atomiser)....all i can say is they were very impressed.

    4 weeks tomorrow - no cigs and love my riva
    Give blood - its free
  • So pleased to hear you are loving your Riva Fsdss :) And congratulations on the 4 weeks :D

    Oh & very well done introducing e-cigs to the bingo smokers :D
  • A very heavy long time smoker friend came over today, he ended up taking an sd mini and some liquid with him. :) Got a call from him earlier and he's only had five rollies since 1.30! :D The e-cig goodness is spreading :)
    It's all due to this thread I started on them, and since then my other half, my friend and his other half have started :) Thank you!! :)

    I think it's down the the fact that e-cigs look like you are smoking too much.
    I bet it's the smokers themselves that are complaining, or the rabid anti smokers. Jealousy, or ignorance.

    I'm starting to get a bit confused why smokers, or ex-smokers, seem to be the loudest complainants re e-cigs.

    They seem to agree (if you really push them) that it's better for you than smoking, yet they still want to stop vaping. :wall:
