I've been a smoker for 6 years, since I started vaping 6 month ago I haven't touched a single cigarette.

Hello Vapentine
Loved your short story about "I’ve Forgotten What It Was Like to Smoke Cigarettes"
I've been vaping for almost 4 years now. While I too have a hard time remembering what it was like to smoke cigarettes, I do remember what it was like to start vaping, and how it transformed my life.
At first I had to be honest with myself. Smoking wasn't just an addiction for me. I liked smoking, I like nicotine. I like the action of it, the way it feels with that first cup of coffee in the morning. What I didn't like is the smell and what it was doing to me. But it was like that one bad girlfriend/boyfriend. They're so hot, yet so bad, it's hard to give up.
I didn't switch suddenly, it was gradual over a period of a couple of months. Once I did, I never looked back.
Like you, I may get winded, but I don't lose my breath. If I do it has more to do with me being just a tad over weight (wink wink) rather than my lungs being full of tobacco goo.
The positives? I smell better, both to other people, and literally. I can actually smell things for what they are now. Food is better. Sleep is better. I don't get the headaches like I used to. Colds and sinus infections are few and far between now. If I do get sick, it's short lived, it doesn't hang around for weeks on end like it did when I smoked.
The Cons? I love it so much. LOL
Good story and keep up the good work.

I stopped smoking and switched to vaping 3 years ago and I just completed my first half marathon finished it in 2 hours 59 min. I never could have done that when smoking. I have plans of getting another half marathon in and improve my time later this year.
