I'm trying to get my husband to do the ecig with me. I was always a social smoker and quit smoking a few weeks before surgery and started again a few weeks after. I usually have like three cigarettes every Friday night, but that's about it. I have been doing this for five years. I crave them sometimes during the week, but I don't buy them so I never have any. My husband smokes about a pack a day. He has tried chantix and the Patches in the last year and has not quit, which makes me not want to quit when I go out. I wanted to do the ecig so when I'm out and everyone is smoking, I can puff on that and same for my husband. He thinks it's stupid though. Everyone else I have talked to thought the same till they tried it. I don't know how to convince him...

If he isn't planning on quitting it won't work out. I'm alone in this battle.

Just wanted to say I smoked for thirty years... Oh god 30 is so long... Well I quit to have the surgery and I really didn't think it was going to work . I had quit several time and nothing stuck. This time I had acupuncture. It was amazing. I quit after the first treatment and had three total. It was like magic!!! Anyway I just wanted to comment that I miss them too but I'm so happy not smoking now. With the money I'm saving my husband and I will be going to Ireland and Scotland for the honeymoon we never had!!

Hi babs

I was thinking about hypnosis? I hate wanting something I can't have :(

Its been over a week now everyone is staying out my way lol. My surgery is not till Aug but I didn't want to deal with quitting and having just had an op. I do like that I don't stink and I'm not outta breath... so that gives me strength to keep going although having said that my friends uses e-cigs. Got a few get together's coming up so I'll see how I cope .

I puff & puff away at the e-cig that I haven't had the urge for more since this morning. Mind you I was only a 1-3 cigs per day. I'm more into these e-cig then regular one but I'm waiting for my zero nicotine by mail. I honestly don't want cancer & god forbid I already cost harm. Who knows only time will tell. I'm trying to hold on there for I know it's just air I'm not gonna die with no nicotine & other added crap.

I just bought the e cigs for my husband and I. I'm waiting for them to be delivered. My only concern is the availability of refill cartridges. If I have to order them each time and if they will get here quick enough to keep my husband from going back to regular cigarettes. ..

After 37 years of smoking a pack a day, I quit September 7, 2011. Its getting close to 2 years now and I don't miss it and my husband quit in February 2012 to help me out now he's glad he did it. When I went to my first introductory meeting for the WLS, they said if any of us are smokers and still at it before surgery, the surgery will be cancelled. It was all in the plan for me to quit when I did!!!!!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
