Doesnt the E-cig keep contributing to the "habit portion" of smoking? Getting your body free of the horrific toxins, poisons and damage from ingesting is one battle......but the habit of having a cig in your hand or mouth is a whole other can of worms. A friend of mine that has successfully quit smoking says there is only "1" way to quit, and that is to totally quit. I hope you stay strong and keep smoke free, but get rid of that pacifier you suck on. ;)

I've got an e-cig but I'm not trying to quit smoking, I just like to have it around so I can smoke vape indoors and in prohibited areas.   This thread ( http://bbs.freetalklive.com/hijack-free-zone/the-un-definitive-e-cigs-thread/ ) though has an enormous amount of information on the stuff though.  I've tried a lot of flavors and really dig the electric cigarette, but don't really plan on quitting the real thing any time soon.  I think though that if I did decide to quit smoking that the e-cig would be the ticket.

Y'all may be off cigs but you're still hooked on nicotine.
