"I am a 50 year old male, single father with 2 daughters aged 9 and 12… I was also a smoker for over 25 years, from the age of 14 until around the age of 40. I had tried to quit, quite probably 15 - 20 times, with different levels of success but all inevitably failures. At the age of 40 I was overweight, my fitness was poor, I had a constant cough and would get sick several times a year with chest infections. It was also at this time I discovered vaping. Within 1 month I had gone from a packet of cigarettes a day (25) to around 4 or 5. By the end of the second month I was down to I - 2 a day and some days didn’t smoke at all. A week or two into my third month I had stopped smoking completely with very little effort if any. I no longer had the desire to smoke, because I was vaping instead."
