Welcome to my Vaping Blog! I wasnt sure If I was going to Even write my Vaping journey at first however The More and More I think about it, I would be doing YOU a Disservice.
My Intentions:
- To Share My Experience with people looking for information about Vaping.
- To Do my Best to educate people about Vaping
- To Inspire people to Switch from Combustible Cigarettes
FIRST of All...
WHO AM I and How Did I get Here?
My Name is Tara Woodruff and I am a Grand Ma, Mom, Daughter, Coach, Friend And Business Woman. I had been smoking Regularly from the Age of 13 till November 2014. What do I mean By regular and HOW long is That really? Regular to me meant At least a PACK a day ( mostly 2+) for 30 years. ( Im 43 Years Old)
I Was A DIE HARD. Swore I would Never Entertain Quitting Smoking EVER. It Never made Any sense to me to Quit, no matter how smart I am, I never saw the end of my smoking days. As a matter of fact, If you asked me if I was ever going to quit as little as 2 months ago, I would have laughed and answered FIRMLY, NO.
Something Changed in My Brain During the Month of November.
I caught Myself a Nasty lill chest infection at the end of October. Once November was fully upon us, I could Barely BREATH. I was Sick as a Dog but I figured it would go a way quickly as I had planned a Juice fast for the first week of November Anyhow...That would SURELY Kick it out of my system...
I was Wrong...BIG TIME.
I wasn't even able to Enjoy my Juice fast (It Is Enjoyable Really!) And it did not kick the chest cold out... I did ever holistic remedy I could Find. NOTHING relieved me, and I was soon on Mucinex.... I do not like Taking Any medications, so I was upset with it... Literately Counting the Hours until I could "SAFELY" have another dose.... And It Barely offered any relief...
After TWO weeks of THAT
I Began to PAY very Close attention to my Cigarette Intake, writing down the time I decided to Smoke. I was Curious as to how much the cold slowed me down... and curious if I could Slow myself down some more by keeping a RUTHLESS Record of my Smoking.
I was at 15 Cigarettes a day ( WAY BACK from my Normal intake) and I was waiting until 2 hours after I woke to EVEN attempt a Cigarette... I started To Space Them by 2 hours.
By The END of November
I was Down to 4 - 5 Cigarettes a day and watching YouTubes on how to Vape correctly. I already had one of them blu e cigs... But found it very strange that it Hurt MORE than the Cigarettes... Thank God For YouTube!! Because If I had not learned how I was Doing it wrong for how long I smoked.... I would have NOT Quit... We Would Not be discussing this today...
I Did Lots of research over a few days time, Found ZeeCigs Youtube, And IndoorSmokers YouTube and Made a Plan to FULLY switch as soon as I got my Starter Vape!
I Went To My LOCAL Vape Store and Got Turned away by a Completely Incompetent Salesman, All He Did was BARK Price at me, Never showing me a Kit... NOTHING... Needless to say, I was upset because I knew I needed to be SHOWN what I could Afford and How to Use it... And I wasn't getting that service there....
YOU Will Not Believe Where I found Great Service...
I went to the gas station a day later for something completely unrelated and Noticed that the owner of the store had set up a COMPLETE Vape shop and Mega Juice Bar right there!! I was Surprised... Since I started looking into Vapes... everyone seems to say, DO NOT GET IT AT THE GAS STATION... LOL
This, my friend was no ordinary vape station in a Convenience store.. This was the Real deal... So I figured Id see if anyone could help me and Sure enough.... I was helped! The owner had fully trained his existing staff to assist me and once I had selected a Vape ( I went with the Tesla SidewinderII) I was Expertly trained on How to Use it, And Take care of it!

I Have Not had a COMBUSTIBLE Cigarette Since!!
It Gets even Better... My Mother, Smoker for 50 + Years, Switched :)
My Daughter, Smoker for 7 years SWITCHED!!
What Was The Flip Of The Switch for Me?
Well, This is Why You wont hear me Berate any Tobacco users... It Only became my desicion after It Finally Made REAL sense To QUIT. I KNEW in my MIND and Heart, during that CRAZED Chest Infected November, that I was literately at the MIDDLE of my life..... If I QUIT... That if I were to Continue on, I was more like 3 quarters of the way through. And If I didn't Quit... I would Never really Truly be as Healthy as I desired or be Able to Do things I have LONG dreamed of... LIKE Surfing or Jogging regularly. No Way would I be able to DANCE All Night Long or Any of the Things that My Former Healthy Lungs took for granted.
AND Not To Forget How Awesome It would Be to Do those Great things with My Family!!
SO, I am HERE to Share My Experience With Vaping and Inspire You to Stay INTERESTED in The IDEA of Switching Too!
