Hi Newbie here

[stescouse]

Hi All and I'm excited to join this forum.

I just got into vaping. I gave up smoking 9 years ago, but I started vaping as I felt I was missing something. I have stacked on weight since I gave up and never did when I was smoking. Well I started vaping 2 weeks ago and i've lost 8 pounds. I find that vaping takes away my appitite, so it's working for me in that respect. I just visited friends in Paris and there is a lot of vapers there. It was such a pleasure to finally have a drink after dinner and vape on the sidewalk cafes.

Has anyone else followed a similar path to vaping for weight loss? Don't know if I'm crazy lol. I do know that I will never go to cigarettes again. I gave up for 10 years previously. I did a lot of research before I started vaping about harm and stuff from a research conference in Europe, and it seems that it is minmal based on current medical opinon.

Welcome to the planet.
I've read other people's stories of how they've used vaping to lose weight, sadly it hasn't worked for me though. I'm the heaviest I've ever been at 15st 8th and just seem to be accumulating 2 or 3 pounds a week.

Good for you. Are you on zero nicotine then. Do take care not to slip into an unnecessary addiction ....& welcome.

Hi Clint thanks for your reply. I know how you feel I've piled on 4 stone to 15 stone since 2010. Vaping seems to kill the hunger urge that makes me over eat. Smoking was always my great pleasure and whenever I felt hungry I'd smoke, vaping seems to working for now, but I guess time will tell. I do have a problem with compulsive eating that I think took the place of smoking when I gave up. Sad thing is I still have all my good clothes in my wardrobe that are 28 inch waist and I'm determined to get back into them.

Same here. I'm doing the slimming world diet at the moment and hoping that one day I'll be able to fit into my good clothes again. (we sound like a couple of women lol)

Hi Vaporsizer

No I went for the nicotine as I wanted the hit. My mother died of lung cancer from tabacco so I will never go on the cigarettes. The nicotine really does help with the hunger and seems to working with the weight loss.
