Eating alot less?

[P3rplexity]

Alright, well I've only been usin my PV for a few days now. It allowed to quit cold turkey off analogs, even when drinking I didn't have the need for one (I was sure I'd be puffin on an analog after drinking a little..... nope!) But I've noticed my appetite has really dropped.

Now, I'm not really heavy set to being with, I weighed 165-167 before I started vaping. In only 3 days I've dropped to 159 (I have been 165-167 for 3 years now, this is the biggest weight change I've seen since I went from 200-165 about 4 years ago)

I don't consider this to be a negative side effect at all, I was just curious if anybody else has noticed that they eat less food since they have started vaping. thanks

I have seen a decrease in my appetite as well. Have lost about 5 lbs over the time of vaping. As for the reasoning behind it,I couldn't tell ya. Don't get too worried unless you start looking like a stick figure lol

This is a side-effect I could totally get with! Do you think it is dehydration related?

since i started my ecig ive lost almost 20 pounds in one month. i was a touch over weight but am almost down to perfect weight for my height. my doc is very impressed. and the only thing ive done differently is use a ecig

Isn't nicotine said to be a mild appetite suppressant? I better start vaping more!
And, I bet your snacking less too during the day.

Twenty pounds in a month, that is impressive, and the fact that your doctor is alright with this weight loss in a short period of time, is a real plus! I also noticed a slight decease in appetite.

Very well could be, hadn't thought of that. I always drink plenty of water though, even before vaping I'd easily drink about 10-12 bottles a day. Who knows though.

The benefits just keep piling up

Nicotine, like other stimulants, has an appetite suppression effect, its true. However, we are in general evidently taking in LESS nicotine than when we were smoking. So nicotine by itself may not be the whole story. I think that the sweetness of PG and especially VG, as well as many of the flavors, especially the sweeter ones, are acting to fool the brain into thinking we are snacking all the time. So my cravings for sweet snacks are largely gone, and I eat far less in the evenings, which for me has a big effect on my weight.

Yeah, total bonus!

Eat way less sugar since vaping. Lost about 20 pounds. Back in sparring condition.

Wow I hadn't even noticed, but I haven't had candy (not even on Halloween!) since I started vaping. At least once a day I will get an extreme sweet tooth and break down and usually get starbursts or something, and at least a couple times a week I'll get a massive chocolate need.

I haven't had a single urge for either! How incredible.
