Anyone else accidentally give up drinking?!

[btportugal]

Since I've (almost) given up smoking, an unexpected side effect has been that I've effortlessly (almost) given up drinking alcohol as well.

Where I used to be out on the patio with some beers and a pack of ciggies, I'm now sitting on the bed vaping and browsing the web.

Not complaining - much healthier and I've already lost a few pounds. Just wondered if anyone else noticed this phenomenon!

LOL, newp. Can't say that I've given up drinking I don't go out to pubs or bars, but I have a well-stocked refrigerator and liquor cabinet

 

[btportugal]

Haha I haven't completely, but with beer and cigs going hand in hand I just find I don't fancy the former very much anymore......

I don't drink much anymore but I'm not drinking any less.

Maybe when new alcohol harm reduction technology comes out I'll switch but for now my alcohol consumption stays the same. I enjoy it too much.

I quit by using the smok E-Boozerette. Works fine except for the ones from the gas station.

I found I needed to find flavors other then Tobacco that go with a glass of red wine and boy have I found some that compliment it well!

Accidentally? No. I quit on purpose. But in the '80's, I accidentally got drunk alot!

I'm actually starting to wonder if there's more to this - maybe it's because my tastebuds are coming alive again. Last night, opened a bottle of cider, one sip, decided I didn't like the taste anymore. Tonight did the same with a glass of wine.

It's either tastebuds back after hardly smoking any cigs, or that I'm getting too used to nice flavours from vaping!

I lost all taste for coffee when I tried using Chantix for smoking. I'm so glad I can enjoy my pot of coffee in the morning along with my vape again.

The thing that got me to stop drinking was reflux. It wasn't worth the pain to drink.

Same here. I quit 27 years ago. I had an allergic reaction to booze. When I drank, I sometimes would break out in handcuffs.

No... That actual took some work on My Part.

LOL

Yes. When I started smoking. Just as well as they definitely don't go together, the only thing worse than a cig and beer is a cig and coffee.

Every year at the end of September but I always seem to start again April 1st

I have found that fruity vapes tend to pair nicely with a glass of red wine to name one. Tpbacco also goes well depending on the particular blend.

I have found that fruity vapes pair well with a red wine and tobacco blends of course.
