Anyone notice a reduction in their craving for sweets?

Since I've started vaping, about a week ago now I have witnessed a sharp reduction in my sweets consumption. Has anyone else experienced this? Don't get me wrong I still like some greek yogurt with that fruit at the bottom and a cookie here and there,but overall I have not been craving sugary foods nearly as often as I had.

it is the downside to vaping, no i look at a delicious piece of pie and think, i can only eat 5 or 6 of those.

it seems even when vaping, one must pay a heavy price. when pie suffers, we all suffer.

I have noticed this and it is a very pleasant surprise.

Nicotine definitely has an effect on blood sugar. When you quit smoking, your sugar levels drop drastically. Sugar withdrawal is very similar to the side effects of quitting nicotine/cigs; some even say the symptoms of "cigarette" withdrawal" is mostly sugar withdrawal. Having gone on a complete sugar-free (I'm talking refined sugar) diet for seven days I agree.

One cessation website, actually warns users of a lower desire for soda and other sugar products. My personal experiences is similar to Abbas, but I've seen others go all crazy on sugar after quitting. Regardless of the response, when you quit there will be some type of reaction to sugar levels. I did not gain weight after smoking and wonder if this is why!

^^interesting. I was chalking it up to the sweet ejuice flavors I was inhaling. I did quit a while back for about and actually experienced weight loss, but I was also hitting the gym very hard

I experienced this for the first month or so but my craving for sweets has been coming back lately. Not sure how it will play out long term.

Yes, sweets decrease but an increase in salt. I can't get enough of flavored potato chips now!
