I don't know if it's related, but let me explain my situation.

I've been in vacations for a few days, and used a not-so-cloudy setup (I didn't wanna risk damaging my primary vape when away at the sea, and an rta with less clouds also draws less attention).
Now that I'm back at work, with my much-more-cloudy setup (Drop rda, with tri-core fused claptons, at roughly 90W), I feel like I'm much more hungry. I vape sweet flavor (strawberries with a touch of menthol), and I think it may trick my mind into wanting to eat sweet things...

Let me know if you already experienced something similar, or in the contrary, find it doesn't change anything. It may be worth saying what kind of vaper you are (cloud chaser, MTL with thin vape, or somewhere in between), and if you vape tasty/sweet juices or not, as I think it could play a big role in this.

Regardless of your form of ingestion be it low wattage, high, MTL, cloudy or not, nicotine usually has the opposite effect, it reduces appetite.
OTOH anxiety such as you might experience when on or returning from vacation might cause
you to vape as well as eat more.

When I vape my DIY butter pecan ice cream juice it doesn't make me want to eat butter pecan ice cream.
If anything vaping butter pecan ice cream flavored juice replaces the urge to actually eat the ice cream.

The more I vape, the more I experience the need to eat, some sort of dead pit in my stomach mouth. Not exactly hunger, but it's one of the ways my body is telling me "stop vaping so much". Happens to me when chain vaping at lower wattages, trying to lower nic.

Opposite here too, I am new to vaping (2 months) and I already lost couple pounds but I believe is more because of all the water I being drinking when I vape.
You're hydrating your lungs but not necessarily drinking water. Vaping dehidrates, drink more water. I love lemonade, cleans my mouth better than simply water.

I thought she would snore less. (Sigh)

Me and my mom snore the same. Like, a LOT. She found out she has sleep apnea and she has a Cpap now. I kind of want to do a sleep study and find out if I have it too. When my new insurance arrives, I'm going to do one, because no, it won't help the husband noise wise, I'll bet you anything it might help with my sleep issues.

I have heard from many place that if you are one of those "cutting logs with a chainsaw" type snorers (which I am) well, it's frequently coupled to sleep apnea.

I’ve actually lost 8lbs since I started vaping 9 mos ago. Seems to kill my appetite as opposed to stimulating it.

When I was a smoker, smoking decreased my appetite. If given the choice between smoking or eating a snack, I'd always go for the smoke and skip the food.

The same seems to holds true now that I am a vaper.

When I worked for a vape shop, a competitive body building couple came in interested in purchasing a vape in order to suppress sweet cravings when training for a competition. They are on very strict diets prior to competitions and often would have a craving for sweets. They had heard that sweet flavored vapor could decrease their cravings.

I had to explain to them that vapes were primarily used to help people switch from smoking to a more healthy nicotine delivery system. They left without purchasing anything.

Currently a 30 watt vaper using sub-ohm clearomizer. When I started vaping it was a standard ohm cartotank with a low powered Provari (10watts). Using primarily a cinnamon coffee cake flavor.
