Yup 18 is as high as I could go too. I started at 18 and very quickly went down to 12mg. Too much at 18mg or even just a little at 24 and I get a headache and will be spending a lot of time in the bathroom.

Are you sure your not "vaping" some MJ? lol, im kidding. But yeah, good job on the quitting tho, keep it up!
You're not the only one. vaping makes me hungry too. I'm one of those annoying "naturally skinny" guys. I eat whenever I feel like it and never gain weight. I'm in my 30s and have 6-pack abs without trying. I can easily go all day without eating.
Everybody says nicotine is an appetite suppressant, but it has the opposite effect on me. My theory is that most of the time I'm too lazy to eat, and the nicotine counteracts that. But I only vape occasionally so I don't think it will have any noticeable effect on my weight.

Vaping gets you your nicotine; smoking gets you nicotine and a few other addictive substances (there are good threads about it here - you can probably find them by searching for "alkaloids").
So, although you've got a source of nicotine, you're still going through withdrawals from the other chemicals in tobacco.
Many people will, when in withdrawals, replace the missing substance(s) with something else. Food (sometimes just sugar) is very common.
I've watched a close friend go through this over and over. I always know when he's "quitting" drinking (it isn't really quitting if you "quit" monthly) because he leaves a trail of candy wrappers everywhere he goes.

Don't confuse the effects of quitting smoking with your journey into vaping.
You will still experience withdrawals from the toxic chemicals from cigarettes that you are no longer receiving.

This is very much true. I found it a lot more tolerable with vaping than other quit methods though (I think this is true for most of us), and no noticeable symptoms at all after about a week in. (about 7 weeks ago now) Now I don't miss the stinkies at all.
It makes me NOT hungry... I think its that I vape 18mg nic usually.
Hey.. has anyone on here found a website as good as fasttech in the USA?

Hey Warzoid, not sure, but my better half, after dropping the analogs and vaping wants to do diet pills, cause she feels the need to eat more. She is doing 12 mg nic. Me, I an still at 18 /24 and just want to nibble, and vape. 8-o
Dude, are you sure you bought the right kind of fluid?
Just kidding.
I get the munchies too. I think its the body missing all the other chemicals (analogues have a lot of them), and the changes in hand ritual that produces the feeling in me. I expect it to wear off soon.
Minor dehydration can, in some people, manifest as hunger. I'd just try taking a few swigs of water when you get that hungry feeling, to see if it does do anything.
My appetite went absolutely crazy when I started taking Prozac, but nicotine has helped me control the urge to just eat EVERYTHING.

After some experimentation, I've found nicotine does suppress appetite, but only at higher doses than I usually use. Not high enough to cause nausea or headache, but still less enjoyable than the appetite promoting lower doses.
Much e is actually the opposite I have lost 10 lbs since I started vaping all these delicious flavors. My sweet and snack cravings are gone!
myself I rather vape then eat a chocolate bar that I have a pile of sitting beside my desk...
only time I dig into one is when I run out of water or tea... then I eat one...
think I lost some eight since I started vaping...
