Congrats on the switch! Get ready for other changes!

My personal blurb on food n such:
My eating habits have also changed. While it wasn't drastic enough on it's own, I am now (with concerted effort) pushing ~3000cal/day. Sounds like a lot but it was needed. When smoking, this wouldn't have been possible. Always been scrawny, it's just how it is; but my weight loss was becoming a concern.

Vaping has led me to being more health concious all around. I feel fantastic. Though some of my old favourites aren't so tasty any more :(

Glad you are seeing several health benefits from quitting the stinkies!!!!!

Hi Renolizzie - I just noticed you are from Reno. I am in Carson City. This is the first time I have seen a vaper on the forum that lives somewhere near me. Nice to know there are others not too far away!

Fun. I actually live in south of Silver Springs near the Carson River now. We have five acres, 3 goats, 2 dogs, a barn cat and a miniature horse. I shop in Carson City. There are going to be more and more of us e cig users.

WELCOME to the board and the wonderful world of ECF!


I am hungry all the time now. I could literally eat all day long. Like you, I used to be a one, MAYBE 2 meal a day guy while smoking, especially the past few years. Now, I feel like I could wipe out a buffet single handed.

I'm not even going to start on other 'appetites'

I am just the opposite. I have lost a few pounds. Probably because I can get the taste of Gooey Caramel Cookie for dessert instead of the calorie laden real thing. The rest of the day I use the tobacco based ones, but in the evening it is dessert time!

LOL!!

I quit smoking cold turkey last year for 7.5 months and gained 47 POUNDS! UGH I lost some of that when I started back smoking. I'm quit three weeks now again and I'm hungry all the time too. I think vaping makes my mouth water and signals my brain that it's time to eat. I need to get a handle on it soon. I do drink tons of water so maybe that will help with any potential weight gain. I think I'm more thirsty than I am hungry.

Welcome Tony and good luck!
