LOL -The Mosh- I'm down 43 pounds. I had quit esmoking and any kind of smoking/vaping altogether by accident. But my boss's mother would come to my house and flick her cigarettes in my yard (and even when I smoked, I never littered my OWN yard with my butts...) and I had just picked up running and used an inhaler from time to time and it never failed that she would stop by just after I had used my inhaler because I just got done with a crazy run and she would blow that smoke cloud in my face and I would be coughing for an hour or more because my newly opened lungs were ......... So, I got my ecig out and charged it to show it to her to try and convince her to switch so I wouldn't have to smell her nastiness in my house... And then I realized that maybe if I had something to do with my hands and mouth I wouldn't shove food in my pie hole all the time...so now, when I feel like eating when I'm not hungry, I just vape...and I exercise (and I can now because I can breathe perfectly with NO inhaler)...and I'm living a better life. I'm not saying that the ecig should be used for weight loss...I'm just saying that I really like being able to taste chocolate and other goodies without increasing my calorie intake! ROFL! So, awesome, I'm glad you "hate" your ecig so much! ;-/
I just have to reply to this since my wife, who is on a strict no sugar/low carb diet, quickly jumped on the e-cig bandwagon when I told her she can vape cheesecake.Oh girl! (HUG) I'm glad u posted this...I had gastric bypass surgery about 7 years ago.. I've lost 150 lbs so far, but not as much as I need to... because of the surgery... I can't eat sugar any more without feeling like I'm going to absolutely die... it makes me so sick... but that's one of the reasons you lose weight.. and I knew before I had the surgery...so I'm not complaining at all...So in keeping with the spirit of this thread, I tell you this because,
IT IS SO "TERRIBLE" to vape cotton candy, blueberry cheesecake, atomic fireball, english toffee...omg..the list goes on and on...WITH NO CALORIES AND NO SUGAR..AND NO WEIGHT GAIN....and even (gasp) POSSIBLE WEIGHT LOSS !!! I "HATE" MY E-CIG!!!
I do believe that i have actually gained a couple of lbs, which is a good thing for me. I just can't stop eating now that I can taste everything.![]()
HAHAHA.....I really miss driving helplessly down the highway as the back seat of my car catches fire from the cig I thought I threw out the car window....Tossing the ciggy out the car window and then remembering the back window is open.
AAAH Italy, love that country, when I was there all I saw was Marlboro, don't even know how to spell it, don't even think of trying to buy Capri Ultra lights. Those were the days.Haven't gotten mine yet, but I know that these are going to be on my list:
I'm totally going to miss that one time that I threw a .... out the window while I was driving down the road and then all of a sudden smell burning just to pull over and search the back of the car and realize that it was on the driver seat right next to my hair. That was awesome.
I'm going to miss going to the doctor's office and lieing to the nurse and doctor about my smoking just so that I don't have to hear the whole "You should quit...you know how bad that is for you....you have kids" talk. Or actually telling them that I smoke and then listen to them try to convince me that I could quit it's not that hard.
Totally gonna miss that jerk that got in my face about smoking when I was pregnant (I was 5 weeks along, and had just found out, I can't quit the second that pee stick gives me a + sign).
Going to miss that cigarette smell on my fingers (haven't noticed it on my clothes, but hey I can't smeel right anyway right?)
Going to miss standing 20 feet away from everyone at the busstop in the morning when I get rid off (I mean send my kids to school) my kids for the day because I'm smoking a cigarette and none of the other parents there do.
Going to think it's Effing Hilarious when my husband has to go outside in the freezing cold weather to smoke, or when he runs out of cigarettes and doesn't grab any on the way home then expects me to drive 20 minutes to the base to go get him some (Italian shops don't sell Newports, at least not that I've noticed), he can get it himself or buy his own e-cigs.
I'm going to miss lighting up my cigarettes every 10 minutes when I'm outside chatting with my neighbor in the middle of the night.
Losing my lighters, shaking them to make them work, tobacco crap all over my phone (I keep my cigs in my jacket pocket at all times), smoking butts cuz I'm out of smokes, bumming smokes from a neighbor who smokes Pall Mall's and I Newports.
Going to miss having to wait 5 extra minutes before leaving anywhere just because I have to smoke a cigarette before driving long distances (20 minutes in my case lol).
OH, and totally going to miss having to find a smoking zone on base because you aren't allowed to smoke anywhere else. And they don't put them up everywhere I usually do it next to my car and I've still gotten .....ed at, at least I don't smoke in the car with the fricken baby.
OH AND last year for 3 months they didn't have my brand of cigarettes anywhere in Italy (they say shipping delays, my neighbors and I say the trucks were fricken hijacked), matter of fact the only cigarettes that the base was selling was Pall Malls and some other stuff, they ran out of everything. Then they got a puny shipment in after 3 months, and then they were out again for 2 months. When that next shipment came in I totally bought 3 cartons just for me. Totally going to miss smoking crap when the base is out of everything (They are going through something similar right now except with effing LIGHTBULBS, been 3 months since they've had any).
