Vaping and aging vs tobacco

[db13berry]

I have had a lot of comments on how healthy my skin looks. Never got that before. *smiles*

Wow! Is that quote true at all?? If so, it explains a lot in my case. 

Umm, probably referring to stamina on the male aspect of that quote. Lol

Haven't had a chance to test that theory since I quit smoking. It's due to a combination of faithfulness and distance at the moment.

I have heard that e cigs can dehydrate, but it is nothing compared to the 1000's of chemicals in regular cigarettes. Just drink more water to compensate! Its a win, win! No more smoking and you are always hydrated! LOL

I've just started vaping and I already feel better. Not sure if it's all mental but I do feel good about it.

About 3 weeks after I started vaping and quit analogs, I stepped in front of my mirror to brush my hair and was startled by my image. I looked GOOD. My eyes are clear, my skin is pink, I look healthy.

Still have wrinkles.

Hahahah Love the last part.

I've never thought about the healthier skin aspect! I have bad acne, and this is my second day smoke free but I live in a smoker's house (3 peeps at a pack a day that WON'T switch lol) so I may take a little longer to see results. Can't wait to get rid of the nic fingers. I can't stand the look of my fingers right now.

Well since I got my PV I went out last night. I figured out I am very stubborn, and even if I make rules for myself I will break them. So I didn't bring my cigarettes to the bar but instead I had a few half smoked ones in my car. Gross, and more reason to stick to vaping. I smoked two of those but mostly stuck to my Inferno. I drained the tank but usually if I go out to drink I will smoke an entire pack and wonder where on earth they went the next day. Also gave the website where I got mine to a friend. It is most likely my imagination, but I think I was able to smell my apartment when I walked in. Mostly, that means I smelled catbox but eh. That just means I'll clean it more often.

Updates on any more youthful appearance will be given. So far it's just cat pee.

I was clipping my nails while I read this and thought Damn! These suckers are growing at an alarming rate (toe nails too). I didn't think to attribute that to my vaping but there it is. I hope the wife's hair stops fallin' out; it could happen.

I suffered from break outs when I first started vaping. Especially around my chin. I was not a happy camper - come on, I'm in my mid-40's - zits are for kids! But after a couple of weeks and increasing my water my skin cleared up.

I am very fair skinned and was a life guard for 6 years in the days when we thought 15 spf was total sun block and a waste of time (face palm) so I have a lot of sun damage. i have noticed recently that the lines around my lips are going away. And the crows feet aren't as deep.

My teeth are white - which my dental tech is very happy about!! But my dentist did caution me to make sure I brush well since the VG/PG can cause a film on teeth attracting plaque.

My fingers aren't stained. My hands aren't chapped from constant hand washing to remove the smell (I prop my chin on my hand when I'm reading online etc) and since I wasn't heading outside to smoke in the cold dry air!
