Weight gain and vaping

[hapy2bme]

So, I haven't seen anything on this and I was wondering if anyone else has any thoughts or experiences to share on this topic.

I am 2 days shy of 90 days being analogue free and for the first time ever in all of my attempts of quitting analogues, I haven't gained any weight. Has anyone else had a similar experience?

I've gained a little bit of weight, but that's just because food is actually tasty again! The last time I tried to quit smoking, I gained nearly 50 lbs! Since I started vaping, I've gained maybe 10. I'll take that any day!

Welcome to ECF. I have seen this topic discussed in the past. I am also like you. I have not had any weight fluctuations since taking up vaping and dropping the cigs. Congrats on the 90 day milestone!

I have gained a bit... but not a lot.

Certainly I expected to gain a lot more. I'm at 5 or 6 months depending on where I count from.

One reason I got into vaping was to take care of the hand to mouth habit that always made me gain a ton of weight whenever I quit smoking. I'm less than 90 days from the day I quit, and doing quite well. I'm eating a lot better now (had a problem when I was smoking and kept losing too much weight) but haven't seen the extreme weight gain or puffiness as I used to when I would stop smoking.

I've actually lost weight,since I started vaping. I think a lot of it has to do with vaping mostly sweet flavors so I don't crave sweets like I once did

I've gained about 10 lbs in the 6 weeks or so since I started vaping & quit smoking. I think it has more to do with my no longer using all my work breaks to smoke. I actually eat lunch now!

No weight gain here in the 3 months I've been vaping.

I've gained about 10 lbs & a couple inches in the waist, but it's more likely due to too much PM snacking than quitting analogs.

 

[NICnurse]

I gained about 5-6 pounds over the first few weeks, but I have taken most of that off now. Tomorrow will be day 100 of no analogs/only vaping for me!

No gained lbs in seven months of vaping,seems like the only time i gain weight is from increased beer intake, its a good thing i switced to the hard stuff!

I just went to the dr's this am after my comp class. I stepped on the scales and there were 9 extra lbs!! I've had a rough time gaining weight in the past 3 yrs or so and my peeps have been worried. I kinda was too. I DO have a much healthier appetite these days. I don't crave the sweets so much because I vape 'em, but I can eat plates of REAL food like there's no tomorrow. I really need to watch though, don't wanna go overboard!

I have had no change in weight in 4 months.

On other quitting attempts I gained quite a bit of weight. I would stuff my face to avoid picking up an analog. But when I vape I really don't notice much of a gain as I don't eat as much. I would have to take my pv out of my mouth to eat and I don't really want to do that lol.

Over three months with e-cigs, weight is stable. I am a lifetime weight watcher, so that's a really good thing. I do put in over 1,000 calories a day of cycling and Madam Gee feeds me lean proteins, barley, and the world's best blanched vegetables.

Same here. I put on a pair of jeans I hadn't worn in a month or so, and they were LOOSE!! Got on the scale and I'd lost 10 pounds.

I think my senses are saturated enough with the e-flavor, that I don't get cravings, anymore. And when I do, it's for e-food!

I lost 40 pounds in the first 3 months of vaping (I was a total fatty. Closer to normal weight now). I credit English Toffee and Butter Pecan flavored juice for this. I was a borderline diabetic and now my blood sugar is well within normal range as well. I love vaping!

I've been able to drop a lot of weight actually. I started jogging and riding my bike a lot... you should have seen how insane I looked when jogging, I was laughing maniacally because I was tracking my jogs in MILES, not minutes. (I've never been a runner, even before smoking)

After a short vacation where I really didn't work out or eat right, and now that the cold weather is hitting Chicago, I've gained a bit back but I don't attribute any of it to vaping. Vaping has done nothing but allow me to loose weight... when I want.

Same here. I think the flavors satisfy me.

I had a regular monthly weigh-in today; I gained a pound . Next time I weigh in it will be after a haircut, though.
