Why are the most of the people who vape are a bit overweight

[TheRapidPro]

So, just asking. 9 out of 10 people who I know they vape are overweight or at least have a little bit more of a bigger body, including me. However, smokers I know are much more slim, and don't have weight issues. All of them that I know, according to my observations. Why can this be? Is it because vapers are usually a bit more geeky? Does it actually directly or indirectly affect the BMI? Is it just my environment? What do you think?

Fail! Try again.

I don't think vaping has anything to do with BMI.

I would instead look at the sugar laden foods and liquids being consumed. Practically everything in a grocery store has sugar in it, not just junk food. Sugar comes in many forms and names.

Hi and welcome,
How long did you smoke and how many per day?
When did you quit and begin vaping?

What mod and topper are you using?
What is the nicotine level of your juice?

IMO: BMI = BS.

Cheers

Smoking inhibits hunger...vaping doesn't.

Wow, REALLY ? ? ?

I'll just go ahead and be B R U T A L L Y honest and post perhaps what others may be thinking as I have no problem being a straight shooter.

What a crappy question to ask! WTF. Perhaps you mean well...but -------> just NVM before I get myself into trouble.

BTW my experience with local vapers is the very opposite of yours. Oh crap, I'll just say it...you do realize that ALL body types exist upon planet Earth whether vaping or not right? NVM

Good day........

I lost a couple pounds when I started vaping.

I really apologize, but I have to say that is the dumbest thread title I have ever read.

With that said, I was thin as a smoker and vaping hasn't changed that.

LOL thanks to the miracle of DIET and EXERCISE.

I will say I did used to use the excuse "But I'll gain weight!' when people talked to me about quitting but I knew that wasn't the reason. My mom used to have the best answer, "You are going to be really skinny when you get CANCER."

HOWEVER. Vaping does not cause weight gain to the best of my understanding but OKAY have it your way.

You porky vaper you. LOL.

I don't know. But, I gained 36kg in 5 years after switching.

Probably unrelated.

I was hoping my Dr would stop lecturing me, when I stopped smoking. Now he complains that I am fat, have high BP and cholesterol

 

[jandrew]

Simple. People who vape are more well rounded individuals.

 

[Beamslider]

It's really simple. You eat too much you put on weight especially if you sit around all day.

Not a thing to do with vaping

 

[sorrynomore]

Hmmmm...I'm in my 60's,been vaping since 2014.In that time I haven't gained any weight whatsoever (123ish pounds).I wish I could gain a few pounds vaping though,cause on a really windy day it feels like I'm a gonna be blown end over end down the road....

Food inhibits hunger. Smoking and vaping don't.

 

[barkfunklerbunk]

I was very slim while smoking for 15 years, and now I'm still slim but powerfully built after vaping for 6 years. But vaping has nothing to do with that. Might have something to do with eating mostly whole organic foods, having highly physical jobs, walking a lot, getting mostly good sleep, and abstaining from alcohol and drugs.. although this coincided with quitting cigs.

Smoking inhibits hunger...vaping doesn't.

This one I agree with....but if we can get our sugar tastes in vaping then we really don't need to eat it in rl. Altho, then some people regain their taste buds after years of smoking they may go a little overboard on rediscovering what things really taste like.

LOL

Just updating my elderliness. The last avatar was a couple years old That's all grey hair, not blonde.

I also think it's a myth that you get uglier as you age. I disbelieve it. I also look at older people, really LOOK without my cultural filter on. It's fun.

Things change I guess. IDK how cougars do it. I look at most 21 year old boys and think, "Ewwwww that would be like committing incest at worst and some sort of horrible crime, at best."

[Vape Muppet]

I'll have you know that this muppet is a very slim vaper. I have lovely long green legs and webbed feet which I like to dip in my pond while vaping one of my many RTA's and watching the sun go down. I also like to sleep in early mornings and can't function until I've had my first coffee. So if you're in the area and you like lithe frogs give me a call.

but if we can get our sugar tastes in vaping then we really don't need to eat it in rl

vaping flavours just makes me crave cigs/vaping

food and nicotine shouldn't mix for me, one follows the other. Not together

but, that's just me
