I am a recent sleever, ( June 8th ) and I was so blessed to find Vaping as an easier way to quit smoking. You can start out with a higher nicotine level and then gradually down to zero nicotine. It completely took the urge away after over 30+ years of smoking almost two packs a day. You leave the anxiety and panic over quitting at the counter! I realize there are lots of people who don't understand vaping and will probably get attacked, but its so much better than taking the risks of medication that has side effects a mile long and you can't take it if you suffer from anxiety and depression. I think there are a lot of us with weight issues that would fall into this category. So I have found a juice company that is willing to help and give anyone on here a major discount ( 25% off ) for the juices to help you get started. I am not advertising this company, just giving a gift.

Go to www.luxeliquidvapor.com and see the wide varieties they offer in the three lines they make. 100% USA made and award winning. Use discount code bpal for your discount.

I wish you much success!!

you both are doing so well with that habit. I never had it but my son does and I watched my mom die from throat cancer that started inn her mouth (from cigarettes). he has a vapor cig but I cant quite get him to kick the regular cigs to the curb. I have bought him the liquid with very little (or none) nicotine and he didn't notice. I know....wicked.

You vape even before surgery? I thought we was suppose to stop smoking two months before I know it was zero nicotine but I thought we couldn't even smoke that

That's how I quit 2 months before surgery, too! I even lost interest in vaping after I cut out the nicotine. Been 13 months smoke free :)

I don't get the hate for vaping. It's so much better than those nasty carcinogens found in cigarettes. It's just Water VAPOR. But still people are all up in arms about how we don't know the effects of long term vaping, and there's still a smell and BLAH BLAH BLAH.

It helps people quit. It's not poison like cigs are. I think they are a great alternative to lighting up. But people love to control people's lives and take away their personal freedoms any way they can.

Rant over.

@@scarlep vaping is not smoking and as long as it's zero nicotine juice it won't effect surgery at all.

I have a hex ohm box mod and an Atlantis tank. They are pretty spendy but works so good you never have to worry about getting another one. There are tons of other beginner ones out There. Hookah actually is tobacco so it's a completely different animal altogether

Congrats to the cig quitters. How come no one talks about the benefit of no cig butts all over? I see them everywhere and they certainly go down the sewer drains( to the ocean here)

Seems like no nicotine, no awful smell around and on you, and no butts=winning formula. I do know how addicting cigs are and I am in Favor of anything that helps!

Do you suppose big tobacco companies are pushing the agenda on no vapes? Just wondering.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
