I switched to vaping in anticipation of the surgery. I dropped down to 0mg of nicotine right before the surgery, and now I am at 3mg.

I waited about 5 days.

I Like to mix my flavors. If I can't find a 3, I will mix a 0mg with a 6mg.

I also vape. I buy online. I've gone from 0 all the way up to 24 back down to 18. I'm currently on 18, but usage way down. I found if I use higher nicotine, I use it way less often. That's me. But I'm way farther out. And I'm glad I'm vaping, as I started smoking at 12, only quitting sporadically during pregnancies and nursing over the years, never quite keeping off long term, or more than two years.

My tank holds the equivalent of a pack, it takes me two and a half days to use it. I used to smoke a pack and a half a day. It's an improvement.

ETA: I would give yourself a little time to heal, but I recently had surgery and vaped before and after with surgeon's ok. No issues.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
