Ok I have seen tons of stuff about smoking and WLS. But what about vaping? What are your thoughts? Has anyone smoked and gone to vaping for WLS? I quit smoking over 10 years ago. Part of my weight problem.

My doctor would not allow even vaping. You had to be totally nicotine free for 30 days. I was vaping and slowly lowered the nicotine level until I was at zero.

Post-op - from what I understand, the problem is nicotine and ulcers. I use a vaporizer and nicotine free juice.

The whole point of this was to get healthier. Wouldn't vaping or smoking be completely contradictory to that? Fight the urge!!

I just thought I would put it out there for discussion and learn what others think. Not weather vaping is healthy or not but if others do it or do Patches or vape zero nicotine. There no info out there on the options.

Kinda the same with coffee or caffeine pills?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
