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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
