Hi jaki,
yes, good point - drinking more water = dampening of the appetite so to speak.
Hubbs and I are so enthusiastic about vaping - he has converted a woman at work and has given her a cloud9 business card, and I am in the process of converting my son and my brother.
I am on a vaping mission lol!!
We cleaned the car last weekend, and it is fandabbydozy that it doesn't stink of stale cigs and the ashtray is now used for loose change!
Why oh why did I not follow up on the vaping thread on the ebay Q&A board AGES ago......
But I'm here now. xx

Lettie, you're a sight for sore eyes... or something like that Believe it or not, I drink LESS since I changed from smoking to vaping - but I was in a very bad state towards the end, I had to drink constantly (water, tea, coffee). Keep it up, and keep posting, please! scylla

Lettie wow, fantastic that you've taken to the vaping so well and I'm so glad you love your Riva's. After nearly 4 weeks (will be 4 week anniversary on sunday) I've had a couple of iffy days; not been getting good vapes, either too hot, too much vapor or just not feeling satisfied, but there again I've had a horrible tough week.
Strangely though I've been getting annoyed with my batteries, atties, juice and filler, but not once have I felt like having an analogue so I'm obviously just taking my stress, hurt and anger out on the ecig.
I initially found that I had a very dry mouth and sore tongue and that I was drinking more fluid to compensate. I still get that sometimes, but have found that my old atties are sometimes getting very hot and the vapor that's coming out is very hot so this is maybe no helping. I've also found that because I love the Aftershock so much I've been using it like sweets so that's not helped my tongue.
I think we're on a long wave learning curve and that it's going to take a good while for all this to be totally second nature. Sometimes I feel like I'm journeyed to a big open space and I'm struggling to find that happy part in the middle.
Sadly for me I find that I am compensating something with cake and chocolate, but I think this could be more the from the excess stress that I'm going through at the moment rather than a change of smoking habit. Time will tell. But no matter what I know that I am 30- or 40% healthier than I was 4 weeks ago and I know for a fact that after a few more months that figure will be 100% so I'm converted for life.

Hi Scylla, and lovely to be here - I'll no doubt be posting my trials and errors for a good while yet! **Wish I knew how to do smilies on here.....**
Dee (((((xx))))) Poor you! I really do hope life starts getting better for you VERY soon! I also have been stressed with one thing and another just lately, and I must be honest and say that I am so grateful that the e-cig and this forum came along when they did as they have both taken my mind off the rubbish in my life and given me something else to focus on - does that make sense?
Well, just to let you know that the vaping party went pretty good! 6 cans off beer, a bottle of wine, and 7 juices tested. I liked them all, but hubbs only liked the tobacco flavoured ones.......
That leaves the Pina Colada and Aftershock ones purely for me! I love the Aftershock.
Toomorrow is another day, and hubbs is taking his little riva friend to work with him for the first time. Bless him, he is panicking about leaving his roll-ups at home!
Catch you all tomorrow - I cooked a chilli tonight with fresh chillies, and I have flaming well just rubbed me eyes!!!!!! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Ouch - chilli in eye Lettie To get smilies, just click "reply" on the bottom right, on the blue bar, under the last post. You won't get smilies on "quick reply" which I suspect is what you're doing?

It's either bed and 30 mins reading me brilliant book, or crack open another bottle of wine, fill me cart with aftershock.......... bed must win I'm afraid. Catch you tomorrow.

Thank you Chrissie for the hug.
Oh don't worry about daft old me - my stress is self inflicted!
I have a lovely son and daughter, both have their own homes, daughter has a baby son, son has a son due in October...........but their partners are a PITA!!!!
Well I suppose they are not really, I suppose it's because my daughter confides in me too much, and son doesn't confide in me at all........and I am one of those PITA mums that thinks NO-ONE is good enough for their kids, so i set myself up for a lot of falls that are entirely my own fault.
But I have a fantastic hubby who loves me warts and all, a lovely home, and I don't need to work - so I don't. Suppose I have too much time on my hands to be truthful- and I think I am turning in to my Mother (whi is a beautiful, kind, generous woman, but a right old nosy bug*er Lol!
