Friend and I are in disagreement so looking for outside perspective.
I stupidly took up vaping a year ago. I wish I hadn’t, it started off on social occasions to avoid smoking but as with any addictive thing I had them more and more and now vape every day.
So the thing is, I’ve lost weight recently. Around 1 stone, I was slightly overweight about 11 stone 4 and now fluctuate around 10st 4-6 lbs. This is literally down to me not eating as much because the nicotine has curbed my appetite a lot. Friend is now saying I should be seeing a GP over this? But I think surely I just need to stop vaping myself and I could stand to lose a bit more weight anyway as I carry a lot of fat on my stomach. She is worried I am now on a high from weight loss and won’t want to stop. I have struggled with disordered eating (starving then bingeing) but I think this would be a waste of NHS time and it’s up to me to figure out?
any perspective please?
AIBU?
AIBU this is not GP worthy?

Is there any truth to this?
Why did you take up vaping? It sounds like you were not smoking before, so what was the reason for starting to vape?

Honestly, this sort of thing is why we can't get GP appointments nowadays!
