I have not had a cigarette in 7 days. My intentions are to finally quit for good. I have been eating everything that has not run from me for the last week and can feel my size 7 frame starting to explode.
I can only assume that since I am no longer spending my time smoking that now I am trying to fill that time with eating. Anyone else out there experience this and if so how did you manage these cravings?

Even if I dont replace my smoking with constant eating or dont change my eating habits at all will stopping smoking still make me gain weight? If so why and how do I stop it from happening? Also any suggestions on how to stay confident and not give in to my cravings (cause its only been a day and im going crazy). Thanks so much for any help.

I have just quit smoking and if I do not increase my intake of food will I still gain weight. I ate around 1500 calories a day but I also smoked heaps so if I continue eating 1500 a day and not smoking will I gain? Will my metabolism slow down?

I quit smoking 3 weeks ago and didn’t gain any weight until last week. I found it a bit odd that I gained so much weight because I’d been working out a lot. Is the weight gain due to stopping smoking? Does weight gain happen that long after quitting? Is it temporary? I don’t like that my pants won’t button.

i am trying to quit smoking cigarettes but i want to know how much weight i will gain in the process

How do you stop from gaining weight? Last time I quit I gained 40 lbs in one year. I was sick of being a hoss and started smoking again. I lost the weight. Now I quit again and am on an exercise program, but I still have urges to eat more. Are there any pills that suppress your appetite?

It will almost be a year since I quit smoking cigs. I quit cold turkey when I became pregnant. Obviously, I gained weight b/c of the pregnancy, but could it also be b/c I quit smoking? I don’t substitute food for nicotine. Is there a physiological reason as to why one gains weight or is it psychological?

i just started working out like running…and i know if i stop smoking my endurance will go up – but ive heard that you gain weight when you quit smoking is this true?
