Yes, I put on a few pounds after quitting smoking too. It sneaks up on you. When the kids comment on my tummy I say its a food baby in there lol. Good luck with stopping eating so much eating shite! Maybe drink a glass of water every time the snout urge hits? Create a healthy habit to associate with when you have that nicotine urge.
That is a very good idea. You cant have enough water. Oh no siree bob!
It shows that smokinf really does boost your metabolism a wee bit. Not obviously in a good way. I will battle through!
