I quit smoking on April 2 of this year so I have a little over two months quit now. Just wondering if anyone out there has lost weight after quitting and if so how long did you wait to "diet" after becoming smoke free? I don't want to start to cut back on food too soon and end up tempting myself into smoking. But I don't want to use my quitting smoking as an excuse to eat like a hog forever either. Oh, I'm so freakin' confused!!! Any REAL answers would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Just start some exercise it will also help get your mind off smoking and help your health!
Eat healthily at same time but dont be hard on yourself cos you are exercising so you are burning off what you eat anyway!
Walking for half an hour a day will do it! I lost weight that way.
Good luck! You are doing well!
How to quit smoking cigarettes by dissolving cravings and withdrawal. A self help method to stop smoking that really makes quitting possible.
I dont smoke but I know a lot of people who do. Everyone says quitting smoking is the hardest thing you could do. I keep seeing these anti smoking commercials on tv that says if you trying to quit, we can help. Do they really make it easier for people to quit? What do they do?
do those ads really help you quit?
I don't understand personally why cigarettes are legalized. They are extremely harmful, and nictoine has been placed either second or first as the most addictive thing to quit, trading places with heroin.
Those ads you see on TV, generally work on the same principle as getting people to stop doing heroin. They generally still contain nicotine but in a smokeless form, and step down the daily dosage to minimize the negative effects that come with withdrawls, making it easier for most people to quit than doing so "Cold Turkey" (immediately quitting).
I've also talked to people who have told me that hypnosis to quit smoking did have an effect on their ability to quit. However, like other answers have stated, you really WANT to have to quit to succeed...it's not a miracle drug.
I quit smoking 3 months ago and gained 25LBS. I eat half the food I did while smoking, almost completely cut out alcohol, and I play raquetball 3 times a week for over an hour each time! I can't figure it out. How did my body change that much from quitting. Any thoughts on what may help?
Usually the weight gain after quitting smoking is due to the following reasons:
1. Sugar craving
2. Low metabolism
3. Food craving
But in your case it seems that you are eating less and excercising regularly. You are gaining weight because of low metabolism.
Use a natural or herbal supplement which will boast your metabolism improve digestive functions and help you loose that extra weight. For further info on natural remedies for weight loss visit the following link:
I keep punishing myself about quitting smoking, and i keep smoking more, and feeling more and more anxiety and stress. Its pain. How do I stop trying to rush myself into quitting smoking, I am going about quitting smoking wrong?
Those are both symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.

Evening Chronicle (Newcastle, England), June 6, 2007
With less than a month to go before lighting-up is banned in public places, North East smokers are being reminded of services to help them quit.
New research, from the NHS Smokefree smokeless cigarettes campaign, shows the legislation will be a big incentive to quit, with 32% of smokers in the region saying it will help them stop.
And the NHS offers a range of services which can help would-be quitters and local experts offer one-to-one support.
In the last nine months 30,351 people set a quit date with their local NHS Stop Smoking Service in the North East, with 14,074 successfully quitting at four weeks.
