Why am i losing weight since ive stopped smoking? -

Im 6-2 and only weigh 74 kilogram but since ive stopped smoking I can see fat develpoing on my hips and belly. Why is this and can i prevent it?Because the tar in your lungs is fading away,
also when you smoke you might do something else with it, like drink coffee or eat sweets, so you-ve stopped doing that making your belly go down which is goodIts common for people who quit smoking to start eating more. Its an oral fixation thing. Try chewing gum or toothpicks when you crave cigarettes. FYI; once you are addicted to smoking you will always crave them but less and less frequently as time goes by. Been 7 years since I quit and I still crave for cigarettes when I drink coffee or beer.losing or gaining weight? you say you see fat developing on your hips and belly.. so you-re gaining. smoking suppresses your appetite so I-m guessing now that you-ve stopped smoking, you-re naturally eating more. Make sure you-re exercising and watching your diet.smoking curbs the appetite so you are probably eating a little more than you used to. try doing some crunches and sit ups every night or morningSmoking increases your heart rate...try aerobic excersise for 20 minutes every time you would have had a cigarette...that should cure the problem.smokeing also helps you store fat btwdude the answer is to train...smoking is never the answerWell,i-m not sure why bt i quit smoking couple of months ago n i lost weigt too..I guess its normal..I-m not sure how to prevent it bt u cld try not to think about smoking..That was what i did bt it took me quite some time to get over it=) Maybe u cld find something that u like to do so much n do it..After awhile everything will be back to normal..
