How will I feel when I quit smoking? Will I gain weight?

Many smokers gain weight when they quit, but it is usually less than 10 pounds. Eat a healthy diet, stay active, and try not to let weight gain distract you from your main goal—quitting smoking. Some of the medications to help you quit may help delay weight gain. Some research suggests that metabolism can sometimes change when you quit smoking, but in general this is not particularly significant. Snacks that replace cigarettes seem to cause the problem, especially if they are sweet. You should try to keep your snacks under control or eat low carb food such as fruits. As you will feel fitter when you quit smoking. Try increasing exercise. It can be part of the new you. It keeps your body and your mind occupied and active.
