If you look to other things to keep you busy besides eating ur craving off, youll be fine. im sure already know from smoking that it curbs your appetite so alot of the time, you arent hungry.
In fact - giving up is easy, and the best thing you can do for your mind and body. You may even find that your metabolism changes which will make you thinner anyway!!
Good luck!
Both my parents gave up smoking, neither of them used food nor alcohol as a substitute - They both gained weight.
Isn't it due to difference in metabolism from smoking to non smoking??
