Smoking and weight loss

Other than taking the edge off your appetite, how else does smoking stop you putting on weight (apart than from dying from the habit)?
It's just that my mate now smokes but he eats as much as he did before AND he's still losing weight. Does it affect the metabolism or something?

I'll make sure that I use <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif"> in all my further posts, I don't want to come under the wrath of j9 and gfm again!
Anyway, I thought the whole point of having a 'smile' for sarcastic was, that you used it when you were being sarcastic?
Just me then? <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/rolleyes.gif">

<IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif">.
<IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/rolleyes.gif"> is a sorta frowned apon smilie whereas <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif"> is a sarcastic-type of smilie in most cases.
Am i making sence? Probably not <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/tongue.gif">

<IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/confused.gif"> That made sense! No, I know what you mean, cos <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/biggrin.gif"> is a cheesy smile.
"I feel great", I lied(to save your feelings)
You wonderful link posters just keep on link posting, I say!!!!
And staying off topic, how do you get all those added smilies? You use more than the FAQ tells us about ... <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/frown.gif">

ok right i think its because the smokey stuff clogs up ure heart and lungs, so ure body has to work harder to pump round blood etc etc, thus increasing ure metabolism. and um, i hav heard that it kills hunger. hop e that helps
Thanks Charley *hugs* - that makes a lot of sense! <IMG alt="image" alt="image" SRC="http://www.thesite.org/ubb/smile.gif">
