As such, you tend to enjoy it more hence eating more. As well, psychologically you need to do something with your hands and we tend to eat something small that we can hold in our fingers (so once again eating more). Exerercise more. When you would take a smoke break before spend this time on a brisk walk instead. This will burn off the calories of the extra food you are taking in due to quitting smoking. Congrats on quitting. If I could only join you in your amazing feat :) the simple answer:

But you can try telling them all the bad things about it thats what i do. But you can't make them quit because they will most likely quit when they want to quit but you can push them in the right direction. I always told my mom like when she smoked eww and i would say your making everyone around you inhale that too. Then in health class i learned how bad it was for you so i told her all the stuff i learned. Hope i helped =] Well my mom only smokes and she is actually almost totally cured by taking this new thing where you take a pill a day for a couple weeks and makes you quit.

My mum has a horrible smokers cough and my dad had a myocardial infarction last year-he came off them for a few months but mum didn't and so he started back again. You can't force them to do something they don't want to do, sorry. I've given up now-they can smoke themselves to death as long as they don't smoke around me or in my house (I had 18 years of passive smoking and won't take any more).
