Being a smoker, I'm pleased hearing that.

Not totally new, anyway, and easy to use for opposite meaning.

In my country is available since years a sort of humoristic advertising telling about: smoking helps you in becoming slimmer.

The smoker in this picture is a skeleton.

Problem is, once you quit, you gain weight even if youre not stuffing anything down the pipe. Now wheres me pipe?, yarrrrrrrrrr

Even though I'm not a smoker...I'm surprised at all of the smoking bans going around. I heard on the news last night that a few baseball stadiums have banned smoking except in 'designated areas outside the stadium'. How can they be afraid of second hand smoke issues in an open air stadium? Numerous health institutions have even told their employees that they couldn't smoke in their car on the employer parking lot and if you get caught walking across the street to light up, you get a warning or write up on your record dooming you to not receiving a merrit raise.

Reason people put on weight after quitting is because their metabolism slows down to what it should be. Smoking regularly affects the metabolism. And when you stop your body has to basically self-right itself.

I don't consider my own smoking on weekends particularly harmful, 2 or 3 ciggies (menthol only) and 2 cigars and thats my lot per week. Smoking gives you a sort of, "hunger satisfied" feeling so that is why it helps combat eating in that respect, but if you do eat a smoker is as prone to weight gain as anybody.
