Well, I've finally quit smoking after almost 25 years (probably more than that, even) on April 7, so it's been 15 days since my last smoke. I really haven't had any problems with the cigarette cravings, but now I honestly CAN NOT STOP EATING. It's been constant, like I'm starving to death, and I'm eating everything in sight. I'm so happy and proud of myself for not smoking, but is non-stop eating and re-gaining all that weight I lost worth it? I've gained 8 pounds in these 2 weeks. I don't know what to do, and I drink lots and lots of water in hopes that will make me feel full, but it doesn't help. Has anyone here quit smoking and had this problem? I almost want to cry.
