Do you have any gum that some times help... How about trying to drink water when you have the urge... Ok honest I can't say i've done this cause I still smoke.. I've tried to stop smoking before but it's never happened.. I'm weak honest I am... At least you are trying some can't like me... Have you tried talking to your doctor? They do have a pill you can take that helps with the cravings for smoking... I am going to call mine and see if that would work for me.. Not saying it might be it..

I know many people who have resisted eating temptations by chewing gum. Also, since you smoke, you may want to try the nicotine gum that helps you to quit smoking. That way, you can keep trying to quit smoking and deal with your eating problems as well. I hope this helps!

I quit smoking a few months ago, I also discovered freeze pops. Of course I did gain some weight. Its a tough habit to beat, but you can do it. If you gain a few pounds, you can deal with that later. Keep on keeping on, don't give up your quest to stop smoking. It will feel so good when you beat it. Good luck.....

I have tried cewing gum that has helped me a few times. I also took commit a lounge that did help and it worked but I started back up though.
