Does smoking really help you lose weight?

Question:

If so, why?

Answers:
I think it also raises your metabolism-- but I wouldn't recommend this as a method of weight loss.

I am just so happy you spelled "lose" right! Thank you!

Other Answers:
No.
It just makes you smell bad, ruins your health, and makes you a social misfit.

No, It just helps you die of cancer.

Think it may be like an appetite suppressant. Also, if you are smoking all day, it may be very hard to eat at the same time. Personally, I don't know how you can taste food after choking on nicotine all day.

You loose your taste for food so yeah you do not want to eat.but then you DIE.

Uh, yeah, but in the most retarded way. When you are addicted to it, it changes the way you taste because of the nicotine and stuff. Then you just crave for more nicotine because you are so addicted that you can give up anything but nicotine (cigarette in general, nicotine is what gets you addicted in a cigarette). But it's crap since it gives you yellow teeth and if you don't stop, you'll die of cancer and stuff. Like I said, it's retarded.

No, when someone quits smoking, many times they will gain weight. It doesn't work the other way. You don't lose weight when you START smoking. BUT, if you keep smoking, you can look forward to losing weight as you are dying a painful death from advanced lung cancer.

well it doesnt help you lose weight but people tend to put on weight when they quit because instead of smoking a cig, they eat.

so it doesnt help you LOSE weight

if that makes sense

in the end you either quit and gain weight
and end up smoking again to get back to where you started

but it sucks because when ou smoke you get out of breathe and you cant exercise so its like whats the point

i dont smoke but even when im around people that smoke i get tired and stuff

so it actually doesnt make you lose weight or help

if it does help you lose weight some weird way how

i mean id rather be a bit heavy and live longer
than be dead of like tarry lungs and not be able to even walk or move because of emphysema

its not worth it

exercise you lazy person
