11.Easing Worry about Weight Gain
Around 80% of smokers may put on weight after giving up smoking. As compared to women, men are more likely to gain weight after quitting smoking.
The inclination to gain weight after quitting has always been a source of worry to smokers who wish to quit. The fret of putting weight on is so overpowering that many smokers, especially women who otherwise would wish to, never quit smoking. Moreover, many of those who lately gave up smoking resume it again after being overwhelmed by a bathroom scale that bounces up several pounds. The truth is that the gain is rarely permanent and can be avoided by adopting balancing measures such as a healthy diet and an exercise plan.
