This is exactly what I needed. I started smoking at 19 because I wanted to "control" my weight levels. Since I quit, I've started overeating and I've been looking for a way to control my incontrolable "hunger" (there was no way to opt for smoking again image).

I was already overweight by 70 lbs. and am so ready to lose the excess weight now that I have become a non-smoker! I've gained 10 lbs. since I quit on April 1st, 2008 by eating every time I wanted to smoke, but that has passed. I am so uncomfortable by just gaining 10 more pounds to my already fat bod that food isn't as appealing to me as it was when I first quit smoking.

The sugar level fluctuations is a major source of distress to quitters and if they are not aware that it isn't the nicotine withdrawal but their eating habits they will often relapse either from the stress of the highs and lows in the first few days or the binging and craves that they go through in the later days/weeks of a quit.

Some of us never ate well to begin with.
Many of us have a lot to learn about giving our bodies what is needed and in a healthy and timely way.

I am glad you are going to get checked out by your doctor. As far as getting further advice online of what to do, I wouldn't put a lot of stock in getting any real differential diagnosis. At Freedom we have a strict policy of getting or giving medical advice. We only speak in general terms.

I'm cross-posting my note below in the hopes that I may attract the attention of somebody who's experienced blood sugar problems after quitting. Any personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. I'm doing pretty well with the never puff stuff, but after almost 13 days, I'm not feeling the best.
Thanks,

Thanks for the article. I am now nicotine free for 1 week, 3 days, 13 hours, and I am stuffing myself less on food now, but.... I still am. And now I understand how I am not helping myself, especially as I have all 4 of the symptoms of blood sugar fluctuations - cravings, excessive thirst, water retention, and mood swings.

This article is great and I printed it out to bring with me to my doctor's office. There are several problems that she talks about that apply to me. I have had some tests; but, there has been a problem identifying anything. I wonder if this will help. It certainly can't hurt. Thanks again.

It is so important for everyone to recognize that life goes on without smoking. While smoking causes many problems and aggravates a whole bunch others that it may not cause, other things can go wrong with your body even if you quit or even if you never smoked. The more everyone knows about measures that can be taken to improve general health, the better.

FABULOUS article! One, such as me, who has been prone to anxiety since puberty, and likely smoked as much to self-medicate, appreciates insight into how blood sugar may contribute to the anxiety too. Esp. regarding how adrenaline is dumped into the system when blood sugar drops.
