A member asked:
Why would nicotine addiction make me fat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It wouldn't.: It is undoubtedly not the nicotine or the addiction that is to blame. More likely, the same emotional problems that are causing you to smoke and possibly to keep you addicted are the same things which are causing you to overeat and to gain weight. If you eat like a bird and still gain weight, then perhaps the two problems are unrelated.
