Many people resist quitting smoking because they believe they will gain weight. They figure why give up one bad habit only to pick up another. Although it is true that weight gain often follows giving butts the boot, it is possible to both control your weight and be smoke free.

When lecturing about exercise and proper nutrition, I make a list of the top ten benefits (even though there are several) and always at the top of the list is, “Decreases the chance of heart disease.” The last item on the list is “Weight Reduction.”
Why do I list them in that order? Because so many people think the only reason to exercise and eat right is to lose weight. Now don’t get me wrong, keeping our weight in check helps reduce our chances of heart disease, so the two work hand in hand.
