Can you lose weight and quit smoking at the same time?
Of course.

Not everyone will get fat if they quit smoking. Some smokers really gained weight after quitting smoking. People who get fat because they quit smoking will only gain an average of 2 ~ 5 kilograms in a period of time. This is because the stimulation of smoke to the body disappears, the state of various organs gradually improves and the appetite increases. If they don't do more physical exercise, they will gain weight.

Some people choose to quit smoking by sugaring, but it may actually aggravate their addiction. Zou explained that experiments have proved that acidic body fluids can promote the excretion of nicotine, and when nicotine is exhausted, you will be eager to smoke a second cigarette. Sugar is a kind of physiological acid food, which may aggravate smoking addiction and is not conducive to quitting smoking.

Once a smoker is addicted, when he stops smoking, he will have withdrawal symptoms such as irritability, anxiety, depression, inattention, insomnia, slow heart rate and increased appetite, which is the uncomfortable feeling of smokers after quitting smoking.

Some people smoke for many years, but they get sick after giving up smoking. This is not because they quit smoking, but because they had basic diseases before they quit smoking. The harm of smoking has latency and lag, so getting sick after quitting smoking is not directly related to quitting smoking.

Extended data:

Zhai Tiemin, Ph.D., Health Development Research Center of the National Health and Family Planning Commission, pointed out that personal behavior factors deserve attention. The research shows that every time the smoking rate increases 10%, the total health expenditure will increase1.3%; Obese people spend 34% more on health care than normal weight people.

Therefore, Zhai Tiemin put forward a hypothesis after decomposing the influencing factors of health expenditure growth from 20 15 to 2035. "If the smoking rate is reduced by 50%, the incidence of circulatory and respiratory diseases will decrease. In 2035, China's recurrent health expenditure is expected to drop by 3.5%, saving 0.33% of GDP in that year;

If the prevalence of hypertension is reduced by 25%, it is estimated that the recurrent health expenditure will be reduced by 3.4% in 2035, saving 0.32% of GDP in that year. "
