Smoking Damages Your Taste Buds: The more you smoke the more damage you do to your taste buds. Over time the chemicals and tar in cigarettes coat the inside of your mouth and cover your taste buds meaning that they become less and less effective. As your taste buds become progressively hampered the food you eat becomes increasingly bland. Therefore, you do not enjoy your food as much as you once did and there is less temptation to carry on eating. You start to eat until your hunger is satisfied and not for enjoyment which means you eat less. Since you are eating less the logical result is for you to lose weight.
But i seriously advice you not to smoke because you would really really regret it + smoking has many disadvantages. to twelll you the truth I'd rather be fat than start smoking.

∙ 14y agoIf you're a smoker, you're likely thinner than others. So, if you cut down smoking or quit altogether, you'll pile on the pounds, though no one knows why this is so.....Most likely is because nicotine is an appetite suppressant and seemingly can raise your metabolic rate.....
The US National Center for Health Statistics calculates that smokers kicking the habit have been responsible for a small but significant portion of the US obesity epidemic.
The Center works out that smokers who quit in the previous decade are more likely to be obese than smokers and those who never smoke. Among men, almost 50% of the quitters are obese compared with 37% of non-smokers and 28% of smokers.
