Stay Busy if You Are Giving Up Smoking


The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics lists these suggestions to help curb weight gain when quitting smoking:
  • Keep your hands busy by drawing, knitting or doing puzzles.
  • Try to cut back on your caffeine intake, as it's often associated with smoking.
  • Get plenty of sleep so you feel rested.
  • Instead of taking a cigarette break, go for a brisk walk.
  • Have plenty of healthy, convenient foods on hand for snacking, such as low-fat dairy foods.
