How Long After Quitting Smoking Does Your Metabolism Become Normal?
Question by two_kee_kees: How long after quitting smoking does your metabolism become normal?
I quit smoking in January, and I swear my metabolism slowed down a lot. I gained weight and it seems much harder to lose this weight than other times I’ve gained and lost. Is it something to do with my quitting smoking? I’m trying so hard and I feel like nothing is happening sometimes. Sometimes I feel good, but other times it’s like I’m stuck.
I’m not eating to replace smoking. In fact, I’m eating less because I’m watching my diet.

Your idea of a “normal” metabolism is probably the one you had when you smoked. That probably won’t come back. You are at a normal metabolism right now.

it has nothing to do with ur metabolism. When you smoked u ate less. It’s kinda like drug addicts, they can go for days without food as long as they get their hit. Smoking isn’t to that extreme of course, but to some extent that cigarette fills your apetite. Just drink slim fast instead of eating or something. Slim fast is soo good
