Stop smoking without putting on weight

There is a popular school of thought which maintains that smoking aids weight loss and helps to keep individuals slim. This is coupled with the widespread belief that stopping smoking means getting fat. This book explains that this is not true. Firstly the book examines the reasons why people smoke, then it examines why people have weight problems. The author then links these two items and addresses the problem of losing weight and staying slim without cigarettes. She explains how to deal with stress without depending on smoking and the relevance of exercise as a source of motivation and fitness.
