You wont get fat from not smoking, if you don’t overeat

Another frequently-repeated rationalization for the cigarette habit is: "I'd like to quit smoking, but every time I do I gain weight. And it's worse to be over­weight than it is to smoke."

It isn't the fact that a person has stopped smoking that may cause him to gain weight. It's the fact that he substitutes the habit of overeating for the habit of smoking.

In the belief that he needs something tangible to relax tension (which he previously achieved by the mechanical movements of lighting a cigarette) a "re­formed addict" may take to eating candy bars or nib­bling on sweets . . . something to do, anything to do, in other words, to take his mind away from the pressing problems, and to get back some of those old, familiar gestures that are part of the habitual pattern of smoking.

The gesture of reaching for something, and pick­ing it up, and then placing it in the mouth. The gestures and muscle movements of the lips, mouth and jaws: as many of the gestures of smoking as can be achieved, in other words, without a cigarette. You'll soon see that this isn't necessary either.
