Better fat than dead. The mouth thing and the metabolism thing are both right. Nicotine makes your heart speed up and kills your appetite. Just excersize and watch what you eat.

Yes that happens when you quit smoking, but then after you lick the smoking habit you diet to lose the weight.

VERY possible. What did you replace smoking with? Ive heard that it's an oral fixation and if we replace it with food that it's the main cause of that problem. I know. I did it too.

your body is stabilising itself again. smoking increases your metabolism but so does exercise, start doing a bit of running or walking or whatever.
Congrats on giving up

Start exercising. You will feel so good. It will also tone you up and slim you down, adding years to your lifespan.

smoking actually regulates your metabolism, so it burns fat faster
