A friend of mine has been smoking alot lately, and also eating more. However she seems to be loosing weight instead of gaining. Anyone know why this might be?

The person may be ill. They might want to have this checked out. They may be under stress. The smoking may have something to do with it, but not if they are losing a great deal of weight.

Could be that eating more frequently her body doesn't store as much as fat since it can expect to get more nutrients on a regular basis. This is especially true if she is eating kind of the right foods and getting some exercise.

the reason for this is bc they have a very high metabolism. basically these people can eat as much of whatever the want and not gain an ounce bc their body metabolizes the food faster than that food can turn into fat cells

well i know that when you smoke it affects your digestive system´s performance, and the lack of oxygen makes your body work harder to carry out its functions, she should drink lots of cold water which helps with the craving of quitting smoking and also makes your body burn fat to raise its temperature
