Hi I'm tryin,
This is what I found out:
Smoking effects a person's metabolism and also burns calories:
Smoking burns up to 200 calories a day in a heavy smoker
Because smoking burns calories, metabolism is boosted (increased) slightly, also Nicotine is an appetite suppressant.
The website I found this info on also had this short but very important and true reminder:
Weight can be lost, lungs cannot. [b]Text[/b][color=Red]Text[/color]
Hope this little piece of info helps.
