I plan on quiting smoking and starting back to healthy eating (it's been a week) but I'm wondering if anybody has been successful with making these 2 drastic changes at the same time?

    Allen Carr's Easy way to quit. The book will only take a few days to read and make it easy to quit, then turn to the diet.

    I quit smoking for 3 months then got the gym, worrying if not be able to do both. Hindsight, it cost me 3 months of gym time. May as well fight sugar and nicotine cravings all at once.

    All I can say is that everyone I know who read it quit immediately, happily, and forever. But you do you. Good luck!

    I switched to vaping. So i pretty much swapped one habit for another. But i think the vaporiser is the lesser of 2 evils.

    Check out whyquit.com.
    It helped immeasurably when I quit 8 years ago. There is a great community forum, like MFP.
    It's hard, but you can do it and you will feel so much better and live so much longer. Good luck!
