    I was a thin smoker. Then I was a fat smoker. Now I'm a thin non-smoker.
    Weight is about what you eat. Smoking... that's a whole other problem

    So what if it does...

    Starving yourself will help you lose weight.. Doesn't mean you should do it

    So does E. Coli if we're comparing bad ideas for losing weight...

    Well said, and funny.

    Might have already been said, nicotine blunts hunger and speeds up metabolism slightly due to adrenaline. Fight or flight stuff. It also changes the pathway in which the body oxides fat. So yes and no.
