An apple a day....
Hello MFP. Kind of a strange question. Looking to see if anyone has had this happen to them before. When I eat apples, my face sweats.

This is a problem because…

I quit smoking, its been alittle over a month. I have gained 4 lbs. My weight fluctuates usually but this 4 lbs stuck even after the "Monthly fluctuations".
