Smoking and Weight Loss

Have you ever heard that most female models are advised to smoke? Model as they have to slim and a size zero should have very less weight and waist, but is there any connection is smoking and weight loss. The answer is yes.

Smoking increases your metabolism rate; I will not explain how it does it. Bottom line is that the people who smoke, their body needs more energy therefore their rate which calories burn is also very fast. Because of high calorie burn rate, their metabolism rate is also higher.

Nicotine also delays gastric-emptying of the stomach, therefore the food stays in the stomach for long, and people do not feel and urge to eat, definitely, when people will eat less they will gain less weight or actually will lose weight.

Studies show that most of the women, who start smoking, do this to lose weight. While most of the people who do not quit smoking think that if they will quit smoking, they will gain weight. Losing weight and being slim has become such an obsession that people can take any road, they think will lead to being thin.

People do not see the harmful effects of cigarrettes; they just see the weight loss. Well, let me remind you that cigarette can cause cancer and many other diseases that are fatal. Is it not better to be fat then to be dead?

While it is true that if one stops smoking they will most likely gain weight but at the same time it is also true that if they do not stop smoking a cigarette they are risking their life with such devastating disease they cannot even imagine of.

Instead of smoking spend the time on some healthy activity or some exercise, you can buy exercise equipment with the money you save.
