So, I'm in my late 20s now and for the past few years I have been smoking. I always smoked 5 a day and my cravings have always been under control. There were specific times in the day during which I smoked. Anyway I gave up smoking last year August when I took up a new job and switched to nicotine gums.
Nicotine gums felt great. They don't have any carcinogens in them and you can have any amount although I limited myself to 2mg gums, 7 a day. It made me not go out in the middle of work to have a smoke and since I don't drink or do drugs like a degenerate I felt like I finally discarded all kinds of harmful addictive substances.
Fast forward to mid August this year and I felt like it was time to finally let go off my last mental crutch, those nicotine gums. Previously I would order them as soon as I reached my last strip because I was scared that I might relapse into smoking. This time I didn't.
What happened next was unbelievable. Suddenly I was looking to eat everything at every waking moment of my life. I was eating entire packs of Oreos with my coffee just after I have had my breakfast. I was having fries before lunch, after lunch, sandwiches as snacks half an hour after dinner and ice cream after I have had dinner. I was always hungry. I was astonished at this hunger. I had never felt hunger like this before. I understood this is nicotine withdrawal but I had imagined it would be sweats or cravings when I look at people smoking. I didn't expect this. I was consuming every 6 hours what pre-quitting me was eating in a whole day.
As a naturally thin-cel I obsessively measure my weight. I was 143lbs(65kg) a week before I quit. I was 149.7lbs(68kg) three weeks into this. Think about it. 3 kgs in 3 weeks. At this rate I would have put on 52kgs in a year. That's over 100lbs.
Side note: I was working out throughout those three weeks. It wasn't like I was just sitting on a couch and being a lard.
So I did the only natural thing to do. I started the gums again. I bought them from the nearest store, didn't even want to wait for delivery services lest the fat monster inside me destroys my body any further. After two weeks on nicotine gums again I have dropped to 67kgs.
So there you go, if you have a fat ravenous monster lurking inside you, just waiting for you to slip up once and turn you into a fat frick don't give them the opportunity, start chewing nicotine gums today. You might hate the bitterness at first but they will kill your appetite faster than the time it takes for you to walk up to your fridge in search for something to eat. And if you're one of those "normal chewing gums can also do the trick" cute twinks, frick you they don't. Neither do they have the zing of nicotine and on top of that they have sugar which just makes you thirst for more sugar.
Say NO to being fat. Say YES to Nicotine gums.

That's like...the point of this post?
You eat food because you have an appetite. You can control your appetite most of the time. In case you can't, you have an easy way to control it.

But if you need appetite suppressants to not be a fatass you deserve to be fat.
I used to be fat despite exercising so I just stopped eating so much.

You can control your appetite by just not eating so much. After a few weeks of daytime fasting you only get hungry at dinner
