Makes me gain weight because I tend to snack when I smoke, lol.

Sitting on my ass smoking hookah for long durations + Stuffing my face = One Chubby Chreees :lol:

Here is an interesting article: http://www.nih.gov/researchmatters/june2011/06202011nicotine.htm

Personally, I don't like to smoke on a full stomach. I like to smoke a d eat small food. Otherwise I get the itis and want ti take a nap. However, having a full stomach never stopped me from eating... Or an empty stomach. But I'm addicted so i guess it really does make.a different.

As far as my appetite is concerned, i think I lose my appetite.

Well, i guess technically Nicotine ios an appetite suppressor, right? But it doesn't directly affect anything having to do with your weight.

makes me fat... i sit and smoke when I probably should be exercising. I don't eat when I smoke as much any more. Rather do one or the other.

'Smoking' (cigarette smoking was, I think, what was studied) lowers TSH which could slightly increase thyroid function.

I haven't correlated it with weight loss or gain for me. I don't eat/drink caloric things while I smoke so probably the worst that's happening is that I'm sitting down when I could be hiking =)
