Patches are too hard. Use Zyban!!! It will work plus you don't just quit cold turkey, but trust me by the third week you don't even desire a cigarette. It seems like you are do too much too soon. I would just do one thing and than another etc. You sound like you are doing a complete life change. good luck to you, but that is hard to do.

Problem is, if I quit smoking first, I'll gain even more weight.

Quitting smoking later isn't an option. For some reason Dana Reeve's death was a wakeup call for me, probably because we're the same age. I want to take advantage of that effect it's had on me.

I've decided that if I'm going to go off, I'll go off the diet before I'll go off the smoking wagon.

That's what I keep telling myself anyway...
