The only downside to losing weight : smoking addiction has worsened...

I've been on a steady weight loss journey for 3 months now, keeping active with daily steps and biking to work. Have lost 12 lbs since mid-February, so it's going well.

But the thing is, I have also been a cigarette smoker for some time now, on a low-moderate level (5-6 cigs per day). However, now that I'm farther into my weight loss journey, I've been craving smoking more (I'm at 10 per day, so half a pack). At 6'3 my appetite has always been pretty big, but I'm realizing that fighting it with nicotine is not the healthiest way to do so.

I'm afraid that I'll eat more again if I try to quit smoking, as a replacement, so how do you combine trying to quit smoking and eating at a deficit?
