Smoking and going to the loo?

I notice that when i started smoking 2 years ago i pooed twice a day! now ive given up for a month and only go twice a day? no diet change! anyone else experienced this? becky x

I MEAN I ONLY GO ONCE A DAY NOW

Well not necessarily!! I smoke as well but it seems that coffee has that effect on me!!
(I sometimes go without a ciggie for a whole day if there are nonsmokers around and I've been a smoker for ages!!

erm...when smoking you went twice a day and now only twice a day....you've got something wrong there

EDIT

Right. nicotine acts as a diuretic and also speeds your metabolic rate, an increased metabolic rate would make your gut work faster too so you'd need to go more often. Chances are now its only once a day its slightly looser as you'll expell some of the extra water youre carrying...this extra water weight gain does apparently even out tho i'm still waiting.
I'm on week 6 of quitting


Well done, good luck and keep it up

it was your body getting rid of the toxins from the cigarettes...its just triggered by the brain to get rid of toxins fast...thats all...
