Anyone Notice Growing a Tummy Yourself After Smoke Pipes on the Long Term?

See any decrease in aerodynamics with this wing?

Ahhh, so yours is trimmed for downforce. Mine is trimmed for lift. I only weigh myself in the wind

Nope ... my belly is from beer, not the pipe :P

Nah, I’ve been smoking a pipe for ten or twelve years now, and I haven’t gained any weight to speak of.

I smoke mostly in the summer when I a typically more active. I usually gain a bit in the winter when I am less active and not smoking. So, yeah, weight gain is probably not a concern for pipe smoking.

Supposedly a somewhat wired personality, with some unnecessary moving around and some restless movement when seated helps keep weight under control. Whereupon people probably develop health problems from stress, but remain thin. Such is life.

Just so long as you're only smoking pipe tobacco you should not be putting on weight.

Smoking the funny stuff gives you the munchies (so I've heard) therefore you eat more therefore more weight.

Stick to pipe tobacco and you'll be fine.

Today was typical; I smoked two pipes this morning whilst I went for a 9.5Km walk (err, I think that's around 6 miles in old English). As I don't smoke at home (wife is a very sensitive to smoke due to illness) then I have to go out to smoke and I may as well combine it with some exercise!

No relationship to that here.
You can put your location in your Profile—(please!—because people will forget!) and which will save questions in the future as to where you live when you later mention local stores, weather, tobacco prices, availability, regulations, location of photos, etc., etc..

Under your avatar, (top right, left most of three symbols) you choose "Account Details", which brings up "My Account". "My Location" is halfway down. Whatever you're comfortable with- town, city, county, state.

Nope, that came as a result of my deep and abiding love of ? pizza!

I haven’t weighed 120 lbs since maybe 3rd or 4th grade....maybe! Must have been the pipe smoking, yeah that’s it, it was the pipe smoking.

i guess what u r implying is right, cos whenever im smoking, i am almost defnitely munching on or drinking something(particularly creamed coffee)

Post of the year.

Nope, nicotine is an appetite suppressant so it would tend to make sense that people might lose weight rather than gaining it.

Since I picked up the pipe again a little over a year ago, I've lost 30 lbs. But that's mostly from exercise and less alcohol consumption.
