JD, I have found the opposite. Now that I smoke too much, if I don't within a week almost always I will have dropped below 150 lbs, I am usually 160-165. I don't eat until I smoke, luckily I smoke every day right after I wake up. It gets a lot easier after you get back into eating without smoking, but for a while you feel off.. It's definatly a psychological thing.
