Hi tfarah,
the parts of your brain that cause you to have a hard time quitting smoking involves addiction. The part of our brains/bodies that involes over eating involves normal body function control, including hunger. They are two completely seperate and distinct areas. I've tried accupuncture and it did nothing for my weight. Depending on why you gained weight also plays a huge part in how this can work for you. Metabolic disorders, medical conditions and medicines that can cause weight gain don't adhere to any rules our bodies normally dictate. It becomes a different ball game, and all rules are null and void, for the most part. Accupuncture has the possibilities to reduce cravings, depending on the person. But if your weight gain is based on a metabolic disorder or any kind of medical condition that can cause weight gain, it's not liklely that it will help.
