Try using carrot sticks as a replacement. You still have the hand to mouth routine, and you can change it by using celery, beans, or any other vegetable that can be cut to ciggie size.

Well ALL models smoke! Have you ever been to any Fashion Week? One cant breathe there at all. Its the easiest short cut. Otherwise stop eating and drinking (except pure water) after 4pm.

Carry a bottle of water at all times. It helps with the oral fixation

You can try sugarfree chewing gum and nicarette gum as this will help to keep your mouth occupied and won’t add much to your food intake.
You could also try carrot, celery, capsicum sticks with a nice healthy dip. This is a light healthy snack which will help keep you full. Also water is a good help too.
Also exercise, go for a run or a walk for 30 mins around town or at a park. Trust me, afterwards you will feel great! and now that you have stopped smoking, you will be able to breathe while your exercising!!
Good luck.
