Nicotine withdrawal doesn't affect my appetite. I'm just as hungry when I have a pack as to when I haven't had a smoke in a few days.
 
Cigarettes are an appetite suppressant.

On a side note, I gained no weight after quitting. Maybe an initial +5 pounds or something, but it disappeared into my regular fat.

That's the secret right there. Just have enough fat that the new fat disappears into the old fat.
