Hi dorrie
 It's SO good of you to know you're going to try again soon. All quitting takes is one successful try.One thing that helped me when I KNEW I just HAD to have something moving from hand to mouth was holding a soda straw I had cut to about a 3" length. I "smoked"  that empty, plastic straw until the need calmed down.I gained weight too and my doctors (I was seeing a bunch) all said it didn't matter ---- What mattered was me quitting and that the weight would go away. Very slowly the weight did start to drop off. I'll be holding you in my heart and wishing you the best.
