Putting On Weight. Exercise Everyday. Leads To Diabetes?

Hi I have given up smoking about a year and a half ago and put on about 18 kilo not through eating more or eating biscuits or lollies I exercise 3 to 4 time a week and watch what I eat
any tips I've been told that sometimes your body goes into a pre diabetic state when you give up smoking and that smoking takes away the nicotinate in your body.
