I just came back from ten miles - and I got a huge bag of sweets to 'inhale' when I feel the urge to smoke. Let's hope it works. I need to find another marathon to motivate myself, I think.

I've asked him to quit looking for his own place given that he now has less income and less structure in his life.
Oh man, I'm so sorry to hear that. It sounds like a really crappy time for both you and him. May I ask what he does?
