I Hate Cigarettes

[center]WE ALL KNOW ABOUT THE HEALTH RISKS NOW.

But when I was a kid, not only was it not told, it was contradicted by the ads. I started smoking when I was eleven years old. I remember hating it, but it was the cool thing to do, and it was actually good for you.

OR

So I believed.

@bearinthebigbluehouse: just a personal note here. I quit smoking 21 years ago. I didn't start gaining weight until I retired, 4 years ago. I had work that was very physically demanding, and I ate properly.

Then I retired. Started eating whatever was handy, and started living a much more sedentary life style. That's when the weight gain began.

What else changed in your mother's life when she quit smoking?

@bearinthebigbluehouse: with vaping you just trade an unknown for a known toxin, in addition to the nicotine!
