Which is more unheathy, smoking or getting really fat?!


Question: I'm a 67 y/o male. I have copd, heart disease, high blood pressure, emphazyma, and asthma.

I quite smoking on July 31 of this year, via the Chantix stop smoking plan. Prior to my stopping smoking I had gone from 252 lbs down to 218 lbs in about a year. I'm back up to around 250 labs now. Instead of smoking, I'm eating all the time!

I'm stressed out 90% of the time, too, with the craving for a cigarette. So, any opinions on this?

Yes sir, I do.
Smoking for you should be considered from now on a terrible crime. You have COPD, emphysema, asthma and HBP, you cannot, should not be allowed to smoke ever ever never never again.
You gained weight? So be it! You will lose it again if you put your heart and mind to it.
See, if you keep yourself cigarette free you will be able to get up and walk to get rid of those extra pounds, but, if you go back to smoking then you won't be able to exercise not even a little bit and you will die sooner than if you carry some extra pounds.
No to cigarettes.

Smoking.

Hey... go ahead and smoke... you have already ruined your life...and smoking will kill you! For pete's sake...READ what you wrote! How can you even consider smoking as an option!
Get a grip...and start walking! Good luck to you! Am sorry my sarcastic came out to bite you...but...geeeez!!!!... it's time for me to go for MY walk!

With all the ailments you have, smoking would be more harmful to you...stop stressing...go out for a walk if you can, do something besides crave and stress...
