um yea hi asked:


My mom has been smoking since she was young and I keep telling her she should quit. She always says that she will and that she know she needs to and she will soon, but I have never seen her try to quit in the 16 years I’ve lived. What can I do to convince her? I was thinking about printing out information about different ways to quit, but I have no idea where to start. Could someone help me out with that too? Please, help me if you can.

I quit smoking, cold turkey, 2 weeks ago. I had smoked for 15 years. Since then I have had ear aches, one side at a time, and a sore throat. Is this from quitting smoking? Or just a coincidence?

I’ve been smoking for the past 5-6 years, I **** it and it’s disgusting. I want to quit. I’ve heard that if you quit smoking you gain a ton of weight, is this true or just one of those myths? If you do gain weight than why? From eating more to fight the cravings or is it some chemical in your body? I’ve heard both of those.

trannyboy asked:


My granmother wants to smoke and is slowly killing herself which is tearing my mother up. So my mom yells at my gran, who gives in and has cut down the smoking dramatically. My gran is sick with COPD and can barely breathe.

I am a smoker who is trying to quit but when I am around my gran wants to smoke more. So everyone wants me to yell at her not to smoke but I don’t even like yelling. I have tried talking with her as an adult but there is real langauge barriers.

So whats the right choice?

Is it harder to lose weight after you quit smoking?

JBR asked:


I quit smoking four months ago, and have gained quite a bit of weight. I know I eat too much and I’m sure it’s because I am substituting smoking with food. Anyway, I worked out and dieted ******** for over a month and nothing happened. Normally I lose weight relatively quickly if I am working my **** off at the gym and watching my diet. Is this lack of weight loss due to my quitting smoking? I smoked for 9 years.
