Author Message Sean Yahoo User Posted: Mon Dec 24, 2007 1:06 pm    Post subject: Smoke and be healthy? I'm 18 and do exercise quite regularly, though I want to maintain physical fitness particularly in the aerobic sector - i go running for a couple of miles or so every morning - but I'm guilty of smoking a few times a week no more than 5 - 10 a week, but will this have a big impact on my health? Is it possible to smoke and be healthy?

I would do your best to quit.

Wouldn't you rather have healthy looking pink lungs than black looking ones?Think about it.. smoking shortens your life span.. think about your future. If you do get married and have kids, I'm sure you want to live a long life and see your grandchildren.Merry Christmas and try to quit smoking!

GOOD LUCK !!!
