First let me say I would, at this point, respectfully request that those who are not smokers decline from commenting to this post. I am not posting this discussion to hear from hundreds of nonsmokers about the health risks of smoking. Guess what? Most smokers know what the health risks are...
So my question to current smokers is this... why do you continue to smoke?

Well, i smoke, but i am trying to cut down on my smoking! The reason why i don't stop, is that i like smoking, and i don't really care about if i get problems later in my life because of it! You can also get sick of eating wrong! I also eat what i like to eat! I live my life as i want to, the way where i enjoy it the most! And if i die 10 years before because of that, i dont care, as long as i can enjoy the time i'm alive!

Thank you for the response. I'm curious, would you continue to smoke if you knew that it meant you were going to die at the end of the year? I'm not asking this to attempt to get you to stop smoking, my purposes are far more personal and self-conscious for asking... Would that answer change if you knew that if you DID stop smoking you would live for another 50 years?

I keep trying to quit but my wife keeps buying them for her so I end up smoking too. I know I know bad me.. but I'll quit when she does:)
