Just a few reminders...

# of lung cancers diagnosed per year: 175,000

# of new diabetes cases each year: 1.3 million

70% of heart disease (number one killer) is related to obesity

80% of type II diabetes is related to obesity

#1 leading cause of death in children: accidents

So yeah... be sure not to smoke in the car on your way to McDonald's to get your kids some more burgers and fries to fuel them up before riding those 4-wheelers and playing with the pet pit bull and rottie!

They can start citing me for smoking when they start citing all the parents who feed their kids junk food.

I know quitting smoking is hard to do. All of my brothers and sisters smoke and have since they were teenagers. Out of 7 children I am the only one who didn't smoke ever. My mom and dad both smoked also. I have seen my family members try to quit without success except my dad who quit 10 years ago. I am not trying to start a fight over smoking and I do believe you have the right to smoke if you want to because it is your body. I wouldn't want anyone telling me that I am overweight and therefore can't have a piece of pie with my meal where others can see me eat it.
