just quit, if you are only smoking 2-3 a day quiting should be easy for you.
But let me guess, when you smoke you feel like poo but its hard because someone else near you smokes, after that coffee in the morn. I just have to have one..after eating I need a smoke.. think of this.

The chemicals in tobacco smoke harm your blood cells and damage the function of your heart. This damage increases your risk for:

Atherosclerosis, a disease in which a waxy substance called plaque builds up in your arteries
Aneurysms, which are bulging blood vessels that can burst and cause death
Coronary heart disease (CHD), which happens when plaque builds up in the arteries
Heart attack and damage to your arteries
Heart disease
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD), a condition in which plaque builds up in the arteries that carry blood to the head, organs, and limbs
Stroke, which is sudden death of brain cells caused by blood clots or bleeding


Breathing tobacco smoke can even change your blood chemistry and damage your blood vessels. As you inhale smoke, cells that line your body’s blood vessels react to its chemicals. Your heart rate and blood pressure go up and your blood vessels thicken and narrow.

still want to smoke ? if so we will be hearing alot more from you on this site.
