Yeah, smoking. On a fitness/health site, is it unreasonable to expect that most of us don't smoke (even if we once did)? Personally, I find it rather incomprehensible that there are still people who do.

Then again, I still eat donuts, so who am I to judge?

    I am not lucky/smart enough so as to have my weight as my only problem.. It used to be the least of my problems. After an accident that kept me from doing what i loved most back then (water polo) i got myself into all kinds of substance abuse. I am clean from whatever you can think of the last 2 years. Smoking as i mentioned in the other thread is the last thing i allow to myself. Also, in greece smoking is pretty much socially acceptable

    I know it's much more socially acceptable in Europe in general, but it doesn't make it more healthy.

    However, kudos to you for your progress and your ability to overcome adversity. I don't mean to be judgmental, it's just something I don't understand, I guess. Especially on a site like this.

    Yeah, smoking. On a fitness/health site, is it unreasonable to expect that most of us don't smoke (even if we once did)? Personally, I find it rather incomprehensible that there are still people who do.

    Then again, I still eat donuts, so who am I to judge?
    Exactly...so what was the point of this topic?
