If i stop smoking will i grow? -

I-m 15 and i smoke. i would really like to know if i will grow.
This does sound stupid, but i actually cant wait to grow.
Answer-s Pleaseeeeee?Your maximum height potential was determined at the moment of conception by your genetics. Diseases, injuries, malnutrition and toxins can reduce it, but you cant exceed it. There is certainly evidence that teenage boys who smoke end up about 1 inch shorter that predicted, but I can find no similar evidence that it has definitely been shown to stunt growth in teenage girls. Interestingly though it does not appear to have any effect on reducing their weight either, making a myth of the justification often given by young girls that they smoke either to lose weight or to keep from gaining weight.

I am sure that you are already aware that it 50% of smokers die as a result of smoking and that it is the second commonest cause of death worldwide, ( the first is all infectious diseases.)No, I dont think smoking stunts your growth. I think this is just used as a scare tactic to stop young people from smoking.
I stated smoking at 12, and was 5 foot nothing! Im 25 now and im 6 foot 3 so it didnt effect me anyway. But it definately makes you unhealthier, can cause cancer, and is very addictive. I am in the progress of giving up now and its not easy going cold turkey!
Dont bother with them, you dont need them.Smoking doesn-t stunt your growth like people say. Ask any doctor. But my advise to you is to quit now while you still can. At this point you are so young - not addicted. It wont help you grow if you dont stop, but it will keep you healthy. I wish i had never started smoking. If i could do it again, i would never ever touch a smoke.No sorry, you wont grow when you give up smoking. its all in the genetics.
My family smoked from a early age and they are just about 6 foot.
But you should give up while you are young. It is not cool anymore.It-s known that smoking stunts your growth. You were stupid to start smoking in the first place.

Ne-er mind, people like you go far in politics, no doubt you-ll be PM one day.Why are you even smoking?? Its bad for your health and especially at 15. Its so unattractive to have to smell someone whose hair and clothes smell like smoke.Smoking does stunt your growth, however I wouldnt expect to grow a whole lot if you stop. I would be more worried with all the other health complications that go along with smoking.you could try it dont worry it dosent sound stupid as you probably ffeel left out... also if you stoped smoke it would be ALOT better for your health
regards
xxNo, smoking does lots of bad things but if you stop now you won-t grow!height is based on genetics - not smoking. If your parents are short - you will be too.Smoking will not help.... give up and hope, with a good diet on your side you will.

How to get you gf to stop smoking weed? -

How to get you gf to stop smoking weed? -

my gf has been smoking weed. i have told her i dont want her smoking weed cause she doesnt need to get arrested and she gets crazy and does the most ignorant stuff. when i tell her she needs to stop she keeps asking why. we want a kid but i told her that smoking weed will not help and plus i hate it when she does. does anybody know of a way to get her to stop? SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY!!you should accept her for her and if she smokes weed deal if you dont like it leave her. being high doesnt do to much. you can stil function pretty well, and think somewhat clearly, but you dont go off falling all over the place or pissy like when people drink its the total oppposit, and she has to quit on her own its not an addiction you dont get addictted to weedif she doesnt stop after you told her that, get a different gf.most potheads are ignorant and blind. they call the FD when their pot barn burns down because they have killed off their brains. honestly, leave her. potheads shouldent reproduce. (i have the same opinion of smokers as well)
just leave her, it is they only way you are going to get through that she needs to stop. it may sound harsh, but she is too stoned to have little things like words get through.She has to want to stop. If you-ve already let her know how you feel, and she hasn-t tried stopping, well...

Think of your future child and find a healthier partner.Get her -caught-. Pretend that the cops found her stash or something to really instill worry in her. Or really get her in trouble, although I don-t think she-d like you too much after that.Serious dude, she ain-t gonna stop.Knowing what I know at my present age, I-d leave her, and go looking for a healthier fish.

Think of ur future, ur lungs affecting with cancer, think of ur kids - family.hi,
be positive
I was a smoker used to take 20 cigarettes a day in the year 1993.i started it in 1982.
many times i stopped smoking, but only for hardly 2 days.In these times of stopping,i used to think,-i will never smoke hereafter words-.Further i was telling this to every person i met.That time when my friends smoking,i got a feeling of -some thing lost.-I was tempted to restart smoking.in 1993 i decided to stop smoking for ever.I did not tell this to any body.1993 may 7th i stopped smoking,I convinced my mind this way,-for this time i stop smoking,i did not throw away smoking,but at any time i can smoke and i have the right on it-For one week time i suffered to tie the temptation,used to drink water at the time of temptation.After one week, things reversed,i was feeling, the smell of cigarette was irritating me.I never used to smoke after that still time of typing this.
U can also do this, if ur will power is not lost.There is no -best way- its probably one of the hardest things one can do. I also know from experience that it can-t be done without a group, you don-t need to put any extra chemicals into your body, I would call a quit smoking hotline or find some support from a large group.I don-t smoke and I never will,I hate it,but these might work.

Every time you have a craving eat a sweet instead.every time you want to buy a pack put the money its worth in a jar and after a while you will have loads of cash! and buy your self something nice.

Smoke straws,cut them in half and smoke fresh air!

Think of how horrible you teeth,skin and fingernails are going to look in a few years,not to mention the discusting smell.

The best of look in becoming smoke free :)

But sorry to say at least mintues (maybe hours or years depending on how long you are smoking)have been REMOVED,GONE FOREVER from your life.I can-t tell you how to quit smoking,I have smoked 30 plus years and I started when I was 14.I have asthma, c.o.p.d. and right now writing to you,I have been on oxygen six months.I get chronic bronchitis and six months ago I kept falling asleep all day and they took me to a local hospital.( my body doesn-t get rid of the carbon dioxide) They life flighted me to another hospital,which I do not remember any of this.I was in a coma for three days.I had been told prior to this quit or you will die.My lungs they said, are like that of a three year old.I tried quitting by cutting down.That doe-s not last long.I tried prescriptions, didn-t work either.You probably think,what an idiot,if I went through all that I-d quit.They say it is like quitting heroin,they are right.I-m going to put on the patch and have no smokes in this house and try again and again,until I get it right.Your young I hope you do it.Do a search on yahoo,healing after you quit smoking.Read the one After the last cigarette at about.co it might give you some incentive. Good luck i hope you make it.That a hard one. My friend smoke and the way i got her to stop is burning her cigs. in a fire. If that dont work talk to some one that you really care about and ask them if they can help you stop so you can get better and not die. Yea you Will DIE IF YOU DONT STOP SMOKING.you have to want to quit. i used to smoke and i lost my cigs one day and decided i was done, so i haven-t smoked in over 2 years, but i think you have to want to quit also. the best of luck and if you really want to you can do it.Everyone prefers different things.
I managed to quit using nicotine patches and chewing gum.
It-s also good to avoid places were many people smoke, to resist temptation (:
Good luck on your way to being smoke free! :DI know this isn-t going to sound helpful but cold turkey is really the best way if you can get through those first couple days which will be the hardest you can make it


good lucknicotine patchStop smoking.therez no best way, the only way is to just stop it!!! lolz

Please tell me what is the best way to stop smoking? -

Should i stop smoking? i mean i kinda feel? -

Should i stop smoking? i mean i kinda feel? -

broken lol i cant describe it any other waySure, go ahead. There-s nothing the hospitals, drug counselors, psychotherapists, rehab facilities like better than a continuous supply of druggies to keep them occupied. Oh, did I forget to mention the funeral homes? They have a lot to gain too.
So support your local economy and do drugs.Yes you should. Everyone around you, your pets, your family even somebody walking by when your puffing away is being poisoned by second hand smoke. You should smell what a smoker reeks like. It is like nothing else in the world. As to your own body, tobacco does so many things to you I can-t list em here. Please stop. I read your update. Weed is even more dangerous. It has no prove of cancer but does a heck of a lot of worse things. It affects your sperm count. The instance of emphysema is staggering. It is also illegal.
I personally think for some people, weed , is a keyhole drug, allowing you to think of using harder drugs as recreational.you-re burning out, dude. it happens when you smoke a whole lot and you-re not used to it. 2 options:

1) keep going and you-ll get used to the feeling. of course, being used to the feeling doesn-t mean that you-ll be able to function any better - a lot of people can, but a lot of others stay burnt out and just sit around smoking all day.

2) don-t smoke for a few weeks, and then get back into it slowly.there are many beneficial reasons to smoke. tobacco smoke improves lung function in 98% of people. just make sure you do not eat spinach or exercise as these two things are known to cause many forms of cancer in otherwise healthy people.The decision to quit smoking is always a good one physically, psychologically, and economically. I see no good reason to continue smoking.No, puff away.

Its been 26 hrs since I stopped smoking cigarettes. . .? -

Its been 26 hrs since I stopped smoking cigarettes. . .? -

So for the past 9 months of my life, I-ve been devoted to trying to quit smoking cigarettes. . . And the hundred times I-ve tried to quit, I was never successful. The first day of the times trying seemed to be like hell, and went on forever and ever. I did have a couple times when I went about 3 days and started over again, but those three days were agonizing. . . But for some reason, just yesterday I threw the half smoked pack of Dave-s Light out the window of my Mini-Van and actually been doing pretty well. Not as bad withdrawal symptoms like before, and had a couple interviews for jobs today, which were kind of iffy when they got to questions I didn-t know how to answer. Has anybody ever experienced this? All of a sudden smoking just stops and life seems to be re-opening its pages to you and the symptoms seem to hardly even be there. . . It could be a mind over matter situation, without even putting my mind to it. Been a smoker for 2 years and dipping on and off in between.Replace it with something better. God is giving you a window of opportunity to make a clean break. I-ll be praying for you.It-s very much a mind over matter thing if you want to quit something you can. I think most people have a problem with quitting because part of them still wants it. If that is the case they never do quit.I think that-s the way it has to be. If you want a cigarette, you-ll have a ******* cigarette! It doesn-t matter how -dangerous- and -disgusting- people say it is, you-re your own man/woman and you-ll do what you like! But if you just don-t feel like it... :D

The same thing happened to me late last year. I-d been doing a lot of exercise and training really hard almost every day, and it just never really occurred to me as I relaxed after a heavy session to grab some baccy and roll a fag. It wasn-t a permenant thing, but at least now I know I can quit if I want to ... it lasted damn near half a year.

Stopping smoking and want to take up running? -

Stopping smoking and want to take up running? -

I recently quit smoking after 17 years of having that disgusting habit. I feel like I have finally beat it but I-m sure my lungs aren-t too happy with me. I-ve always worked out walking 4 - 7 miles 5 days a week but I would like to try running. I have never been a runner mostly because I get frustrated by my legs burning or my lungs hurting. Still I want to try to build up to a 5k. Any suggestions on a workout schedule and how soon after quitting smoking I should start?before you run, eat a fruit\vegtable. Run around places your familiar with and that have a good clean environment\air.Today, there are so many options for smokers who want to quit. The nicotine patch and nicotine gum are widely available, as are so many other helpful quit smoking aids. Hypnotism to stop smoking is an excellent way to end your smoking habit because the success rates are possibly double that of the patch and gum. You can also use hypnosis together with other stop smoking programs like the patch to achieve even better results.
