Why Quit Smoking?

So.... you smoke. Want some reasons to quit? Know someone else who smokes and want to convince them to quit? Well here's a list of good reasons why you should quit smoking now!

You will save money - just think of all the cool things you could buy if you weren't sending your money up in smoke
Your clothes, hair, house, car, and breath will smell better
Thinking of having kids? Pregnant women who quit smoking are less likely to have miscarriages, stillborns, or premature babies
You won't feel like a second class citizen
You won't be exposing others to dangerous second hand smoke
You'll live longer!
The negative health effects of smoking - illness, disease, and death - are very painful - not only for you, but for your loved ones. Think of your future! And think of theirs, too.
Your health will improve when you quit:
- You'll have fewer colds
- You'll breathe easier
- Your chance of heart attack in the future will decrease
- Your smoker's cough will disappear
- You'll have more energy
- Your sense of smell and taste will improve
Your lungs can repair themselves. You still have time!!
You'll feel proud of yourself after you quit
Gain self respect
A lot of nonsmokers don't want to be around smokers - this may include people you care about - bring those people back into your life!
Set a good example for younger kids (like friends and relatives) who look up to you
You'll be much more kissable with out stinky smokey breath (they say kissing a smoker is like licking an ashtray!)
You can keep your youthful look - smokers get more wrinkles as they age
You can enjoy life and be truly independent
If you're not addicted yet, quit now before you become addicted and depend on cigarettes to make you feel better
Quit before you become so addicted that you'll keep smoking even if you have to smoke through a hole in your throat!
The longer you smoke, the harder it is to quit, so why not quit as soon as possible?
You don't have to freeze in the winter or burn up in the summer when you have to go outside to smoke
You won't smudge your lipstick while smoking
You won't have to look for a smoking area everywhere you go
