I am there. In good health, I mean. For the one year when I paused with smoking, I didn't notice anything this way or other (better or worse) except kilograms piling up. A few times I hit the 90kg mark (approaching it from below) and it took me two years to get into my normal lower eighties.

As a firm unbeliever, I also don't believe in smoking. Just as I didn't believe the big tobacco's advertising the health benefits of smoking, I likewise don't believe the propaganda against it. It's too dirty to be true. And, while I'm at it, here's the question I asked from Cecil's site (http://www.straightdope.com/):

The connection between lung cancer and smoking. We've had decades of propaganda, first by makers who claimed smoking is good for your health (and had some science to back the claim) and then by the anti-smoking institutions who claimed your chances to win a lung cancer are so much higher if you smoke (and had the equally suspect science to support the claim).

Now that pretty much everyone I know has stopped smoking years ago (sometimes asking for a light gets you left in the dark for long minutes), I guess the statistics should show a gradual decline of the lung cancer. I failed to find any. How could the anti-smoking lobby fail to score on such a strong PR point? Do they know something I don't? I count on your mighty research skills on this, for I have failed.

That was in august 2014, and guess what, they're still working on it.
