Do you think the war against smoking has increased obesity? There are other reasons for Americans getting fatter, less manual labor, more processed food, more dining out, but I do believe it is a major factor. I know there are plenty of fat people who still smoke but I know my own father gained thirty pounds after giving up his three packs a day habit.
Did you know of anyone who smoked to keep weight off?
