1st thing stop smoke: The first thing is to stop smoking. This is your biggest risk for death, stroke, or cancer. Second hand smoke can cause cancer and health risks for your 3 children. So it'll be hard but see your doctor for a smoking cessation program. You'll be very glad when you stop smoking and try to remove yourself from other smokers. Your doctor can help with weight problem as well.
