359 lbs: indicates the need for you to be supervised by your doctor for weight management. It is dangerous to do this w/out a doctor's support. By all means stop smoking. This will lower your risk of medical conditions and give you a feeling of empowerment, which will help w/the weight management. Peace and good health.
