when i attempted to quit smoking i actually lost weight. starting up a smoking habit is stupid. ive seen plenty of fat *** people that smoke.

if you want to lose weight without trying, just get some natural supplements that supposedly suppress the appetite. drink lots of water. dont eat as much?

Deal. I'll head down to the needle exchange, you call Courtney and see if she wants in.

cjohnson2492, if you want a raspy voice or whatever, can't you just be patient until the puberty hits?

Totally doesn't help you lose weight. It makes a good alternative to snacking, but you're more likely to maintain your weight (as opposed to gain some) than to lose any if you start.

And I've been smoking for about 5 years and haven't developed much of a rasp in my speaking or singing voice. I'm just clogged in my throat most of the time, and can't speak or sing much unless I clear my throat. And it's not giving a good rasp when my throat is clogged, it's purely stopping me from actually making any kind of tuneful sound. So no, that's not a good reason to take up smoking, tbh.

Can't you pretend and tell him he WILL sound like his favourite male artist Courtney Love?
