Smoking to keep off the weight?

Nathan B asked:


I’m fifteen, and I smoke. I started smoking to lose weight and now I’m smoking to keep off the weight. I’m not addicted (at least I don’t think, I’ve quit before but the weight came back). Is there any way (besides diet and exercise, which by the way never work for me.) that i can keep off the weight other than smoking? And besides the obvious addiction and cancer risks, is there something wrong with smoking to keep off the weight? Any help appreciated.

timber’s mom asked:

I know that animals get fatty lumps as they get older. The vet says not to worry about them. But how do you know if it is just a fatty lump or it is a tumor?
I do find new lumps and take my dog to the vet. He just feels them and says they are fatty lumps and not tumors. Was wondering how can you tell just by feeling it?

What are some good organizations that put money toward cancer research? My mom has/had 3 kinds of cancer.
I am too young to get a paying job, but I volunteer a lot.
