Maybe she eats healthy because she likes it and smokes because she likes it and doesn't carer about her health.
 
my 2 cents-
I hate inconsiderate smokers, being a smoker, it give us a bad name, and others a bad smell! 😛 I'm a 'Considerate, and Anal' Smoker (ask anyone who knows me). Wintertime I hang my head out the window, or just go outside. Summertime, or when it's warm, the windows are open 24/7 and I keep a HUGE Ehxaust fan in the window, and smoke right out it. I keep my Ashtrays outside on the window sill. I NEVER light up in a restaurant, even if it is smoking. I think it's just RUDE to the non-smokers next to you. How would u like to smell their A$$ halfway through your Steak?? For people who must smoke in a restaurant, they should have seperate smoking rooms, but is it really necessary?? C'mon I smoke 2 packs a day, and I can hold out for an hour to sit through dinner.
Even worse smelling than Tobacco?? POT!! I lived w/a chronic Pot Smoker, and he would smoke, NON-STOP, w/the windows closed. Drove me NUTS!! I still have the nasty, rank, skunky aeroma in a lot of my Computer Parts, and some clothes. (I move 6 months ago). U can wash, and wash, but that smell is stubborn.

<< I started smoking Before it was deemed bad for your health so I take exception to this comment >>
AMEN to that! 😛

<< in my continuing effort to insure that equilibrium is maintained in the universe I will tell you that I smoke, and eat only crappy, high fat, high sugar content food. Feel better now?
Russ, NCNE >>

I 2nd that! 😛
<SEVERE SARCASM, w/ my opinions->
<< having a brain and smoking is ironic >>
I feel the same about people who drink, but it's none of my business. Don't argue with me, How many people get drunk on a pack of Marlboros and wreck their car, and kill someone?

<<Did you stop, or are you still a pawn of the tobacco companies? If you quit, then I can accept your statement. If you continued smoking after you knew it is harmful then I agree with X951. >>
What bout people who drink beer?? or Caffiene, are they Pawns too?? Trust me I'm not sticking up for the tobacco companies, I can take a Smoker easier than I can take someone who's had a few drinks.
</SEVERE SARCASM>

BTW, Did u detect my arcasm??

But at least alcohol and caffeine have been proven beneficial to one's health in small amounts. Can't say the same for cigs. 😀
I drink on occasion and I'm a coffee fiend. How's that make me a pawn? I don't see the coffee industry posting billboards near schools trying to get kids to start early. 😉

*edit* Oh yeah, and I did get your "arcasm", whatever that is. 😛
 
To answer the original question posted....I don't see anything unusual about it. If you smoke does that mean you can't eat healthy? If you don't eat healthy does that then mean you should take up smoking? If you don't exercise enough does that mean you should also move near radiactive fallout and start eating toxic waste?

There are a gizillion things you should do to take care of your health, nobody is doing them ALL. A lot of people will pick SOME of them to do though.
