elmuyloco, you said this:

But I think what is important to remember is that we don't know what health issues she has and saying that she needs to put one potential killer aside may end up being a death sentence for her.

You're right--there's no way of knowing because we
don't know Altari's medical condition or health issues. But all things being equal, we can still have opinions about which is more dangerous. Your opinion is as valid as anyone else's.
Altari--you should ask your doctor about this. He or she will tell you which would be better.

Not dieting while she stops smoking is a sure way for her to gain at the minimum 10 more lbs.

How do you know that? Well... I don't think you do! Because you don't know Altari's medical condition or health issues! So, you're using statistics, too.
I'm curious--are you a former smoker, elmuy? The reason I ask is that not everyone can quit by cutting down on one cigarette a day. Is this how you did it?
I quit cold turkey--both times.
Some people do better with the patch. Again, Altari, it would be good to ask your doctor about this.
