No amount of self-discipline is going to cure a smoker's lungs or cure someone's diabetes. Your best hope is for things to slowly get better over decades.
And while, yes, I'm sure people understand that smoking and overeating are bad for you, it's tough to know where the line is between "indulgence" and "excess."
I also think it's wildly inaccurate to compare a lifetime of addiction to something that is a choice requiring an hour of your time.
