There's no question that being the president is a stressful job, former President Barack Obama just had an unhealthy way of dealing with it.In his forthcoming memoir, obtained Thursday by CNN, Obama reveals he didn't actually stop smoking when he entered the White House. In fact, the stress of the job led him to sometimes smoke eight or nine cigarettes a day, and he often sought out a "discreet location to grab an evening smoke," Obama writes.While Obama did say in 2009 that he'd mostly quit smoking early in his presidency, he admitted he sometimes broke down and smoked occasionally. Obama later said first lady Michelle Obama had led him to quit, but Michelle said it was mostly because of his daughters. In his memoir, Obama reveals the latter is true. When his daughter Malia "frowned" after "smelling a cigarette on my breath," Obama began "ceaselessly" chewing nicotine gum to break the habit for good.More stories from theweek.com Trump is reportedly 'very aware' he lost the election but is putting up a fight as 'theater' 7 scathingly funny cartoons about Trump's refusal to concede Pope Francis congratulates Biden, discusses addressing climate change and welcoming immigrants in 1st call
