Have you ever tried eating while your nose was stuffed up and you could barely breathe out of it? Its a similar feeling to having emphysema, the not being able to breathe very well. Except for people with emphysema its not just their nose that they have trouble breathing through. Their lungs cannot fill with an adequate amount of air, (there isn't room in their lungs for that). It pretty hard to eat when you can barely breathe. If their condition is severe enough it can almost be like trying to hold your breath while eating. Try it once, you understand how they feel. :(

Yet another reason not to smoke.
