Like any addiction, the only way she has a chance at stopping is if she wants to stop. She clearly doesn't. I know it's not encouraging but like any addiction it comes down to priorities. Is your happiness and her health more important, or is feeling good by smoking more important? Your gut is telling you the answer. Until that changes there's nothing you can do that will have any lasting, meaningful effect. Perhaps a "lite" intervention would be good, you and her close family and anyone else you think has been affected by the smoking, or will be affected by her suffering health defects.

Don't do what I did. My girlfriend suggested I start and we'd quit together which, she explained, would make it easier for her. It took her time to convince me but, before our summer break from school, I took her dare and, long story short, we BOTH couldn't stop. Now I smoke more than she does sometimes and this has been going on for the last 2 years!
There is no way to talk her out of it, cigarettes are addictive and all in all, it is her choice to do what she wants. The most you can do is let her know that you want what is best for her and your feelings. God luck
