i believe white smoke means your rings. i could be wrong. i always get confused. either its your rings that are worn or your valve seals. someone correct me if im wrong.

White smoke = coolant
Blue smoke = oil
Black = fuel
It sounds like a blown Headgasket.
You losing coolant too? does it overheat at all?

I dont think so.. he said its not loosing coolant and not overheating.
The key was loosing oil.. some people mistake blue / gray for white smoke
take out your spark plugs and check them to see if your rings are shot
