700 Days of Quit
« Reply #104 on: December 17, 2019, 08:53:35 PM »
As I sit here on the eve of my 700th day of being quit from nicotine, I am unsure of my future.  I have lived the last 699 days one day at a time, never really planning into the future.  Now that I know I no longer need nicotine to live my life, I need to actually make plans to live it.  That being said, I am finally taking bake my life.  I have two surgeries scheduled for early next year, the first is in January to get my foot fixed (I have a huge bone spur on the back of my heal under the Achilles tendon).  Later in February, I am having a Sleeve Gastrectomy performed to help me get my weight under control.  I have lost 30 pounds so far on my own but I need to loose another 150 to get where I need to be. 

Once these have been done and my healing is mostly under way, I can then concentrate on doing things I have missed out on for so long, mostly spending time, and actually engaging in activities, with my family.  Things that being overweight and tied to a dead plant have robbed me of for so long.

I have been very depressed for the last year because of my situation and now I can finally start to see the light at the end of tunnel. 

Now, let's talk about nicotine.  Nicotine is in the top 5 most addictive chemicals known to man.  It has a 67% addiction rate for those that have tried cigarettes or chew.  That means that 6 out of every 9 people that try products containing nicotine will be addicted to it.  That, my friends, is really shitty odds.  You'd have a better chance of surviving a game of Russian Roulette.

Now, let's talk about the mortality rate.  Tobacco KILLS up to half of it's users.  More than 8,000,000 million deaths can be attributed to just cigarette smoking (1.2 million of those people were none smokers that died from second hand smoke exposure).  <----That was always my way of justifying my dip use, I would say, "well, at least I'm not hurting anyone else with my dip".

So let's recap, 6 of 9 people who try tobacco, will become addicted to it, 3 of those 6 will mostly likely die from tobacco use.  If I knew these statistics 33 years ago when I stuck that first dip in, I would probably have declined it that time.  Unfortunately, that was not the case, and here we are, addicts all of us hoping we have skirted the big C.  Some of us will not make it out alive, but we can sure live free from our addiction until that day comes.

So what is my point today?  I don't know.  I just had some thoughts rolling around and they needed to find there way here.  Who knows, something in this diatribe might help someone.

Anyway, tomorrow is day 700 for me.  I am truly thankful to all those who have supported me and continue to do so.  I only hope I have been able to support all of you the same.

Thank you.  God bless all of you.  I love you all as brothers and sisters.

Chris

Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
A tale of a fateful trip
That started in this nation’s capital
Where Hillary likes to shit.

She got the word that made her cringe,
Epstein was going to jail.
And so she knew she had to try
before he posted bail, before he posted bail.

The scene was set and Epstein sat,
Inside his lonely cell,
If the courage of the guards was held up high
Epstein wouldn’t die, Epstein wouldn’t die.

Hillary got in somehow and hung poor Epstein high,
With Billy Boy
Obama too,
Some millionaires and their wives,
A movie star
Chelsea and her husband Marc,
Here on Hillary’s Lies.
AAAAAhhhhaaahaaaahaaahhhahhhhhaaahahhahhhaha!!!!

Captain's Log

Stardate 73259.2

I am 643 days into this Quitting thing.  What I have I gotten myself into?  All around me there are people yelling. "Wake Up... Piss...Post" or "One Damn Day at a Time".  Then there are others who keep messing up the ship's daily log.  I have the urge to stick something in my mouth but Mr. Spock's ears are full of wax and Dr. McCoy is huddled in the corner screaming, "I'm a doctor dammit, not a miracle worker".

I wish Nurse Chapple were here   '40'

The further we go into the unknown, the weirder it gets.  Sometimes I wish this mission were over but I know I must keep pushing on.  If I gave up, I wouldn't only be letting myself down, but all of my shipmates as well.  So, onward we will go.  Fighting our demons as they come. 

Starfleet Command has been busy neutralizing Tribbles, they seem to have been multiplying again, creating duplicates of themselves.  Sometimes they are easy to see, other times they change their shape and color, making it difficult to spot them.  We must be vigilante in ridding our ships of these pests as they do nothing but bring down the moral of the crew.

"Captain, Klingon bird of prey decloaking dead ahead"  Shields up...Red Alert...End recording

Behold dear Chris, among men you’re blessed
For long you tarry at freedoms breast.
No longer a slave, no longer in chains
N’er more to hide tobacco stains.
Away he comes, ere break of day
Because he’s quit and quit he’ll stay
Forget the past, no mind the morrow
One day at a time doth he plow his furrow
Though not alone toast’s freedoms fill
For April’s banner he hoists at will
Though craves assail me I shall not bend
For Chris2Alaska is my friend.
Love the 600! (sorry I’m late)

If you want my digits, just ask and they will be yours, but I expect yours in return.

Accountability is a statement of personal promise, both to yourself and to the people around you, to deliver specific defined results.
Brian Dive

Do not be complacent about your achievements and not to strive for continual improvement when you get to the top. As soon as you let success go to your head, you sink into following familiar patterns and play it safe. In other words, you risk losing your edge.
Roy T. Bennett

You need anything, ask.  You feel strong, help.  This quit is for you but we got your back.

Do not let the actions of others determine the direction of YOUR quit.

Be humble... grow everyday.

I fear I will always be chasing the vortex like a drug. None will be as special as my first hit.
