5 years ago this morning I had my last dip. I was terrified. For 25 years nicotine had been my go to for celebrations. For sorrows. It had gotten me through arguments and celebrations.

It also had turned me into a liar. A sneaky deceitful guy that made excuses and lied to have an affair with a chopped up plant in a can. I was angry. Fat. Felt bad. On my way to an early heart attack. And I was very unhappy.

5 years ago I had no idea what I was doing. I honestly thought it would be like the other 2,000 times I’d “quit”, and it would have been if I hadn’t found this place. Every day without exception I post roll and I keep my word. Was it hard? Oh fuck yes. Is it hard? Lol... absolutely NOT. For a long time it was. Then things started to click. And quitting has made me a better husband and person.

If I can do this, you can do this. ItÂ’s Christmas Eve. Give yourself and your family the best gift ever. Get your name on roll.

Thanks to KTC for letting this guy finally win at his biggest failing!

God Bless you all.
Congrats to you Michael! Your quitting exemplifies what KTC is all about. Because for everything it has given to you, you have reached out and shared with a multitude of quitters. I am one of those guys. There is so much to celebrate on Christmas Eve - very much for you this year. Thank you!
Congrats on 5 years Michael. Your a true Bad Ass Quitter!
Congrats on your 5 years quit Michael.
Thank you for the giving if your time, self and heart here always.
So many have benefited from your giving nature.
Blessings to you and yours.
And thank you for all the support to myself and so many other quitters ❤
Congrats on 5 years quit!!! Thank you for your leadership here!
