Title: My introduction that I messed up yesterday lol
Post by: anthonywaynejordan on August 11, 2015, 08:32:00 AM
Should've posted my intro here, instead of general discussion!


If you follow baseball, you know that Tony Gwynn died last year of oral cancer, brought on by the use of smokeless tobacco. About three months ago I had a dream that I was at his funeral, I look down in the casket, it was his body and my face. Two weeks later on July 5 I made decision but I was never dipping again. I'm in my sixth week right now, my lip feels great, and I feel great.

The hardest thing for me now is occasionally something comes up where" supposed to be dipping". I've gotten over the big ones like driving, after meals, and at work. Yesterday, I was smoking some ribs for the first time in a few months, and hit me that I'm supposed to be dipping. It was a long day, LOL, but I didn't dip!

Welcome to the FUN bags Anthony. I don't know how you were able to do it for so long on your own, but that's an awesome accomplishment. You don't have to white-knuckle it any more though, we'll help in any way we can.

Nice job posting roll this morning. That's your promise to the rest of us that you will not use nicotine in any form today. All you have to do is keep that promise and return tomorrow.

Proud to quit with you today!

King

Be quit as long as the main reason is for yourself, then all of the other reasons will fall in line. I stopped dipping at least 5 times for my kids, and probably as many for my wife, but it wasn't until I was sick of it that it stuck. Quit Like Fuck today!
