Hello,
I found KTC while looking for chew alternatives. I had my last chew on November 1st. I've chewed off and on (mostly on) for the last 30 years. Over the years I've chewed a bit of everything. I quit for 7 years and restarted in '03. Since then I've been clean for a year at a time at least twice, but came back. Before I quit, I was chewing a can to a can and a half of Skoal long cut a week. I haven't had any health issues. I am pretty discrete, so it has not really caused a problem at home, at work, etc. I just decided that I am not getting any younger and I don't need to do it. Who knows what the future will bring, but I figure that every year spent not chewing is a good thing. After a few weeks, I am not missing it every minute, but at least every hour. I purchased all the Teeza flavors and Nipthegrip. As you guys know, kind of like kissing your sister. I do like the Fire Teeza and Forever Mints are pretty good. As I am no longer around anyone who chews, I think I am less likely to backslide this time. Thanks for the information here.

Glad to be Quit with you Today!!
You just need a support group to keep you quit for good because you have proven multiple times you can make it through the first days/months.
If you need somebody to chat at, or quit with, send me a message would be happy to help.

Welcome to the KTC quit train lingenfr. We are over 17,000 members strong and will support you all the way. What we do is provide you with the tools to quit and help you along that rough patch of track. We will be there for you every step of the way to freedom. We will be there when you are hurting, when you are in the suck, when you feel like raging, venting or just talking to someone on the phone. Around here, we call that Brotherhood.
Joining us means you will do a few things. First and foremost, you will post Roll. Roll is your daily promise to yourself and all of your new brothers and sisters that you will not use tobacco in any form that day. You will post your name and the number of days you are quit each day in the February 2014 quit group. Each and every day you will post your promise. No exceptions. That is the price of admission to KTC. Nothing more and nothing less. The reason you are put in February is that will be the month that you will celebrate being 100 days free of nicotineÂ…your Hall of Fame date.
Now that you know the basics, it is time to read all you can on this site. Go to the welcome center and that will get you started. Post roll and look up at your inbox (1). That is a personal message from me with my telephone number. Lets get your quit started today. Congrats on taking control of your life. Wayne

wmcatty, thanks. I didn't join a quit group as I don't plan to commit to not using tobacco. I am going to quit chewing, but I plan to smoke a cigar from time to time. While I would rather be chewing, I'm not having a particularly difficult time of it as I've been here before. For that reason, I may not be the best person to help others. As I understand and respect the rules, I will cease posting. Thanks.

If You don't mind I would like to talk to your master. If you do that's tough. It's apparent your not in control of anything.
I hate you poison. I hate the fact that you were ever in my life. I hope my friend realizes the truth before it's to late. I hope he eventually realizes he loves you more than his family, friends and himself. I hope he realizes that you only do one thing well. You take, and take until there is nothing left. I hope he realizes that you will steal his money, time with family and dignity. I hope he realizes that you could eventually take his tongue, jaw, throat and eventually his life.
As you were slave.

While I understand the negativity, still glad to be 31 days in with no chew (or cigars). Still missing the chew, but way too stubborn to go back. Used up all of my fake chew and not going to buy anymore. For me, just kept me thinking about chewing. Did like the Teaza Fire though. Pretty psyched about Forever Mints. I'll stay quiet for another 30 days. Best wishes to all those on the straight and narrow.

While I appreciate your honesty, I feel obligated that what you saw as negativity was actually quitters petitioning to have you see the light. The KTC method of posting roll works and is proven to work. It is great that you got to day 31 that is no small task. We would like to see you stick around through it. Keep in mind that posting roll in a quit group takes less than 2 minutes of your busy day, but can add a lifetime of accountability daily. He'll you just might even meet a friend or two along the way.

I wish you nothing but the best also. I just hope you realize it will continue to get easier and easier to stay quit as long as you stay away from all forms of nicotine.
Why don't you post roll and take this quit to the next level. What's so great about a smelly, stinky good for nothing cigar filled with several different cancer causing agents anyway? Think about it.

64 days clean. Happy New Year. Thinking about chewing less and less.

watch the 70 funk and congrats on 64 days
and just an FYI Quitting chewing but continuing to use nicotine in a different form is an exercise in futility.
Ulysses S Grant liked a celebratory cigar too....... he died of throat cancer

Glad to see your hanging. Stay away from them cigars and you'll continue to add them + 1s. Life will keep getting better and better. Be proud, 100 + is an accomplishment.

I was thinking about a chew today (not backsliding) and it hit me that I was 13.5 months clean. Truth in lending, I had a few cigars on the golf course over the summer, but less than 10 (maybe less than 5). I was feeling like a little ninja celebration and to say go team to my fellow quitters whether it has been a day or a year. My posting seems to irk some, so I don't do it very often, but hopefully it encourages someone to quit or stick with the quit. There is much better advice here than I could offer. I didn't care for the chew substitutes, but I am still using Forever Mints. They give you the oral thing and make your breath smell good, what a concept. Hang in there quitters and to the supporters here, thanks for what you are doing. Happy Holidays. See you next year, or maybe in five.

Honestly we don't give a shit. Your updates are useless. This is a no nicotine site. Fuck off.

I only used Horse 3 times golfing this year, and meth once while sleeping under a bridge, but I did not use Crack once, so we are equal!

Yeah, because that is exactly the same thing. Regardless, I appreciate the assistance I got from this site. Best wishes and happy holidays. I'll wait until my five year anniversary to post again.

When you swing by ask for Mr. Blue. I'll be holding my breath.
You are not quit 13.5 months. Around here Day1 reset after that cigar. Stop fooling your self, you damn sure aren't fooling us.......

When you are serious about being quit and staying that way, pm me and I will let you know the secret. I'll help you, but not before I see you are serious.
to put it mildly, there are many, many misconceptions we need to talk about, but I'm not gonna waste my keystrokes if you are just here to create drama.
