Title: Day 7
Post by: IntheBox on February 04, 2009, 08:22:00 AM
Hi all, I found this site a few days ago, had seen it advertised a few times over the past few months, but due to the nature of the internet out here, haven't been able to post until now. As I write this I am 7 days completely tobacco and nicotine free. I started dipping about 8 years ago during National Guard drill weekends. I brought the habit with me to active duty, where it was much more accepted. I've tried to quit 3 or 4 times in the past, but around day 3 or so I would always give in. I decided to use my return to Iraq to quit, and its working pretty well. This time I used nicotine gum for about 3 weeks, dropping from a 4 mg dose to a 2 mg dose. Now it's been 7 days since I have used the gum or any other tobacco or nicotine product, and I'm feeling good (although I probably should have invested in wrigley stock with as much normal gum as I'm chewing.

Nice work! Truth be told, no one else on the planet chews gum. The few thousand people that are quitting at any given moment are the reason Wrigleys is in business.
