Hey Everyone,
My name is CJ. I grew up in CT and now live in Manhattan. I'm 29 years old. As I am posting this intro (Thanks to Wedge) I am on day 4 of Quit. I was a baseball player, played since birth through college. We were on a travel team trip when I was 15 to Arizona. The guys on my team stole some Kodiak and some beers and 14 years later I'm about a 3-4 can a week dipper.
Anyways, the reason I quit is because I want to live and be healthy. About 2 weeks ago my 94 year old grandfather passed away. This dude was my idol. Walked 3 miles everyday up til the day he died. Believe it or not it was a shock that he died (EVEN AT 94) because he was in such good shape. As I saw him on his hospital bed, I remeber sayin to myself man I have good genes I hope I live that long. Then in the back of my head, I had that monkey on my back that I am secretly putting poison in my mouth every day. So fuck it. I want to be like my grandfather and take life by the balls. So that's why I am here, that's why I'm quit and that's why I'm staying quit.
Best,
C

CJ you rock your story is right at home here.. I've also got those genes of longevity but I'm afraid I've waited to long well see. Life as a ex-dipper addict is really a great feeling. I never knew life could be so good. Pm me any time,

Great story man. Right there with you , played ball from tball up through junior college. I always thought once you were about 14 that snuff was part of the game. Glad I found this site and glad you did too. PM me if you need anything man.

CJ,
Welcome to KTC! Great intro...short, sweet, right on the money. So sorry about your grandfather. Helluva guy, obviously.
Listen, just stay quit with us, everyday. One day at a time, You can and will do it.
Now, I need you to get down to HH bagels and buy me a dozen and FedEx them off to me. Then for lunch, go have a few slices of pizza (any pizza will do...Texas pizza leaves a lot to be desired. Then for dinner, head over to the Palm or maybe even to Peter Luger's. Aah. the Big Apple! I miss it aso much sometimes.
Stay quit.
