Hey everyone - my name is Don. For you future June HOF'ers, I'm the one who is totally illiterate when I'm posting roll. I think I already wrote an introduction but was emailed that it went into somebody else's personal intro. I assure you I am no dummy with computers...maybe its the fog or the out-of-body experience I had on days 2 and 3. Either way, I'm catching-on how to navigate through this site. So forgive me if you see one of my posts on your personal space. I mean nothing by it!
Where do I begin...I have been chewing for nearly 40 years, quitting only a few times. Like many (if not all) of you, I really LIKED chewing. But it took me a long time to realize that I don't like being controlled by my can...always making sure I had enough; trying to hide it; panicking when I had no place to carry it. Well I'm done with that - on my terms. Nobody told me to quit - I'm just sick of it and the person I became. I'm currently on day 6 and it is starting to become a little better. I like how things are done here...I can't promise for tomorrow but I will promise for today. I'm going to really give this everything I have.

Welcome aboard Don. You posted perfectly. One day at a time you are going to find a freedom that you forgot existed. The beginning sucks, if it didn't everyone would quit. Only winners quit - and you are part of a great family at Ktc.
Dude I fucked up roll for a month at the beginning. Someone will fix it and you'll figure it out. Just make sure your name is on there yu are a man of your word don, so be sure to give it daily. You can do this. If done weak dude like me can, I know you can.
If I can help let me know.

Ata boy Don.
You are figuring it out.
Congrats on day 6 and figuring out roll...
More than most can do during the Fog. It will lift.. Your brain hasn't had it this good in a while.. It's just a little excited. Glad you are too.
I quit with you EDD ODAAT.

I can't promise for tomorrow but I will promise for today.
Don, that quote above from your post is one of the most important centerpieces of quitting. Very few truly get that from the get go and I just wanted to point it out and reinforce it for you. I don't think you could have said it any better.
Post roll every day, that is your promise and do it one day at a time (ODAAT). We'll all do the same with you.

Pab speaks the truth. Stay quit ODAAT and come back to us in a few weeks with that "I like to dip" thought. I would like to see what you think because it is simply the nic bitch trick fucking you into thinking you like it when your body really hates it. Stay quit bro, we here at KTC are on your team. When you succeed at kicking a craving, we all succeed together. Never lay down your cash again to pay for the death and destruction that this shit deals us. We are better and stronger than that. Remember, some CEO somewhere is counting on your weakness for his wealth. Take that poisonous weed and shove it up his fat ass. We don't need his addictive weed, we don't want to pay for his lavish lifestyle, we don't need to waste our hard earned money and our health just so we can get a fix and he can get a new car. Screw him, lets make him eat that can of shit by not purchasing it. Let's keep that 5 bucks in our pocket and buy our grandkids or kids some ice cream. I know it's hard, I know the cravings but when you dig in and make the decision you are never doing that shit again, and then you get on here and get the support we all need, you can win. YOU CAN WIN. I'm on your team. Let's kick some ass.

It has now been 15 days since my last chew and it does feel incredible. I feel more in control of my life without the can. Mogul, Pabs, Rawls, and everyone else who posted were rightÂ…give this a few weeks and things are different. It wasn't an easy two weeks but I'm glad that is behind me. I look forward with quitting with you all each day. You are all an inspiration to me. Never thought I'd have made it 1/2 of a month!

Hi I've been looking around intros lately and yours stands out (not that others don't) 40 years you've been wasting your money and risking your life. 15 days without it. That's huge you're on the right path, you're on the glory road and you won't regret it. Stay quit, pm me soon. Best of luck

Don let's do this! You are gonna be in same boat as alot of us older guy's trying to figure out what's suppose to be normal. Just wait till your mind starts clearing up and you can actually remember what you went to refrigerator to get out. Lol! Really it is amazing! I lost so much, well might as well say my whole life to this nasty ass habit, so I plan on using every extra second dip free doing things I love not chasing down my next fix! This shit is the hardest thing I've ever done but it is by far the best thing I've ever done in my life! Life without dip damn that sounds great! Damn proud to be quit with you today my friend! ODAAT! EDD! Pm me if you need number

You guys keep me going. I just cleaned my car for the first time since the beginning of winter. Man I could have made two full cans of snuff from what was on my floor and under my seat. For years I have cleaned my car and never thought much about that mess - until tonight. I was actually grossed out from that mess! It's good to be in a car that is clean of that stuff...what were we thinking??!!

Day 17 and still going! Got the weekend coming up - they are always tough because i have more time on my hands. But I will use some down time and read some of these awesome stories on the site. I appreciate all the people that are pulling for me and others. It's kind of strange but in a way my entire personality has changed - and not always for the good. I have noticed myself having a short fuse at times with others around me. Some things just irritate me. I am spending the next week or two working on thinking before I open my mouth. Have a great weekend everybody and let's all stay quit!!

Congrats Don!
My name is Randall. I am on day one of my quit. This is the third time I am attempting to quit, but the first time I am leaning on KTC for help. I am optimistic about this quit. It is not easy, but when the fog lifts, I will be a better man!

Ok - Day 18 of my quit and having some serious cravings today. I won't cave but it almost feels like I'm in the fog all over again. And all I want to do is eat! I'm not obese - yet - but I will be if this keeps up. Anybody else experience these strong cravings around the same time of your quit?

Day 23 and the days seem to get better and I'm not really fixated on chewing. Nights get a little tough (especially during the hoop games) but that's what my SM is for. And not nearly as bad as the first couple of weeks. Reading on this site has really helped. Posting roll helps as well. Congrats to all of June for quitting. (Did we find a better name than "goons"?) Thanks to Kasherms for the daily support and Randall for reaching out to me. Those texts every now and then helps to realize that we are all in this together. I'm looking forward to day 24...quit on.

Congrats on 23 days Don..

Day 28 of my quit and it really has been a roller-coaster ride. I have strung three or four days together where I have no cravings, then BAM - the craving is there for an entire evening. It usually occurs only in the evenings now but I have gotten through these with fake chew. I'm finally starting to get some sleep - my sleep pattern was a mess for almost three weeks. I know I don't want any chew but do think about it quite a bit. Cant believe it has been four weeks - especially from someone who hasn't been successful in quitting before. I'm taking it one day at a time. Thanks everybody for the great support.

Day 30 of my quit and thought I would treat myself to something worthwhile. Now I have always liked to eat, but in the past 30 days of my quit I LOVE to eat. The result - a 12 pound weight gain. The control of quitting chewing has been awesome - not so good for controlling the eating. So, back to my treat - I bought a treadmill and put my fat ass on it for 30 min. tonight. With the money I have saved and will continue to save from buying chew, the treadmill should pay for itself by day 80 or so. My goal is to lose this excess "baby" fat or else I'll moonlight next December playing Santa in my local department store. Thanks to everyone for the encouragement, especially Kasherms who is always supporting me. I quit with all of you.

Day 28 of my quit and it really has been a roller-coaster ride. I have strung three or four days together where I have no cravings, then BAM - the craving is there for an entire evening. It usually occurs only in the evenings now but I have gotten through these with fake chew. I'm finally starting to get some sleep - my sleep pattern was a mess for almost three weeks. I know I don't want any chew but do think about it quite a bit. Cant believe it has been four weeks - especially from someone who hasn't been successful in quitting before. I'm taking it one day at a time. Thanks everybody for the great support.

Day 38 - It's not 100 - yet - but I consider this day a milestone. I chewed for about 38 years and am just finishing day 38 of my quit. I no longer think of chewing 24/7 and have realized that life is good without the ball and chain. For all of you new quitters - you can do this! Take your life back and enjoy! I still have the SM for those times I feel the urge. But I've noticed they are becoming less and less. I'm not as active on the site as many but I do credit this forum and all of you for making it through the last 38 days. After making it this far my next goal is simple - day 39. One day at a time...

Day 49 - I really am still going strong after 49 days! I had many challenges during this time but the biggest will be this weekend when I head to my camp for trout fishing. That is probably where I chewed the most. I'm going to take fake chew and a lot of gum. If I make it through this weekend I think I'll be able to do anything. I'm not planning on giving in. Congrats to all of June who have or is about to hit the half century mark. This site has saved me many times and will continue to inspire me. Happy first day of trout PA - believe it or not it will be the first nic-free trout season in close to 40 years for me!!
