Hi everyone. I am here today introducing myself to all of you to start my quiting of tobacco. I technically stopped dipping yesterday ( and I have a few times in the past) but I have never stuck to it. I end up going back once something does not go my way in life or I am upset with how things are going. I have just realized how juvenile that is and how I run to tobacco for every little thing. It's time to grow up and take control.
Day 2 of no tobacco its not easy and I feel like a zombie
Thanks

correction. You "stopped" in the past. You "quit" yesterday.
Welcome.

Welcome Starr-
Great decision to quit, one you won't regret!
Jump right in. Post roll as Scowick has instructed. Read everything in the welcome center folder. Get to know your quit brothers, exchange numbers and learn to use them to aid your quit. We are all nicotine addicts, we understand where you are coming from.
The KTC way really works, you can be a true quitter. But you have to want it, build it and maintain it. We don't just try, we are quit. We are quit today.

Welcome fellow quitter!!! (I never in my life would've thought those words could possibly mean something positive!!!)
I'm here to offer as much support as I can... being 3 weeks into my own quit, I'm not sure how much help I'll be but I'll try.

The support that you can offer is quitting together....holding each other accountable...and posting your promises to each other EVERY DAY!

Read everything here. Stay close to the website. I found it impossible to think about caving while I was reading or chatting here, and I still do. Knowledge is power and there is all the knowledge about quitting nicotine that you will ever need here. PM me if you need anything.

I haven't been keeping up on my intro page like I probably should but I was not sure where else to put this.
Day 67 is how far I have made it so far and I am feeling great. I for the most part felt like I had shit under control with my addiction. Then last night I remembered why it is an addiction and not a habit. I ran into the nic bitch and it came at me in a form I am sure everyone here is familiar with.
I was hanging out with some old friends that I had not seen in months and they all dip. We were having a few beers and out came the cans. I told them I quit and that I was on 66 days quit and they were all supportive. They told a few stories about how they need to quit and it was basically "addict" talk. "Well I would quit if I wasn't working so hard" and "Oh that's good for you but I can control my habit" Then the cans came out and they packed a lip of shit.
Last night was a real tough test for me and I am happy to tell the nic bitch to fuck off with all of my quit brothers and sisters! 'Finger'

Starr, fellow Ironman here and we're just a day apart as we chalk up +1's in the win column. Thanks for sharing this story and reminding me what an addict looks like through the eyes of a badass quitter. I'm fortunate in that I don't have friends who dip (and therein lies my inner ninja, who hid his addiction), so I don't have the chance to see reflections of my former self. Your victory yesterday is one to celebrate and I'm damn happy to see you on day 67 rather than at day 1. Just typing that last lineÂ…look at the distance 67 versus 1. That's a huge F'in deal. Proud of you and proud to quit with you.
-
Thank you everyone for all the awesome support! I wasn't expecting all of these bad asses to post up behind me like you all have. I'm proud to have a great group like March Ironmen and to all the support we get each day. I am proud to put another day of quit in the books with all of you!

100 days of freedom...congrats Starr

Way to go Starr! Keep it going strong!

Excellent. You sir are a bad ass! Keep up the awesome work!

This past week was a week to forget and to remember all at the same time! I was caught off guard by this, but last week I went back through "the fog". It made me remember the suck and I felt like I was at day 2 again. It was short lived as it lasted only an afternoon, but I will not forget how that made me feel. I had bad cravings and picked up a can of Smokey Mountain (something I haven't used since day 45 or so) and ate a ton of seeds. I had a plan and fell onto the KTC way of dealing with craving. Embrace the suck and get this quit rolling ODAAT. Day 118

I had a plan ...
...and that is how you do it ladies and gentlemen.
Anytime you need it, you have my digits...I'm there in a sec. Iron men through and true.

Perfect. Just perfect. Her trick plays are meaningless if you have a plan.

I am on day 135 and frustrated as all hell today. I want to write this for me first off and I hope this helps some new quitters as well. I just want to re-iterate the importance and significance of posting roll every day. Posting roll is our promise to our brothers and sisters that I will not use nicotine, in any form, today. We stick to our word that day. We post this early in the morning and we do this every damn day. It is as simple as that. There is no easier way to build trust within this community. We trade phone numbers and we text each other our promises for the day, if we cannot make a post for the day. Then that person posts for you with your quit group.
I think that scratches the surface of what posting roll every day does for a quitter. Yes you build trust, and quit tobacco, but for me this has been a much bigger process and I hope that it has been for many of you as well. I had to fight my own demons and look myself in the mirror everyday, as I posted roll. Roll taught me to examine my behavior for just ONE day and INTENTIONALLY change my behaviors. I see some comments being made "oh if I quit posting roll, then I won't be reminded of dip". Well what kind of addict bullshit talk is that! You are not ready to change, and you are not ready to have control in your own life! Make the decision to quit or not. You have the choice to live your life INTENTIONALLY or let life chose for you.
There are many things in life that we cannot control. Nicotine addiction is one thing, that NONE of us here can control. The one thing we can control though, is our behaviors. You are not here by accident. You are here because you are sick and tired, of being sick and tired. You have no control of your life because you have not examined your behaviors, and how they are affecting yourself and your life.
So when I post roll every morning, I examine my own life and decide that I am going to INTENTIONALLY live my life. I am going to change my behaviors and live without nicotine. My life is exponentially better since I have changed my behaviors.

Wisdom: noun \ˈwiz-dəm\
: knowledge that is gained by having many experiences in life
: the natural ability to understand things that most other people cannot understand
: knowledge of what is proper or reasonable : good sense or judgment
It takes many years for most of us to gain a small slice of this, my man Starr has achieved it in 135 days of quit and a mere 25 years of life.

The fight between me and nicotine rages on, and last night I got smacked by that bitch. I was not expecting that, after all I am going to be hitting 6 months of quit here in about a week.... This is a marathon and not a sprint of quitting. I had the most realistic dip dream to date. I have had a few and they felt so real, but in those I woke up and was 100% I did nothing with dip. Last night was different.
I had a dream that I bought a can of Copenhagen, and was chewing so intensely, with the fattest dip ever. This is normal for my dip dreams but then what happened next made me think this was close to reality. I had almost polished off the can and remembered KTC. Yes KTC entered my dreams. I had also dreamed I posted day 1.... oh I was devastated and ashamed of how I did not keep my word to every one of you here. I actually contemplated leaving the site all together. The feeling was so real and I was in such disgust that I was swearing off dipping again.
So I decided to keep the last pinch in a can and stick it under my bed, this is still a dream btw. That is the time when I woke up in an absolute panic. I was checking under my bed.... nothing... I checked my teeth.... nothing.... I checked KTC.... No day 1 for this quitting mother fucker!!!
I think that it is awesome that even when I am dreaming. I can't think about dipping without panicking and falling back on my brotherhood and accountability that has been established. I established a great web of accountability, and friends, with the tools on KTC. You get what you put into KTC. I have placed my faith in complete strangers and they have stepped up to help a fellow stranger. All I did was agree to pick them up when they are feeling down. I think all new quitters need to understand, that is all KTC is about. Brotherhood + Accountability = Success. I want to thank all of my supporters for being helpful and I hope that I am an intricate part of every one of your quits as well.

The fight between me and nicotine rages on, and last night I got smacked by that bitch. I was not expecting that, after all I am going to be hitting 6 months of quit here in about a week.... This is a marathon and not a sprint of quitting. I had the most realistic dip dream to date. I have had a few and they felt so real, but in those I woke up and was 100% I did nothing with dip. Last night was different.
I had a dream that I bought a can of Copenhagen, and was chewing so intensely, with the fattest dip ever. This is normal for my dip dreams but then what happened next made me think this was close to reality. I had almost polished off the can and remembered KTC. Yes KTC entered my dreams. I had also dreamed I posted day 1.... oh I was devastated and ashamed of how I did not keep my word to every one of you here. I actually contemplated leaving the site all together. The feeling was so real and I was in such disgust that I was swearing off dipping again.
So I decided to keep the last pinch in a can and stick it under my bed, this is still a dream btw. That is the time when I woke up in an absolute panic. I was checking under my bed.... nothing... I checked my teeth.... nothing.... I checked KTC.... No day 1 for this quitting mother fucker!!!
I think that it is awesome that even when I am dreaming. I can't think about dipping without panicking and falling back on my brotherhood and accountability that has been established. I established a great web of accountability, and friends, with the tools on KTC. You get what you put into KTC. I have placed my faith in complete strangers and they have stepped up to help a fellow stranger. All I did was agree to pick them up when they are feeling down. I think all new quitters need to understand, that is all KTC is about. Brotherhood + Accountability = Success. I want to thank all of my supporters for being helpful and I hope that I am an intricate part of every one of your quits as well.

Glad I read this - I'm on day 16 and I haven't had any dip dreams yet which has really surprised me. I was a tin of Kodiak/day guy for 20+ years. Not that I am getting complacent by any means but I think I had somehow put in the back of my mind that "Oh well, I guess I don't have to worry about the dip dreams". This is a good reminder that the nic bitch was probably stashing that card to play at a vulnerable time.
Not gonna happen bitch.
Proud to quit with you Starr

Thanks for all of the support. I want to share a story that happened to me on day 200.
I am on day 199 and dragging my ass to work to finish out the week. I am thinking to myself tomorrow is 200!!! I was excited because I am tasting freedom! These milestones have been a nice way to reflect back and remember that suck and how far I have actually come.... Then I am launched back to reality... I am an addict and there is no way around that.
I get a text message from my old high school friend and college roommate for 2 years. He has now been in the Army for the past 5 years and I see and hear from him very rarely. He is in the Airborne Infantry and is in the "shit" most the time. 3 tours to Afghanistan and he has been stationed in Kuwait for the past year. He is a purple heart recipient and an all around bad ass. I digress from my point, that the looking forward bit me in the ass big time!
He told me he was back in the states and he was going to be heading towards our hometown that afternoon. I thought wow... I need to get my ass back and see him. I get to see him on day 200 of my quit. We start swapping old stories, have a few beers and get to some grilling. Good times, but not a story or beer went by without him either smoking another cigarette or putting in a big dip. I realized that I started to think about the dip after a little while. It entered my mind... One won't hurt.... damn nic bitch and her tricks.
She is sneaky and this is why we have to quit ODAAT and look forward to a +1. I was looking forward to the 200 milestone and the nic bitch was too. I had an easy time refusing any nicotine that night but it wasn't the fact that I had hit 200 days, it was the fact that I had built something worth protecting (My Quit).
Looking back this past 200 days, I had a lot more good days than bad days, but all it takes is one dip, or nasty thought to screw up a damn good thing I have here with my brothers and sisters. So I got to celebrate 200 days of quit (without nic) and am going to be signing up for 3-6-5 with the March 14' Iron Men. Not because I am looking forward, but because I need to keep all parts of my equation strong. That equation is Brotherhood (which is strong in my circle and KTC) + Accountability (post roll daily and keeping my promises not to use nic today) = Success (which is what I feel when I get to tell that nic bitch to go FUCK OFF!) Great day to be quit

Just wanted to bump this little excerpt from yet another entry from the quit gospel according to Starr. Newbies and vets alike, this is a quitter worth following, one that I feel privileged to be a part of his equation..

So I got to celebrate 200 days of quit (without nic) and am going to be signing up for 3-6-5 with the March 14' Iron Men. Not because I am looking forward, but because I need to keep all parts of my equation strong. That equation is Brotherhood (which is strong in my circle and KTC) + Accountability (post roll daily and keeping my promises not to use nic today) = Success (which is what I feel when I get to tell that nic bitch to go FUCK OFF!) Great day to be quit

This man is as badass a quitter as they come; and he's an even better person. Congrats Starr, I couldn't be more proud of you and honored to be quitting with you every day.

Thanks all for the support for the 1 year of quit. I am actually typing this today due to a realization I had on a road trip yesterday.
This past weekend my younger brother got married, and I traveled to go be the best man. Really an honor to stand for your brother, and I am proud of him. But I was on my way back yesterday and I had a long time friend/ college roommate with me after the airport. I was going to be driving through his hometown on my way back to my hometown so we thought we could drive together on our way back.
Well he decides right away that he needs a smoke... Well I told him that I would rather he did not do that in my car (Smoking was not ever one of my vises but I just don't like it) So he says well I can just dip some Copenhagen instead.... (MY old brand) so we stop off and he gets some and I am all to familiar with the smell... It didn't smell the same to me this time. I was a little confused.
Then I came to the realization, I have definitely changed in the past year.
I didn't get envious of him as he threw in way too large of a dip. I was feeling bad for him as he put in that dip, because I immediately visualized stained teeth, a mouth full of cancer, and him being completely powerless to nic. This was my imagination playing tricks in my mind, and it was so negative that I am proud of how my brain works now. I used to sensationalize when smelling this oh so familiar smell. Not this time, after fighting to stay quit ODAAT EDD for the past year my mind has been made up. This is a lifelong quit that I have built. This is a quit that I have decided to make with all of you, and I will continue my ODAAT ways and it will be EDD. Not because I am attempting a quit, but because I am freaking killing it. I am so proud of myself, and damn straight I am arrogant about it.
The best decision I have ever made is signing up for KTC. If you are reading this and not yet quit, I urg you to sign up and get involved in this website. It will change your life and make you a better person without nicotine. Gain control of your life.

I hit 2 weeks today. I can't imagine a year but you freaking did it! That's just fantastic. Thanks for setting the example and showing that it can be done. Congratulations.

Keep it up, this is awesome. You should be proud for being so strong while your buddies were packing lippers right in front of you. Inspiring.

You just had a face to face encounter with nicotine, looked her strait in the eye and gave her a big FU. She'll never be better than you again. Never. And because this guy is a badass quitter, he'll make sure of it.

Thanks guys for the kind words! I am here because it means a lot to be a part of this community. We aren't just here for ourselves but also we are here for each other. I hope that the young quitters understand that and take care of not just themselves but stick around and keep others improve themselves as well. This quit is never ending and leaving will do nothing but become a negative to both you and the rest of the quitters.
Quit on
