Coming around about 11pm and posting that day and also posting the next day is cutting corners.

If you are willing to cut corners on posting daily, what's next?

Day 29. Almost a month. This is the longest I have been nice free since I started. Thats insane. Not easy either. I went through some real rough patches in this month. Lot of nic rage, and a lot of understanding from my wife and friends.

It makes me sad to think that I chose dip over my family for 10 years, now that I'm quit, I am blaming my wife for that too. I know its part of the process, and I have pulled out of my funk finally, but it kills me how much of an impact that stuff had and still has even though I am QLF.

I could not have even made it this far without KTC, and my quit brothers. Between posting roll EVERYDAY (STILL 100%) late night chat with some straight up quitting idiots, to texts from quit brothers just to motivate me daily. It kills me to see guys/gals (new and old) bucking the system cause they think they are so fucking smart, and dont need to follow the program.

I am dedicated to a new life, without nicotine. I cant thank all of you enough. Every call, text, message, post reply, and most of all my late night chat fucks gets me through every day, and keeps me quit.

I am gonna quit today. Again.
You best check yourself Lambo! The stats don't lie. Ouch, tell me about it, it kills me too!(I fixed those typos for you.)

Lambo, this was my first time reading your thread and I love this journal because it reminds me very much of my first 30 days and why I never want to live "a first 30 days" ever again. To me, it sounds like you're beginning to revel in your freedom, and you should. Be proud of it, brag about it, and wear it like a freaking medal. You keep doing what you're doing EDD; glad you're here.
29 days is some great Quittin. Well done lambo.

Try not to worry about the past 10 yrs. You are a new man. A free man that is not a slave to a can of dirt. Focus on making this day the best day of your life. That is how we roll here. ODAAT.

Proud to be quit with you today.

Lambo, me too. first time on your thread. And I agree completely with Steakbomb. Congratulate yourself and be very protective of your quit. It's yours and it belongs only to you. It is a relationship between your body and your brain. You have won, your attitude determined that when you made the decision to quit. Try and revel in the fact that you have won and go out and do one thing for yourself to make you a better person. Go for a run, a walk, lift some weights, help an elderly person across the street. Hell, I don't know, but do something positive for yourself and move beyond just beating the bitch. But, do it slowly and one thing at a time. Make no room for stress or other weaknesses where the bitch can come knocking. ODAAT brother. Mogul quits with ya.

Hey Lambo great job! Things are going to get better soon! You'll love it. Keep logging the tough times here, so you have this record of what you don't ever want to go through again.

Havent updated this thing in a while. Bored at work so figured i would. 12 days in. And I am more of a quitter than ever. I am still pulling out of the fog. Thought I was completely through it but was kind of fuzzy today. lost count on my own quit days LOL. But i feel better than I have in a long time. Have really been spending some time in chat, getting to know some guys, exchanging some numbers. Love it.

Met my first real challenge this past weekend too. Had my Motorcycle Club "church" and drank beer for the first time since day 1. I killed it with no problem. i think i was so exctited to talk about my quit, i didnt have time to cave LOL. But I made it through.

As i read more on the forum, and i read threads with people who caved, or people who just cant wrap their mind around KTC, it is starting to make me angry. I have 2 beautiful daughters and could not bear the thought of losing 1 single day with them in exchange for that nasty weed. Yet people here treat their quit like some sort of joke, or something to pass the time between dips. Quitting like fu.ck is hard as fu.ck, and i can not stand when people commit to the quit and are full of s.hit. That ryhmes LOL.

God 12 days sounds like so little, but its the longest i have gone without a dip in 10+ years. jesus i was stupid. No more though. I am a full time quitter!

I can not thank KTC or some of the guys I have met on here for their help. I truly understand that the fight to quit is a fight for my life. And having total strangers who care enough about my quit to help, shows the caliber of ppl KTC draws.

Thanks for reading my needlesly long post. Quit Long, Quit Hard!!!!!
Very well said. I love that the majority of the people here are serious as cancer about quitting. It will get better in your quit group as the slackers and cavers disappear. Pretty soon the next new group will have to deal with them. I quit with you today! Please hit me up if I can do anything to help and CONGRATS ON 12 DAYS THAT IS SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF. JUST QUIT ODAAT. 'boob'
Keep on plowing through Lambo. Glad to see you make through the challenge. ODAAT. Why go back when there is so much more to look forward to?
Brother, there is nothing little about 12 days of quit. That is awesome. They add up so fast and things get so much better too! Keep going. Good Post!
I'm on day 54 and there have been days that I can't remember my number either. The fog is a bitch.

You're not alone in this fight. Hit any of us up if you need anything. I'm in the same boat with you - I have 2 daughters as well. I keep a picture of them handy at all times. If I EVER get a craving, which are becoming more rare everyday, all I have to do is look at the picture. Has almost brought me to tears thinking about how stupid I was and how stupid it would be to EVER dip again.

Stay quit quitter!
12 days is freaking awesome! You are winning ODAAT!
Quit on!
