Hi Mike,

50yo here. Dipped 37 yrs. Quit now 275 days. I chew gum like a mad man at times and use Bacc-Off non-tobacco chewing blend.

I'd love to talk with you about the nicotine effects with your heart if (and when) you are willing.

Quit with you today!

Thank you all, posted roll....great advice found was mint substitute helped with one hell of fog this morning....push on  up...no more nicotine!!
Great work, there is some great support and advice here.
My advice is to have a wide variety of candy, gum, and fake chew, etc. I use flavored toothpicks.
Stay active, build a network of support and quit each day.

Look you're a big boy, you can do this but I will tell you it's damn hard but a helluva lot better than dying! Don't mean to sound so harsh just speaking truth! Hey the 2 olé guy's beast and rawls very dependable hard core badass quitters keep them on your side! Get you some candy, gum, fake chew whatever it takes ,craves will hit you hard and often. I will not pussy foot around with you . I'm straight forward don't want no surprises for you. Get you some numbers, mine if you want just pm guy's be more than happy to help! Damn proud to be quit with you today my friend!
Tobacco is so addictive it took me a year after a massive heart attack, in which doctor confirmed caused from dipping to finally put a lid on the bitch! ODAAT EDD

Mike - You made a great decision. A racing heart is nothing to mess around with. It sounds like you have a pretty good quit plan already. I quit with you today. Stay with it!

Hi, Mike here....33 years in the can , coming out today. a couple weeks back had a big scare with racing heart, did the hospital scene and all that. what it came down to was poor choices, dipping being the biggest....So I had been cutting back over the last several weeks  after reading through your website decided to go all in!!
Mike, congratulations on the best decision of your life! Flush anything you have left down the toilet, and post your promise. Proud to be quit with you today
Dive in Mike. It sucks at first, and then it is awesome not to be a slave anymore! HMQ, and LBBQ to you today!
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.
