Hey bro, Wrestling taught me that what we decide we can do is pretty much the outer limit of that which is possible. Sacrifice plays into the equation, somehow. My motivation is life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness...You?

I am a 28 year old male. I have been dipping for a little over 10 years. My finance had talked to me about doing the Whole30 diet to combat her PCOS and wanted my help while doing it. I agreed to do it but one of the catches was that you also had to quit nicotine while on the diet. I have been telling myself I need to quit from the day I started and made it about 68 at one point in time but ultimately failed. I told her that I would gladly do this with he and my true motivation was not to lose a pants size or two but to kickstart my quitting chew.

I think that having a community and family of quitters with me will greatly improve my chances this time though. I believe that there is strength in numbers.

I have succeeded in wrestling, one of the toughest physical and mental sports in my opinion, but it is truly not the mental battle that nicotine addiction is. I know this is going to be a huge challenge but I'm not a wimp and I am ready to do this for myself. I want to prove to myself just how tough I can be.

Welcome.

I really dont care how tough you can be or are. All I care about is can you keep your word, 24 hours at a time. Yes, that can be tough but it is tougher to kiss your kids good night with half a face.

You also need to take a long hard look at yourself. Thoae that succeed are those that come here for themselves. Coming here on a deal with a finance for a 30 day diet...doesnt boad well in the long run.

Not being an ass, just a reality check here. I want to see you succeed, just preparing you for the reality.
There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

My journey. The best part it is not over yet.
