Stride Gum in the dark blue box, not too sweet and last for hours. If you want a burn the cinnamon will give it to you for a few minutes.
did you know that you can chew the paper that Stride is wrapped in?

Try it.
Chew the wrappers huh? OK, next crave I'll give it a try. I'll tell you one thing though, the girlfriend is enjoying my oral fixation.
you take your teeth out for that? :rolleyes:

CLOSE THE DOOR. In my opinion, it?s the single most important step in your final quit. There is one moment, THE moment, when you finally let go and surrender to the quit.
After that moment, no temptation will be great enough, no lie persuasive enough to make you commit suicide by using tobacco. SportDad 1/13/05

Just an FYI on the whole gum issue. Some people, like myself, get headaches from sugarfree gum. In fact any food item with the sugar substitute they use in sugar free products gives me a headache. For that reason, I like to alternate between big red and juicy fruit throughout the day.
There's nothing nicotine has to offer that I need. Never has been, never will be.

Thanks for the help, I 'll try Orbitz next time I need a pack, it shouldn't be long before I do.

I think I might need some help this weekend. If some folks would PM me with their #'s that would be helpful. I've been in misery the last two days, I don't want to screw this up in a moment of weakness. Having those #'s in my pocket would be great.

Welcome. Good to see another Coloradan quitting.

Orbitz was/is my gum of choice. Good flavor, lasts pretty good.

Let me know if I can help you with your quit. If you use the site the way it is intended, this will be the last time you ever have to quit.

65fl,
Welcome to the real world, good choice.
What part of Colorado are you from?
Castle Rock

Question, what is a good gum? I bought some Stride Forever Fruit this morning but it is way too sweet. Wow, I'm chewing gum. I never chewed gum, it took time away from that soothing and relaxing tobacco. Cope, it satisfies! My ass.

Anyway, what's a decent gum that is not too sweet.

I can't do seeds at work, besides I don't like seeds, they take away time from Cope.
Maybe I'll give some seeds a try tonight.
65fl

Try Orbits or Eclipes gum both helped me out in the begining. Castle Rock how close it that to Colorado Springs? Have a friend who lives there.

Would love to hunt that part of the country someday, maybe we'll hook up for a hunt one day.

If you need anything PM me questions phone number you name it just let me know.

Oh Yeah and Welcome to the rest of your dip free life!

65, it is great to see another person eager to join the ranks of quitters. This is the only place and the only reason I am proud to call myself a quitter. For quitting this makes us winners. Where is that little punk that said quitters never win and winners never quit? Use all the info and people here to help you stay quit. Make a real plan to overcome the triggers and urge to cave. You can't wing it because nicotine is serious about reeling you back into the can.
