I have been bad about posting lately, since reaching the HOF. But, I have remained quit and I am proud to say today is 118. To those reading this, you CAN DO IT. One day at a time. Posting is what I need to do, although I have been bad. Seriously, post up. It's important. I posted today. I am quit today.

Thanks August 2011

I'm glad to see this FL. This site works because of the commitment of the vets. And make no mistake, you're a vet. December is coming up soon. That's four months away from us. We're vets. We need to be active to help them.

I'm proud to be a Quithead with you.

Today is day 94 and I have started to get much more active on the KTC. I have moved past the fog, anger (For the most part) and it's been a lot better. I don't miss the can right now and only during very high stress do I sometimes have a craving. I am 6 days from the HOF and I have no doubt I will make it and beyond. My emotional state has started to relax and I am not so anxious. I cannot tell you how paranoid I had been acting over the last several weeks.

They don't put tons of chemicals inside that crap to make you feel good. They load it with everything possible to make you feel like crap, if and when you try to quit. It's their insurance policy to keep you coming back. Not me, no more. I am not a slave to the can.

Today is day 94 and I am quit today.

If you are reading this, skip to the very first entry and read from there. Today is a good day, but know that the journey is tough. If I can quit, then it's possible for anyone. I am an addict and yet, I am quit.

FL-I read from the beginning. My quit is stronger because of it, thanks for sharing. Did you brief the crew on this site?

Today is day 89, just one day short of 9/10 of the way to the HOF. Man, this is the best quit I have ever done. I am not going back. Every time I have a craving, a moment of thinking about a dip, I force myself to think about what I had to go through to get to today. So I say hell no dip!!! You can kiss it! I have worked to hard and long for you to control me dip. I am in control now. One day at a time.

On a side note, I've had some headaches lately, some sadness.... but, a good KTC buddie tells me it's just my brain reprogramming and rewiring itself. I tend to believe him, after all, it took 13 years for me to screw it up.

I wish everyone a good quit. I will fight the dip with all my fellow quitters. Keep on the good fight and you can do it. If I can quit, then anyone can quit.

See you in the HOF.

Today is Day 74. I am feeling a lot better than I did over a month ago. I am now working on weight reduction, given I have put on about 15 pounds since I quit. I can deal with that, given it's only temporary. I am proud of myself and more confident than ever. If I can quit the can, I can do anything.

This is still one day at a time, but I am strong in my quit.

Thanks for all that have supported me.

Day 46: Had a headache the last couple of days. Kind of mild headache, but enough to cause me to notice. I remain quit and see the good that comes from being quit. I quit today with everyone at the KTC.

Today is Day 43 and I cannot believe I have made it this far. There have been rough times, but I have made it this far and I remain committed to my quit.

Recently I joined a 5k run/walk, hosted by MAD for Healthy Smiles, to benefit the Oral Cancer Foundation. It's going to be fun and lots of my friends are sponsoring me, thus giving me even more reason to stay focused on my quit.

To all who read this, when you make your decision to quit, your brothers and sisters here at the KTC will be here to support you.

I quit you Skoal Mint. I am not willing to be a slave to the can.
