Saw you posted roll call today Jeff.

Well Done. Well Done.

Failure is not an option. Period.

Semper Fi.

Jeff,

If you are here and actually posting, which you are, It's time. You have already made the decision. You just need a shove in the right direction. I was in your same situation seven days ago. I just went ahead and jumped in.

NOW. TAKE THE SHIT OUT OF YOUR MOUTH AND THROW AWAY ALL OF YOUR STASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Then come back in here, note the date and time and sign in at roll call.

Welcome!

I found this site while searching for answers and solutions. I'm sure my story has been heard many times. I've been chewing for just shy of 10 years. At the peak (college summer baseball leagues) I was ripping threw a couple cans per day. Mostly Skoal straight and wintergreen. In recent years I've cut way back to about 2 cans per week. This was an attempt to cut back and eventually kick the habit. However I've been in a holding pattern. I've been riding the 2 can plan for too long. I needed something to help me finally drop the chewing. I've tried to quite cold turkey with no support a handful of times. I figured I was strong enough to just quit. Apparently, it's harder than it seems.

I now work for a industrial construction company. I never chew in the office but as soon as I hit the truck a lip stretcher is soon to follow. It's even tougher when I'm in the field working 12 hour days 7 days a week. I'm getting married in December and would like to have 100 plus days under my belt before the stress of wedding planning hits full tilt.

I have not picked a quit date yet. As suggested I think I need to just sack up, bite the bullet, and stop ASAP. Ideally I'd like to be on my way to freedom before the golf/lawn mowing/fishing season starts. These seem to be my triggers for chew. My roughly drafted plan includes using alternative products to assist my habitual triggers. Any recommendations for any particular products are welcome.

I look forward to using this resource as a guide. It can be done!

Thanks - Jeff

Welcome to the site Pillsbury. As far as picking a quit date goes, I have heard that 2/7/2008 seems to be about the best day you can choose. There is no better time than right now. Flush your stash, sign roll call in the May 08 group, and get ready for a ride. If you quit right now, there will be no chance of the next dip being the "bad" one.

This site should not be just a reference to you. It should become a way of life, if only for a while. Posting roll is giving your word that you will not use tobacco for today and today alone. You would be surprised how much giving your word to a bunch of strangers will mean to you....that is....if you're a man of your word.

Here's a couple of links to help you get motivated to trash the stash. (The underlined text below are links, just click on them)

Jenny  Tom Kern's story. Well worth the time it takes to read!

Here's one possible destiny.

Can you imagine how a simple task like going to a C-store would change with this fate.

These things that are in those links can happen. It is time to draw a line in the sand. Are you ready to save your life?
