Raven- I was going to tell you something really profound and inspirational but then I saw sas's avatar and forgot what it was. Sorry! Peace

Raven, welcome to the group. Keep posting roll and make that promise to yourself. We can all beat the nic bic. July 2011.

I'm new too Raven, on day 33 or 4 depending on who you ask. Day 3 was the worst for me, and somewhere around 10 to 14 days in (I didn't mark the calendar) a crave to end all craves hit me like a tsunami! Thank goodness it was at like 10PM and I just fought it till midnight and fell asleep. Look out for that one guys.
Oh, and I'm chewing the fake stuff like a madman. Don't think it will be forever, but right now, it helps.
Go Team July 2011!!!!!

Thanks guys. Still gutting out my Day 3. Raven, go post Roll Call. It's what makes the difference. We need you in this Quit with us. You are one of our July 2011 Quit Brothers. Dash is here too and so is SR and Corn and Blue and Greg and jay and let us know if there is anything we can do. Let's be Quit together. I posted Roll Call today and today I am Quit. Peace

You guys are doing great and the right thing. Stick close to your group and talk as often as you can. Use all of the tools available to you.

Keep pushing through the suck!

PM me if anyone needs a number.

Raven-Looking for your name in Roll Call. We are in this together. My cravings are much worse today than they were yesterday but I posted Roll Call so today, no matter what, I am Quit. Peace

Peace: Hang in there! I feel good physically on day 5. I must say, today is the first day I didn't wake up with a raging headache! I do feel a bit jumpy, but all in all not bad!

Be the quit!!!!

Raven-Glad you posted Roll Call today. I had a pretty tough Day 2 but I'm in the final stretch. Will be looking for you at Roll Call tomorrow. Let me know if there is anything I can do. Peace

Raven, I am in your July group and I am getting through Day One. I am using Smokey Mountain and I sprinkled some Cayenne Pepper in it to give it a little kick. It's the wintergreen-I dipped Kodiak for thirty years. I also run 3-5 miles about every other day. I am quit today. TMP

I have been chewing for the past 20 years. Now it's time to stop. This is my 4th day being dip free. I have been chewing smokey mountain and gum + I have been going to the gym. Feel great at this point. I do 3.5 miles of running just about everyday.

Should I keep chewing the smokey mountain.

welcome raven,

Congratulations on your quit. Sounds like you are doing the right things. As far as using smokey mountain: My opinion is stuff that in your face if it helps you stay quit. Most will tell you that you will give that up on your own in due time. Post roll as the FIRST thing you do every day. It's your promise not to use nicotine for just that day. Tomorrow you wake up and do it all over again. Quittin one day at a time, that's how we roll. Your group is July, a fine group of quitters who are going through just what you are.

Glad to be quit with you,

I chewed the fake shit like it was my job early on. My .02 is to use it as you need it. Fake, seed, gum, candy, toothpicks, straws, whatever works.

Around day 250 I just stopped using the fake, had no need for it anymore. It did serve a purpose early on and helped me tremendously.

Glad you are here ! Get settled in.

STAY QUIT
Greg

Welcome raven, and at day 4 you've already made great progress so well done. Keep with it it gets easier and at some point the cost and hassle of packing a fake dip will outweight the appeal. In the meantime do what it takes to keep from using nic.
