One year has passed since I have not started my morning with a chew. What changed is me and my thinking. As my journey started I learned many things. I am not alone. I needed to swallow my pride and learn from those that have traveled the road before me. All those grizzled vets that would do anything to help, be it a pat on the back or a kick in the ass.

I watched special butterflies come in and try to re-invent the wheel. Always a head shaking experience for me. Why would anyone alter a winning formula when their life is on the line is beyond insane to me.

The example laid out is easy to follow, the path is well worn with sign posts,   "THIS WAY TO FREEDOM".  Post roll call, keep your promise and repeat. One day at a time. The more numbers you have the easier the journey.

I thank the Lord for providing me this site and the many angels I have encountered here in this forum.

One year,, that is great. Congrats omahaflyer.

'oh yeah'

great job - keep it up

Congratulations on one year Omaha. It has been an honor and a priviledge to walk this road with you. I always looked for your "on my honor" and "thanks be" posts. Those words are very meaningful.

Onward.

On my honor, thanks be. Congratulations on a huge milestone achievement! Many more to come, but today is a big one! Thanks for being a constant and steadfast supporter of our April 2013 group!!

Last Saturday, for the first time in 35 yrs, I  watched a Husker game w/o chew. Used fake during the game but I did not feel any desire to put nicotine into my body. I NEVER thought that day would come.

I stand here before you and proclaim that this site works. Read, listen and follow the path that has been laid out before you.

If you have trouble finding the correct path, look for the well-worn one with the vets walking slowly, looking to assist any stragglers. Blazing your own trail is not recommended.

OF,

i had brisket on the smoker and momma was having a garage sale.

A buddy in AA was a native of Laramie was giving the husker fans some crap last night about nearly doing it.

I am not much of a rabid fan, I lost interest back when TO took over the program from Deveny. TO never could get it together until later. I remember sitting in the south stadium in Nov of 76 freezing my ass off watching it slip away to Barry Switzer.

A few thoughts as I near 200 days. This is such a simple process, make a promise, keep it and repeat. Simple but not easy that is the jux of the problem.

It has been stated on this site numerous times that we have an addict's mindset. My process was made easier for me when I accepted that premise and started my day with that thought.

While I am thankful of the journey that I started on 3 Jan 13 at age 53, SOB, I wish I had found this site sooner.

Thank you.

You nailed every word. And, although it is easier as the days stack up, the addiction is still there. When I started this journey, my "goal" was to cure myself of the addiction.

We let our integrity set the way - posting our word every day and keeping it; our resolve gets us through the day to day triggers and craves; and develop a mindset that carries us through the unforeseen things that could be temptations. As time goes by, i find that I really no longer care about a cure. The way "out" makes us better men. Or in the case of sage, women.

It has been an honor to be on this road together - and look forward to seeing you hit a lot more milestones.

Bravo m'man... Thank you for your example bro.

Congrats on 200 OF. It has been great to quit with you all along the way. What do say we just keep right on marching on up to the 3rd floor. We have come this, why stop now??

I will take every step with you. Promise me that you will drag my fat ass if you have to.

oh brother - the gheys here will have a field day with your ...ask no questions and I'll tell you no lies

Keep it fresh and frosty
