Rman Tks for taking the time to post that. I am on day 28 and I know I will make it all the way as I will continue to post roll and keep my word. For me it is that simple. Not easy but very simple. It is great to hear how much better the future ahead is for us guys following. I quit with you.
I would rather lose to a cheater than win as a cheater.

Why do they sell this crap? Better question, why did I buy it? Your story about "more important than my college graduation" says it all.

Sincerely,

Matt F in my 10th log on to this site today (at least) :lol:

To all the quitters just starting there journey I thought I'd give you a little encouragement.  I quit on feb 21 2013 so I'm with the may 2013 HOF class.  Not gonna lie, I didn't think I'd make it very long being quit.  It's not that I didn't want to be quit I just really didn't have the confidence in myself that I could stick it out.  This site was my confidence when I needed it.  Tomorrow will be 95 days for me and I couldn't be happier.  No shit, I think t means more to me then my college graduation.  To be free from nicotine is worth every shitty moment that comes along with the first couple weeks.  It gets easier I promise.  I wasn't a 30 year chewer but it had me for 12 years and that was my whole adult life as I knew it.  I'm now 28 years old and feel much better about my future now that dip isn't part of my daily routine.  If you've got the balls to find this site and choose to kick the nic habit, you won't find any lack of support.  If you want to be quit then you found the right spot.
Outstanding read rman.I love the fact that you are owning your quit and realize the importance of this site in your quit. I have been with you in your quit the whole time MAYSTER..it is unfortunate that I haven't been given the opportunity to get to know you better.I hope that you will stick around past the HOF and give me that chance Sir. I think we have both earned it.Proud to be quit with you today.See you in the a.m. QLF

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

I realized this morning that I'm 18 days into my quit.  I doubt that I've ever been this committed to anything.  I feel like some of the triggers that were brutal in the first ten days are beginning to feel less like cravings and more like little victories I can smile about and be happy that I'm quit for good.  I definitely wouldn't have got here on my own, KTC and all of you that helped support me in the beginning I thank you big time.
Yeah, same here. I am going on Day 16 and I have definitely noticed a "normalcy" trend over the past few days. As I fight these cravings it seems my body is beginning to make that transition into re-learning. Makes me realize the past two weeks have been shitty, albiet priceless, and I need to never forget that!

Congrats, quitting with you bro!
Nice work, I am quitting with both of you today!

Now is the time to be careful as well, don't become complacent and that is easy once you feel you have it beat.

Great work boys.....

But as mentioned, you are not out of the woods yet....sure the nic is out of your system.....but the Bitch is lurking, waiting.......protect your quit....

Quit with you today
Cleanfuel is exactly right. Beware the traps. Have you plan in place and have some contacts handy. Making a plan ahead of time is very important. That way you know what to do when the going gets tough. Lay it out here if you want.

Print the contract, get some number, ....... whatever works for you. Just be prepared.

Or, just stare at CleanFuel's avatar. That'll surely help.
Only one short observation. You say you have never been this committed to anything, I doubt that! We have all been that committed to our addiction. Listen to all the advise given and stay close to your quit brothers.

I am right here with you on 13! I have found some triggers that do not make a lot of sense. I quit with you today, congrats on 18 brother!

ALL that shit is hard. But all triggers that need to be tackled. The first time I golfed without dip I almost passed out 6 holes in, but I made it through the round. Felt like SHIT but I made it. I felt proud the next day though. Then..the next time I went I felt a lot better. The 3rd time and everytime since I hardly even thought about it.

I'm not gonna blow smoke up your asses and say all will be good the first time you hunt, fish, camp, etc...without dip. Most likely there will be some craves/struggles. However I will puff some truth up your bunghole and tell you it does get easier, the more you do it.

Just gotta get out there and tackle that shit..it might be hard but you wont die. And it will get easier. Live Dammit!!!!! Don't let the bitch keep you from the things you love.
Diesel, you crack me up man. "Blow some smoke up your bunghole" Where the hell do you come up this shit?? I am telling you, laughing a little bit everyday makes the quit easier. Thanks. And you alway manage to squeeze some damn fine wisdom in that humor too.

It's 5:30 in the morning on day 10.  I got the best night sleep since dai 1 last night.  No messed up dreams, sweats or tossing and turning.  Feels awesome to be quit 10 days.
congratulations on day 10 and getting a good night sleep! Amazing what that will do for you.
I starting sleeping better on day 10 or so also. Day 16 now and sleep is about normal. Actually I'm thinking its better. I'm not waiting up for that last dip and I'm not stumbling over my shoes in the morning to get to that can. I'm quit with you brother.
