mucho aprreciato.  very committed.  can't pretend anymore.  I was a "sneaker", sneaking dips at work, on drives to the grocery store.  just dumb.  and my son sees someone chewing and says "that's not smart, that'll kill them" and there i am killing myself.  not no mo!!  kickin' the bitch.
'Sneaker', 'ninja' whatever you call it many of us lived that life. Still my wife is the only one around me that knows I dipped (for 40 years). I'm also a ninja quitter, don't figure my addiction is anyone else's business. That is one of the reasons the site is so important to me. I've got friends here that I can talk to about my addiction.
Too much stress to carry around each day, wondering when you get caught. Never mind the mouth. The heart, via stress, doesn't like it either. Never again, my friend. Just finished a 5-mile run with the wife. Used to try and do my runs on my own, as it was a chance to get a chew in. Love running with my wife!! Love living clean!! Thanks for the support.

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.

Alrighty.  Day 2 in the books.  Work is the toughest part, as I never chewed at home, always at work.  Hammering the gum and sunflower seeds and swearing of the bitch called Skoal!!  98 to go!!
Great work RMQ, keep it up! But remember the finish line isn't just at 100 days.
Awsome job on day two. two more days and that krap will be out of your system. Wait until it's all out and you take a look around without the nicotine in your system. Everything seems to take on new life. In a few more hours it will be time to post up for day three,, that's as far as i would look ahead, rocky. One minute, one hour, one day. Glad to be quit with you rocky.
Awesome job! That's how we do it 1 day at a time!

Well, went to make my pledge for the day.  Screwed that up, but made the pledge nonetheless.  It went under the support from other bad ass Quitters, rather than the new bad ass Quitters.  I'll get it dialed.  And I'll keep on it!!
Great job. Its a right of passage to fuck up roll. You'll get the hang or it. Guarantee in a week or two you'll look back at all this and laugh.

The important thing is YOUR QUIT!!! Great fucking job, you studly son of a bitch!!!!
Screw up roll, just dont screw up your quit!
nice to see your name on roll today, my first week I posted roll in the wrong month one day...
