Hello Everyone,
I'm new as of today and I believe I'm in the July quit group. I'm a father of 4 kids, oldest of which is 4 years old. In 2006 I made my wife stop smoking so that we could start having kids. I've since smoked or chewed in front of her and the kids on several occassions while she hasn't smoked since Dec 31, 2006. She was a pack a day smoker since she was 15. I'm a complete and total hypocritical dick for stashing packs of smokes around the house and sneaking dip whenever I can. I'm a sales road warrior and most of my coworkers and buddies on the road are smokers. I absolutely love a nice chew while driving 200 miles to some destination. My dad and I often have a chew while drinking beers and watching sports. It might be tough but I do not want nicotine of anykind - it's a known carcinogen. Why would I knowingly use cancerous substances at the possible risk of not being there for my wife and kids? I don't want this fake rat poison shit in my system anymore - I'm done. Now what?
