Lots of things have changed in these last 1,000 days but the best things are:

2. I have become a more patient person that my family can and does enjoy!
3. Saved $5,000 dollars instead of ruining my mouth!
4. Found great support and loyalty on an online support group that was and is very needed.
5. Learned what it was like to mentor and be mentored thanks to ALL!

Grizzly25 Day #962

Been a good day, started like any other day.....
woke up and shit, showered  shaved....
Poured coffee woke up kids and drove to work.
Came into my office set the coffee cup down and passed out pay checks to the midnight crew, then collected labor cards.
I managed to get my morning tasks out of the way with little problems, talk to my days crew and came back to my office.
POSTED ROLL!!!!!!!
Posted on my great friend Cbird's page and continued on my days activities....

I have been thinking of how the journey to being quit has started all day for some reason, I really think its because some of my quit friends are reaching the comma milestone.
I think back to when this started and what an angry guy I had been while I was chewing and where my life has gone since I found KTC and Quit Like Fuck!

I will have my oldest daughter graduate this year.... never thought I would see this without chewing .......
My oldest son is quite the athlete in 3 sports Basketball, Football,  Baseball, he could very easily be playing varsity basketball this season ...as a Freshmen! ......never thought I would see that day without chew.....
My youngest daughter is now 13 and all interested in boys, volleyball, basketball,  softball.........never thought I would be ok with my baby girl being interested in boys and not wanting to kill them without the help of Grizzly....
My youngest son is slowing starting to remind my parents of me... and we all no that karma kid is always fun!!! ...... I didnt think I would be able to handle this without chew......

I look back and see where I have grown and become a little better, I truly think the help I was able to find here was the one thing I truly needed.
This site is fantastic and the best way to quit and stay that way, here you will find advise, avenue to vent, a good kick in the ass, and most of all support!

Not really sure why I wrote this other than its my thoughts, I really hope that someday I can help other quiters as much as Cbird helped me, even if its a way to reflect on what good can come from taking your life back from nicotine and becoming a badass quiter.

Wait what? I respect that you are closing in on your comma, but you say you are around dippers a lot, and still get frequent craves. Next you say that you'll stop posting after you get your comma, and in the next line say that KTC is still the best way to quit... Sounds to me like you are planning your cave.

I just don't get why you would stop posting.
Why are you stopping? Please respond.
I know where to go if I were to get worried about caving, just need to continue to move forward is all.

Planning a cave????

Not sure about that one but hey all good here I am surrounded by many dippers, but, I have no intention of caving!
Lets not worry about tomorrow.

Today is all we got man.
In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

Ignoring history or erasing history fixes nothing and leads you inevitably down the same path.-69franx 04/30/2021

Day 921.....

Has been tough but I am Quit Like Fuck and intend on staying that way!

I have had times where the temptation has been more frequent than other times, I work with many people who chew and the temptation is literally everywhere.
I can honestly say there has been at least 3 times in the last month that the idea of having just 1 chew has crossed my mind......

Fortunately 921 days ago I found KTC and have kept my promise and not given in, unfortunately just the fact that after 921 days the temptation can still exist sucks!

It is also the reminder that I am an addict....... so I can never really let my guard down or let my resolve slip in any way.

Grizzly25/Lou....out

You have almost double the quit I have and I know what your talking about. I still am tempted at times and wonder if I still will be tempted where your at. I guess you just answered that.

Funny thing is I remember being tempted before I ever put the first chew in my mouth though!! HMMMMMMMMM! Sure beats craving and being owned by the poison. Quit with you today grizzly. Thanks for being here for 900+

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.

Day #800......

Quiting like fuck is not easy but man is it rewarding.

I have developed much more patience than I could have ever imagined, my family has enjoyed the quit and continues to remind me of the better peson I have become!

I have say thank you to this amazing web site where dumb ass addicts like myself have found many others who want to stop being a slave to the can, we have decided to make our promise like men and keep that promise everyday! This site has given myself and many others the support and guidance needed to battle this foe known as nicotine and win! We don't ever get to say we are cured we say WE are QUIT!!!!

I hope that all the new quiters and even the vets can continue to stay focused stay strong and most of all stay QUIT!!!!!

Advise to the newbies ..... get numbers be active  KEEP YOUR PROMISE!!!!
Congrats on 800 Lou. Quitting is simple but not easy. Choosing to quit every day is worth celebrating!
'BanDog'
Your posts have been an inspiration, as is the example of hitting 800 and having good words to share! Congrats!
