Golfpro congrats on the 2nd floor today. You have become a good friend and a great quitter. Lets get that year together. Way to be!
I second this! Congrats to Golfpro for hitting another milestone
Thanks guys, you know the feeling is mutual.

I've shared this story with a couple of guys here, but yesterday I had a moment. I've been really trying harder to lose some weight. Haven't done much exercising but changed some major things in my diet. I haven't had a diet coke in over 4 months. I switched to very low carb, I haven't had any booze in over 2 weeks......FUCKING NONE. Obviously, I cut the fast food out too.

So, I get on the scale yesterday after 2.5 weeks  see that I haven't lost nearly as much as I expected. Right at that moment, a little voice in the back of my head tells me that a can would probably help me lose more weight faster. No shit. On day 199, that was a thought that actually popped into my fucking head. It left almost as soon as I had it, but I heard it. Crazy fucking addict mind.

I wouldn't be at 200 without KTC  the accountability that we share around here. I'll stay quit for the rest of today  post roll again tomorrow.
Well done golf, you have earned that 2nd floor, keep up the great quit

(and it is 'funny' how those thoughts can still pop in our heads, but with what we learn here we can kick them aside very quickly)
What these guys have said. We are Iron, we are friends, we are brothers, we are QUIT. Every. Damn. Day.
The weight we could lose by starting again might be a couple lbs of our jaws and tongues.
ODAAT brother. Proud of you.

Proud to be quit with you Golfpro! You are a great leader with the March 14' Iron Men!
I'll gladly second my boy Starr on what he said. The 3 of us and banjo had the opportunity to share something unique as conductors. Just that experience alone helps to solidify my quit every day and I wouldn't trade that for anything.

Just some private time with the ball washer would be good for me.
Some of my fondest and clearest memories are peeing in places that aren't bathrooms.

I've shot a 172 for 18 holes before. But as a quit number it's fantastic. Quit with the Golfpro today!

Day 172. Amazing.

My best friend was a cigar smoker on the course. Went through a couple each 18. He stopped cold turkey when he turned 40. He's a couple years older than I am so he kept telling me that he expected me to quit dipping when I turned 40. I promised him that I would.

I beat him to that deadline by 168 days  I did it for me on my terms.

I've said this in every post I've written, but I wouldn't have been successful without KTC. I post roll every morning. I tend to the roll spreadsheet on my days. I had the privilege of being a conductor for the Resolute Bastards. I don't get into chat very often  I don't post roll in as many other groups as I'd like to; I need to do better with that.

I've gotten to know a bunch of good assholes here that I'm happy to call friends. It was weird, at first, sharing my cell number with some random numnut on the internet but those numnuts have saved my quit more than once.

damn straight I'm quit today.......I promised those mother fuckers in March that I wouldn't use nicotine today. Another +1.

First, a big thanks to Pinched for putting my favorite avatar on the top of my intro, so I can easily distract myself as I go blind.....

Thanks for all the kind words. I think it was best said around here that 100 days isn't the finish line, it's a milestone. There is no tomorrow, just quitting today  it just so happens to be the 100th day in a row that I've told Nicotine to 'Finger'

I told Rdad that I'll be posting my +1's here until the day they shut down the Internet.

KTC works if you let it  I also got lucky that I got in with a bunch of good motherfuckers that support each other.
