Dan,

Sorry I missed your day yesterday.... been a bit under the weather, but noticed you came in today posting a 501! Taking this trip with you and the rest of the Sultans has been truly rewarding. Proud to be quit with you, Sir! 500, as they say, "ain't nuthin' to sneeze at!".
I agree ... it's been a pleasure watching you quit! Onwards!!

100 days is great, as long as you treat it as a milepost not and end. Enjoy yourself then get back to posting. I certainly leaned on my daily roll call promise to fight off caves well beyond 100 days.

Congrats! I need to find a quit group......don't know where to start

Holy Crap. Just read your intro. It is an exact replica of myself. We really are not special and unique. We are addicts. Congrats on your HOF. I am proud to quit with you any day of the week.

Congrats on the HOF tomorrow ... you've been a SOLID quitter, worthy of the name Sultan. Enjoy the day, then start to think about re-focusing. Too many reach the HOF and become complacent. Remember it is not the end, and you are not cured ... it's just a milestone (a big one though!). Proud to quit with you every damn day, and I will continue to do so EDD!! Well done bad-ass!

Oc - enjoyed reading your intro page. Alot of it struck a chord with me...especially being in a professional environment with a rub in. It appears you WILL be one of the 1st SULTANS to hit HOF.
Proud to quit with you and the Sultans. QLF each and every day bro-

Awesome intro....

welcome to the jungle

Read, Read, Read, Read......one of the things that convinced me early that I could do this was all the testimonials from others that are getting it done with the aid of this site......it is a very simple formula.....

establish accountability thru roll call

establish an education with regard to your addiction by reading and learning

establish relationships with your quit group

establish a determination that your word is your bond....and your integrity is not for sale to big tobacco and your addiction

Take it one day at a time......do not think in terms of forever or the rest of your life.....make today....at all costs....no excuses.

Ask for help when you need it

Give help when you are asked......

You are off to an awesome start......ole mule gonna have your back and be watching you.....

you got this
