Do not worry about weight gain at this point. Quit weight happens. The most important thing at this point is for you to focus all energy on your quit. You can worry about taking off the lbs in your 200's or so.

Quitsmokeless.org is still alive and kicking. In fact, we have a link to it on one of our Resource pages.

It is a different mentality, and there are a number of solid bad ass quitters that have been and still are active on both of these sites.

Some people here refer to the other site as 'The other site' or the 'Lite' site.

This is Quit Smokeless Extreme. It's in our fucking name. If you don't like the Extreme part, you are more than welcome to go quit with the Lite site. They have their successes.

But don't come in our house and try to change what works for thousands of us.
What is your major malfunction?!?!?!?!

So, after all this shit index.php?showtopic=4813st=0 are you now saying you understand the method to our madness, or are you just playing nice to get along?  You seemed pretty hell bent on trying to destroy our way of doing things.  Have you come around that easy?  Please enlighten me.
I am saying I understand the method to the madness.

The last site I used to quit, as I recall, had the same roll call method. The site was put to sleep. I wonder if this is the resurrected site. I didn't remember roll call as mandatory then.
Nothing is mandatory but death. We just ask you to respect our way of doing things.

Many of you have read my story how I quit for years, and that I have referred to another site that helped me quit. They had roll call as well. It went down in May of '06. I went to some old emails and found some of my old quit brothers from my class. I apologized for falling off the wagon.

The site was quitsmokeless.org. Are any of you gradautes of that program? It was very similar to this site.
