Week 1 complete! ... No craves today which is a great feeling. I am starting to feel sick though. Actually physically sick. Could it have something to do with going cold turkey after 7 years of what felt like constantly dipping? I feel like my body has been in shock all week and now I am getting sick. Maybe its just coincidence. Thoughts?
Might just be sick.

Had a rough time sleeping last night. Worst insomnia I think I've ever had. I had a monster headache along with a serious nic-fit. Got up early and came down to LA for my other job. Feeling a little better now minus being extremely tired.

Not having a great morning, but I made a promise to be nicotine free today. I will keep my word.

Proud to be quit another day.
Never again for any reason.

Proud of you.

It will get so much better. You have no idea how great things will get.
What he says is gospel - it WILL get better. Dude, I didn't sleep for shit the first month. Then it just went back to normal one day. The insomnia seems to be fairly common so don't sweat it.

Good job. Stay the course.

Just finished eating a bad ass dinner here at work. Nice full stomach. This is the time I normal sit in the big comfy recliners and throw in a fatty dip.

Nic-Bitch is really fucking with me right now. Staying strong.
Get up. Walk. Don't sit on your ass. Change your program. Change your routine. Be proactive not reactive. Come on now. Get up and let those quitter balls swing.

If you don't want to slip, don't go to slippery places.
I'd recommend walking that meal off. But do not head anywhere near a gas station or tobacco shop. Just had a hearty meal myself and had an immediate craving. Decided to head to the gym for a quick cardio sesh. Craving past and I have achieved homeostasis.

Don't give into that bitch/whore/ C U Next Thursday of Nicotine. The power is yours and I have faith in you to remain quit for today.

Best,
JMAC

Thanks, bud. I feel a little better this morning. Still anxious but the headache is gone. Slept pretty good last night too.

The wife told me that we're supposed to be going down to the beach for a Halloween/Birthday party for someone she went to school with. It's got me a bit nervous. I made a promise to myself and all of you not to use nicotine today. I will keep that promise. No matter how much it sucks. I also promised myself that I won't drink tonight. I think it would be near-impossible to stay strong if I got a good buzz on. Its going to be rough though. I have a few numbers. I will use them if I need to.

Thanks again for the continued support everyone. Proud to quit with you today.
Stay totally away from booze early in your quit. I have seen more than one quit wrecked by booze. You will have plenty of time for drinking when your quit is stronger.



STAY QUIT

I'm pretty proud of myself for getting through my first weekend without a dip. Feels good knowing I did it. I feel way better today. I don't even crave this morning. Can't thank you all enough. So happy. Thanks.
Off to a great start. Now just keep adding today to the list and you will be fine.

It really is amazing all of the things that can be done without a dip in your face.

STAY QUIT

Good quitting right there! You have done 2 important things that will keep you quit and we can all learn from. The first is you gave your word, and you will keep it. The second thing is you have a plan for the day.
Good stuff, I'll quit with you today.
