Day 23 End  24 Start - 8/7/13
Well where do I start.  Met more Vets and newbies yesterday and had a great time doing just that.  Even met an OG quitter "Penguin" who was at 3,459 Days QUIT.  What a BAD ASS!

Everyone that concluded my quit day in chat thank you.  I will in fact run my 7 miles promptly at 0430 tomorrow and then do my daily pull up challenge only to post that number up for my son to see and shoot for his number later.

Meeting new people made me reevaluate my QUIT and my drive.  However, I remain that I am pissed off and want my life back.  I have heard that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.  Well...I just dare anyone or anything to try and take this QUIT away from me a retired Marine with an attitude.

I am QUITTING for me and by me.  Each day my anger towards big Tobacco grows because each day something new triggers.  I tasted BBQ yesterday and holy hell it was great.  I mean I loved it before but damn the taste was hella better.  I could feel the texture, the meat was tender, the dry rub had a refined kick to it.  This QUIT might just make me into a food monster.

I still remain glued to my Duck Fip brothers and I hope that the group can settle in for the long haul and start kicking ass percentage wise.  Until then I PROMISE to REMAIN at 100%; not for any of you but for me, for the people I QUIT with each day and the people I will QUIT with in the future.  I love you all like brothers and now some sisters but this QUIT is all me.  Like the damn crabs form Finding Nemo "mine, mine, mine".

The temptation is not there for me today; will it come back I am betting on it; but when she tries to come back into my life she better have brass knuckles, mace, a tazer and some tow ropes because I ready to hand out a heaping platter of QUIT to her.  I have never backed down form a fight, though I have received a good ass kicking before; I am too stubborn not to come back until I win.

Much love to all my KTC brothers and sisters,

Great attitude! That's all I can say about this!

Day 23 - 8/6/13

Today started with no fog at all.  I even skipped my run and instead did my pull ups with my 11 yo son.  Yesterday was my first day ever in the chat room and I got erin spired by two newbies; I quit with both of you today and wish you luck.  The first two weeks suck.

Last night I got to know a few of the Vets better too.  I am quitting this Nicotine addiction but am quickly becoming a KTC junkie.  Lots of intel and a pretty cool group of people.

My Duck Fips continue to inspire me with their commitment, I just wish the rest of group would bend over, put their arms between their legs, grab ahold of each ear and quickly pull their head from their ass and start owning their Quit.

I have never been a fan of losing and I don't know anyone that is either.  I am taking back my life One Day At A Time, and there is now way that a drug os UST will win.  I have received a high level of training and am prepared to fight.  The Nic Bitch better prepare for the fight of her life because I am determined and pissed off.

I see some serious quit going on here. Keel it up bro. :)

I like the fact that you are in for a fight here. Build up your anger towards the poison. This is a battle and you can win. Don't give up an inch to the poison. Quit with you today!

No way you are going to let UST and a poison weed make you a slave again with that attitude! the 20-30s are a great time to build up your hate for nic and get that fight response strong!

Yeah Buddy! I am there with you.. Screw that damn whore!

'tough'

Keep motivating us Pinched...I need the accountability. Text people if they don't post roll or call them like a fatboy lickin an ice cream cone. I am Quit with you today and I will stay that way. Ducks Fly Together! QUACK! QUACK!

That's some strong ass quit attitude!!! I LOVE IT!!!! Gets me fired up.......

Day 22 - 8/5/13
Now officially back from vacation. Cravings were horrible this morning. So I ran 9 miles and then did Crossfit Fran today. She kicked me square in the @$$ today too. I guess a 4 day weekend full of putting terrible food in my body this is what I get.

Although the workout totally sucked once it was over the cravings were gone and that started at 4AM today it is now almost 8:30 and I am craving free and haven't used any lipper replacement therapy (no Chooch, Teaza or anything).

The drive to work was a typical drive into the office. I loathe driving in traffic, I also know that once I get to work everything that I had previously plus anything new will all be waiting there for me. So it will be a Monday with my nose to the grind. However, it will get done because that work and this forum help keep me from being distracted by the Nic Bitch.

After three weeks there are days or parts of days that suck because of the cravings but the rest of the day I feel great because there is no hiding, no sneaking around and most of all no constant spitting into trash cans and planters all over the place. My truck and my desk do not smell like freshly laid turds. My fingers do not look like they are rusted. My teeth are actually white, my gums are not sore, my sense of taste has been elevated to a new level.

For any of you out there wondering if you can do it...you sure has hell should be able to because although I am still in my battle and will be for some time the freedom and joy I feel know can only get better from here.

I quit with all of you today! To my KTC brothers and sisters keep up the quit and continue to be true to yourself and everyone on here.

Sorry KTC Brothers and Sisters I was out on vacation for a four day weekend. I took the family to the lake for some much needed RR. With our Summer chocked full from Boy Scouts and my coaching three different baseball teams; things finally relaxed so we could act like a family and not operate as individual units for one weekend.

This was a first time water skiing venture for my youngest two. The oldest has been twice before. I am proud to say that without using a boom all three of them can ski starting from the water. No sissy stuff in this family.

Driving the boat was one of the habits that went right along with my prior addiction. I a proud to let everyone know that I am still QUIT and I quit each day with a couple of my brothers who I had programmed into my phone. As sadistic as it sounds I actually missed logging in myself, posting roll then exploring the forum to see where I could leave my trail of $0.02.

However, I did get to spend that much more time with my family. The kids tested the hell out of my patience as I expected they would. My wife was supportive yet stern. We had fun, the kids were wrecked after each day on the lake but we did manage to spend a little time at the pool as well. No fishing was done and I am glad for that too. Three kids with a "city girl" wife means I don't fish; I run from kid to kid removing fish and rebating hooks. Thankfully my Boy Scout son has learned to do it all himself. However, this is another potential addiction pitfall.

The only close call we had with anything was some rude Jackass near the pool who decided to make a comment about my back tattoo. It is a picture of two crossed rifles with dog tags hanging from each gun barrel and then a list of name below that, for those that are wondering or needs a clue each name is a fallen brother who I fought with. I didn't hear the comment thankfully btu my wife did and she quickly spoke up about it. To which this lad decided he was gonna jaw with her.

I quickly and swiftly got in the middle of that little argument and as soon as I got loud three other guys came up who were his buddies and started acting tough. Little did they know that there were 4 other marines all in the same pool area. They decided to leave with their tails between their legs and decided that messing with one trained Marine with four others expressing their intent to jump onboard was too much for their Saturday afternoon.

I am not a big fan of fighting honestly but I will admit I am good at it. However, you can make a comment to me about just about anything; there are but three things that one can make a comment about that will get them an invitation to my boot on their tail: 1-Insult my family, 2-touch my family or 3- make a comment about my Country, my brothers or my service.

I do not walk around wearing a USMC t-shirt, ball cap or anything like that; but my ink goes with me everywhere. I am very proud to say that I served this country and I can say that some of the best Americans I have ever met didn't get to make it back home with me. I love this Country and every opportunity it has given me. Just make sure you don't act like a complete moron or you might get to learn what tricks I learned during my service.

None the less - Day 21 I quit with all of KTC, three weeks in the books and I look forward not back. I am not jumping ahead to the next day as each day I smile knowing that I kicked the @$$ of yet another day.

Nicely done bro :)
Pretty amazing, this new found freedom. Every +1 it gets a little easier to beat back the desire. I honestly can't even remember what it felt like to have that crap in my face anymore. I love that! Yer killin' this dude... Rock on!

Day 18 - Daily Diary

Woke this morning no run today. However just finished my daily pullup challenge with my 11 year old. We alternate workouts but we complete one "blank" per day of the week to see how many consecutive days we can go without a rest in between repetitions. Today is Day 27 for that. One of these days he may figure out that I could give a damn about winning this, because as a father nothing feels better than seeing your son complete that many of anything and do it smiling. If only my father had figured out a way to make exercising fun for me; that may have saved me a few beatings by DIs.

My day yesterday ended with rescuing my wife from the side of the highway with a punctured sidewall in her tire. She called and I was about 10 minutes away. She managed to make it over to the shoulder and I pulled up behind her in my F350 and parked it liked I owned that section of shoulder.

I was lowering her vehicle back down when motorist assist pulled up to see if they could help. Knowing that these guys risk their lives everyday doing their job; I made it a point to say thank you for your help. Traffic was flying by at about 70 MPH in the lane immediately next to where I was.

I have to be honest there were a couple of times that I wanted to grab that handgun from the center counsel and fire off a couple of rounds to let people know they were too close and too fast. Luckily I kept that at bay and again no one was harmed in the making of this quit.

After taking her to get the damned tire fixed I decided that it was time for her to get a new car. Her previous car was a Dodge Grand Caravan, if any of you have ever owned one you would know that they are complete Pieces of Shit that would consume a quart of oil a week, and had a lifter knock noise that was a close kin to my Powerstroke Diesel. However, my diesel is big, cool and blows black smoke on command.

I wound up buying her a new car without her even knowing I was doing it. Test drove, haggled, completed paperwork and was home in an hour. Heck they even washed it before I was out of there. I did all of that without the Nic Bitch rearing her head.

The nest part was the "Finance Manager" (anyone ever notice that almost everyone at a Dealership is a "Manager") was talking to me and he happened to open a drawer and I saw a can of Cope. I then watched for the tell tale signs and sure enough he was a Ninja Dipper. I asked him if he ever stopped or had a interest in doing so. He took a while to answer and then said that yes actually he wanted to Quit but so far was unsuccessful. I guided him to here and I hope to see him soon. Then I also handed him a can of Chooch and a can of Teaza.

By no means do I consider myself an ambassador of quietness but it sure as hell makes me feel better about my quit when I can guide others future quitters. This Forum has been a gift to me and I want to let other know.

Well I better make this entry end because we are headed out for a 4 day weekend at the lake today. I get to take the kids out skiing and this time enjoy it without wondering if I spit from the boat will it wind up in their eyes.

This should be a great trip.

Semper Fi,

Aaaand... that's how a quit grows and remains solid. Nice job brother! Quit with you any day...
