Days 27-28 and start of 29 (8.12.13)
Spent Friday night and Saturday morning cabin camping with a bunch of Boy Scouts.  This was a really cool reenactment cabin/fort for a Lewis  Clark exploration outpost.  This meant wood beds (yes wood frame bunk beds with solid wood slats then a straw mat) and the cabins were period with logs and grout walls.  That part of the experience was great.

The suck...the other 4 adult leaders were all Nicotine addicts.  The group was composed of 4 former military and only one smoker.  Evening one was fine; no urges and I even preached why they should quit and pointed out what kind of example they were setting.  Saturday morning however was the shittiest day of my quit.  Thank God that I posted up my Quit plan on Friday though because it reminded me constantly.

Saturday I get up in a dark cabin lit by one candle...mill around trying to find my shoes so I can sneak off to the latrine.  searching with weary eyes and no light I stumbled across a can of Kodiak, no biggie move to another area...then I find a can of Copenhagen Long Cut; damn did my brain become weak...Just one pinch my mind wondered.

I immediately put it back, found my shoes.  Hit the latrine and then my truck.  Thank goodness I had put my gym bag in there because I was going to train outside with some new USMC Recruits later on Saturday.  I changed into my shorts and t-shirt, laced up my shoes and ran.  It was 0345 and I ran for 2 miles then completed 50 push ups, then ran a little over a mile and found a playground where I did 50 pull-ups.  I finally redirected my run back to camp.

When I returned non of the adult leaders were yet awake.  So I quietly snuck into the cabin grabbed my rucksack and headed for the solar shower.  I felt good knowing that I QUIT.  However, I felt like shit because my mind almost let me and all of you down.  Returning from my shower I decided to help my fellow scouters.

I took some post-it notes from my truck and wrote I quit with you in all caps on the notes and signed them.  Then I found every can I could; wrapped electrical tape around the sides and posted the note on top.

I believe that one of them is now on his route to quitting because he smiled and threw his worm dirt in the trash.  One of the boys form the group hearing about my early morning escapade has started discussions with me about his Eagle project.  He wants to start a program for people quitting a Nicotine addiction.  If nothing else perhaps that will make more people want to QUIT for themselves.

None the less this is day 29, I am still quit and now more pissed because I myself (the hardass as I have been referred to) almost succumbed in a moment of weakness.  I QUIT WITH ALL OF YOU and I promise to start QUIT today.

That is a great post and an AWESOME WIN!! That is a perfect example of taking all of that new found energy and time and putting it into something good! There is nothing better than seeing a person you care about find their quit! Good stuff!!

My quit is stronger today because of your post!!

I quit with you!!

J
Fuckin EH!!! is all I can say. That is some hardcore next level kungfu voodoo quit action going on right there...

Quit with you all day every day!!

-Brink
Well done Pinched.

At 3:45 I wake to use the latrine as well but I have never gone on a run like that...HA. I usually just pass back out.

Great job as I know for 3+ years as a leader in the troop each week I had to repeat those words "A scout is.....Clean..." And I am so glad it finally got to me and that I found this site to make that come true.

I quit with you today (left hand shake).
Good job Pinched. Do not be dissapointed that you still have craves, you will have them for some time. But they will get less frequent and easier to deal with...
Gotta love BSA. I know when I was a troop leader every adult involved seemed to be a smokeless addict. Glad you helped them see the possibility of a quit...
Now that is conducive to a DUCK FIP'S Calling!!! 'Cheers' QUACK!QUACK!

DUCK FIP'S FOR LIFE!!
'KICKIN THE CAN' All Day Long!
Complancency sucks,one moment of it is the difference between being a user and a quitter....OIB

Someone, somewhere out there is suffering through a more intense crave than me and that person is staying quit. As will I. -JoeMellow

The connection of a common problem is strong, but the connection of a common solution is even stronger.-gorilla1

When we think we can't quit... We can... Cause ducks fly together... When the craves are to much to handle... Us ducks fly together.... When you want to cave... You won't... Because ducks fly together. Per our Jpete328
Freedom Started 06/26/2013....Freedom continues because of my choice and accountability from MY FELLOW DUCKS! QUACK ! QUACK! Thank You!

Day 26 - 8/9/13
I have many new reasons to be INSPIRED to quit today. First a Vet offers to send me my first HOF Coin is I nail my quit. Second a fellow Marine kept me from completing losing my cool in chat. Without both of you I guarantee that someone would have been injured in the making of this quit. Then of the evening another Vet showed me their true colors and gained more respect from me; to that vet we will always have "the feet". Other Vets send me that daily text to make me smile and remind me that I promised them.

Duck Fips I apologize if I got pissy today; but I am tired of the stoppers and the cavers. Post your roll, be accountable and take your shit serious because it is your life not mine. But if you don't give a damn stay away from my quit train before it comes down the tracks.

To everyone here at KTC, I do in fact owe all of you my life that you have given me back. Sure I am ready and will lead but I will need the shoring form you all at any given moment.

To all you Newbies..well when a hand reaches out to you take it you will need it. Take your quit seriously and ODAAT. No one here can make you QUIT nor can they make you want to. Just please understand that when you post roll you promise to yourself and you promise to everyone here. Be a man or woman of your word; because you never know who here you may meet in real life. Now keep your promise; put your big boy/girl pants on and be the boss of your life. If you ever feel that your voice is not loud enough call me I will be happy to help.

Until tomorrow, be strong and kick the shit out of your quit today,

Day 25 - 8/8/13

Last night I had an epiphany...I started dipping at the age of 12 stopped at 36; yesterday was day 24 and I was a Dippin Deet Dee Dee for 24 years.  Math is a funny thing; I suck at it but yet find it funny how numbers can work out like that.

Anyway on to my quit...I cam to the realization that Nicotine cessation is a lot like sex.  When I contemplated quitting I was nervous.  The first couple of days I was awkward and clumsy.  Technique builds with practice, confidence starts to come in...sure there are days where I wish it went better; I could have done this or that, I should try this, or my favorite THAT WAS FAST.

Then there are also the days were I can lay down at night and smile thinking DAMN I NAILED THAT.  However, much like sex I can practice as much as I want but until I truly own it and commit 100% it won't be GREAT.  I plan on perfecting my quit foreplay, refining technique and NAILING it better today.
Just dont one pump chump your quit... 'boob'
I'm pretty sure that I've never had a sexual encounter during which I didn't "truly own it and commit 100%". I've been known to half-ass a few things during my day, but never that.

But, I do agree that it must be NAILED today. I don't hear any screaming yet......
Well Rad I can honestly I have had some encounters I didn't give 100%; I bet those ladies would second that as well.

KK no sorry I am not counting pumps; unless I am talking about a shotgun and have to pay per shell.

Day 25 - 8/8/13

Last night I had an epiphany...I started dipping at the age of 12 stopped at 36; yesterday was day 24 and I was a Dippin Deet Dee Dee for 24 years. Math is a funny thing; I suck at it but yet find it funny how numbers can work out like that.

Anyway on to my quit...I cam to the realization that Nicotine cessation is a lot like sex. When I contemplated quitting I was nervous. The first couple of days I was awkward and clumsy. Technique builds with practice, confidence starts to come in...sure there are days where I wish it went better; I could have done this or that, I should try this, or my favorite THAT WAS FAST.

Then there are also the days were I can lay down at night and smile thinking DAMN I NAILED THAT. However, much like sex I can practice as much as I want but until I truly own it and commit 100% it won't be GREAT. I plan on perfecting my quit foreplay, refining technique and NAILING it better today.
Just dont one pump chump your quit... 'boob'

All newbies, please take note of something for me.  If you look through my intro you will notice that there is a lapse of 16-17 days here.  I was a noob simply trying to fight my quit.  I was watching the KTC Kool-Aide get manufactured but I was really drinking a full glass yet.  I was simply taking a daily taste by posting roll then logging off and hoping that that day would be better.

It finally took some time for me to meet some people on here that helped force me out of my shell and make me own my QUIT!  I am proud to say that right now I am in control of myself...so far.  ONE DAY AT A TIME, now I really know what that means.

I learned to post roll, then add my daily diary on here to serve myself and hopefully help some other drink a full glass or mix it up with their whole arm.

If I would not have come here I would have been like the creep rom Silence of the Lambs with my wang between my legs looking for my next dip.  Sure I thought at first these people are assholes.  Then again that is the same thing I though when I started basic training too.

I have the luxury of growing as a Marine and even better yet surviving something that not many can say they have done.  So do I own my QUIT; not yet but I am trying like hell to.

So all of you newbies please listen and be open to new things these people really can help you be the QUITTER you want to be.  You just have to get your wang out from between your legs and want to QUIT.

If I offend anyone, sorry but I know no other way than Blunt Facts.  If you ever want or have a desire to learn more about me or if I can help please PM me.  I owe a good many people from here my life and the list grows every damned day.  I am not a professional quitter but I am a real stubborn SOB with a will to quit and a bad attitude towards addictions.

Sincerely (yes I mean that),

  • Interests: I was addicted to nicotine for about 19 years before I actually realized that I was an addict to a drug. Allen Carr helped open my eyes with LionHeartedGirl (my sister). I am currently on day 2 and because of the frame of mind and different point of view that "The Easy Way" has given me, I don't doubt for one moment that I have ingested the last bit of that weed for the rest of my life. I am 35 now and am setting a goal of living long enough to have saved $100,000 because of my quit. At the same time, I am setting the goal of not smoking TODAY! One step at a time, while keeping my eyes on the horizon.

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,

Pinched
Great attitude! That's all I can say about this!
Goose bumps!! That anger will fuel your quit. Love your attitude. Quit with u today Marine!!!
Holy crap, I read this intro because I wanted to get an idea what it sounds like after a few weeks of quit. The bad news.... You don't seem to have changed that much over the weeks. The good news, thats because you have been a kick ass quitter from the beginning!
Inspired by and quitting with you.
