Well done boys! The more of those hurdles you get over, the easier they will become to face. Keep fighting!

I was worried about the duck hunting as well. But the more time I put in, the more proud of myself I will be when the season starts and I am confident that pride will overcome the urge.

I was in the car today for about three hours, passed lots of old gas stations where I used to stop and buy Kodiak. Even stopped at one to get a drink and gas. Still holding strong.

Yep. Gonna have to not touch any of it. Gonna have to learn a new way to duck hunt this year too.

Now don't jump all over me, Im just asking. The question, after quitting, have you ever slipped up with nicotine such as a cigar or even a cigarette? Did that derail your quit completely? I'm gonna have to be real careful around that because even when I was dipping, I craved the smokes while I was drinking a few beers.

I'm sure I can't let that slip in. I don't doubt that will bring back the nicotine urges again. Hell, I'm only 5 days in, so I'm just now getting some relief from the strong physical withdrawal. I just know I have a "Guys" weekend coming up in two weeks, and I need to be able to turn down the smokes and cigars, even after a beer.

This should answer your question...

Those weekends can be tough. Make sure you've got your plan in place.

At day 158 I've been contemplating some experiences on KTC. My experience of quitting dip is only a portion of my time here. I have met some wonderful people, enjoyed some great times dealing with addiction, I've learned so much about myself, I've started pulling out of my secret life. Some of the non-nic forums have helped me face other issues which needed to be addressed along with quitting dip. This is a life altering experience!
Thank you!!

This... Is... AWESOME! Reminds me why this place is just so important to me!

[sethj13]

I quit today like i said I would, and it hasn't been easy. I'll be back in the morning to pledge to do the same tomorrow. I'm confident that I'll be as successful tomorrow as I was today. I'm in it to win it.

Why is it that when I attempt to change my avatar it remains the same? It's pissing me off. I am using the browse option and simply selecting JPEGs off my computer. None of em work. I'm not an idiot.....I don't think I am anyway...

Someone help me out. Crockett - you around? You change yours daily it seems.

Working now.....whatever

Your computer has your old one cached. Hit the refresh button and it will go find the new one. I had that problem a couple times.

Good morning.  Today is my Day 900.  No shit.  According to the savings calculator, I've managed to NOT spend a total of $9,274.50 on Copenhagen.

If you're a new guy reading this, please know, that I am no different than you.  You can do this.

Never again.

For any reason.

Good stuff Nolaq.

New guys should also know that Nolaq does not go anywhere to be made sport of.

Tru Dat.

That's cool. You don't have to go anywhere. I can come to you if you're that lazy about it.

Well done!!!

That should definately pay for a new fancy smancy two sided brochure printer.


and a vacation.

'Finger' Nic whore! I kick you in thr foofie once again!
