While this is a great achievement to reach, I have always questioned numbers that show how many people are members.

The real number would be how many of the 10K are really posting and interacting every day. ;)
10.006!!!! 'oh yeah'

Quote from: PaulRegali
Thinking about quitting the Grizz tonight. I've chewed since I was in the 7th grade and I'm 39 yrs old now. I chew about a can every 4-5 days. I justify my chewing by only chewing at night after kids go to bed but last few years I've been falling asleep with a chew in almost nightly. I think it's ok to chew because I only do it at night. How do I get over this hump?
Stop thinking... start quitting. There will NEVER be a "good" time to quit.

You've taken the first step... you're here and you're posting. Start reading. Here are some my personal favorites:

http://www.killthecan.org/facts/jennykern.asp
http://www.killthecan.org/facts/chewie01.asp
http://www.killthecan.org/facts/thefog.asp
http://www.killthecan.org/facts/100benefits.asp
http://www.killthecan.org/facts/potential.asp

You CAN do this. You're among nearly 10,000 people that actually understand what you're about to go through cause we've all been there.

However, I'll warn you. We don't "try" to quit here... we quit. We don't "hope"... we know.

WHEN you're ready you'll have more support and help than you'll know what to do with.

Decision time.

What good does just one do? If I can't have it all the time then screw it. If I have it all the time then I'm choosing tobacco over my wife and 4 daughters....what asshole would do that??

The love you get here is conditional. The condition is that you are quit.
