My March bro Rdad hit the hall Sunday.  I was typing out a short "congrats" text to him and I did something very out of character.  I stopped typing and dialed the phone.  He picked up and we spoke for about 20 minutes or so.  92 days and this was the first verbal contact I have made with anyone from KTC.

When I signed up on KTC I thought it was pretty weird to give my phone number out to strangers.  The thought of calling one of these dudes and actually having a conversation was a completely ridiculous concept.

I've learned that it is not ridiculous.  We shot the shit, had a few laughs, and it was cool. 

No way I'm going to let that dude down

I think the common thread for most of the Iron Men is that we are more physically similar to the Pillsbury Dough Boy these days....

Going into this, I embraced the fact that I was going to get fat.  As if I was knocked up.  Put whatever I wanted into my ever growing pie hole as long as it wasn't dip......  I was a rock star at it.

We gained the weight together  no doubt we'll lose the weight  stay quit together.

Pro and Pbrain and all other Fat Iron Men,
Now that we are all gonna be rolling into our HOF house I am totally down with working on getting in shape with you guys while we keep quitting together. I joined the quit fast food group and the alcohol slow down. If we can quit dipping we can certainly get in shape. I guarantee I am the worst out of all of you. Quitting dip has certainly given me the confidence that we can do anything we want now! ;Ironman:
Im also in the alcohol slow down and the fast food quit. Where is the quit being a lazy fuck and start exercising thread? Thats what i need. Lol ;Ironman:
I like reading this thread as it describes me as well! I have swelled up with all the eating of pizza and for some reason I am eating sweets and never have before. I'm going to join my March Ironmen with getting my act together. ;Ironman:
all right then Ironmen.....and any of you other fat fuck quitters out there.

Its on.

Im already day 9 rolling with the booze slow down group.

I will be rolling with no soda and no fast food groups starting today.


Like Rdad said...if you can quit nic you can do anything. Come join me.

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

a word of advice to you new quitters.

Keep the shit out of your mouth no matter what...but watch your weight!

Im 87 days quit but Jesus I have packed on the weight.

Its easier to lose lbs than cancer but If you if you can avoid the weight gain all the better.

My two cents

PB
Great job on 87 days. You done what you needed to do to get you here. Now you can start working on the weight. It's all a process. You still have no idea where this is heading. The new you is still in the works.

I'm bringing this bad ass  ;Ironman:  to the top of intros, he is 80 days quit today with 100% posting in roll call, He keeps me along with others accountable, not only by internet but by phone.  I'm not going to get to in depth here, He is a cool cat, enough said.

Winter Green
Agreed Winter Green! Pbrain has been a big part of my quit! He is here for one thing.
Count me in this fan club too. PBrain has done it right, and is on the path to freedom--- for himself and others. Considering quitting? Check out this guy's approach!

Now, back to following Winter Green around so i can look at his avatar....
This info helped me early on, and still does today: https://whyquit.com/whyquit/linksaaddiction.html

Quitters I’ve met so far: Ihatecope, >Pinched<, T-Cell, grizzlyhasclaws, Canvasback, BaseballPlayer, Cbird65, ERDVM, BradleyGuy, Ted, Zeno, AppleJack, Bronc, Knockout, MookieBlaylock, Rdad, 2mch2lv4, MN_Ben, Natro, Lippizaner, Amquash, ChristopherJ, GDubya, SRohde  -- always eager to meet more!

Thank you. This means a lot.

But just so you know you two have helped me more than I helped you. I thank you for that and all my quit bros for helping me save my life.

A note to all you lurkers and newbie quitters....This works. If you want to save your life drink this kool-aid, post your promise every day, take it one day at a time. The sense of accomplishment and freedom will outweigh the fog/suck 10 fold. I promise.

Quit with you
