Lets see

1. Freedom
2. Your word is worth something to you
3. Your not a lying ass dog
4. Fucking your life is worth fighting through the suck
5. You are almost through day 3 .
6. Day 4 starts tomorrow and everyday it gets easier
7. If you cave you got to start all over again. (Bitch)
8. You saved money already in just these 3 days
9. You arent paying UST to give you cancer
10. Read the Jenny and Tom Kern Story
And those were just off the top of my head in about 30 seconds.....

You want more Pm me and I will give you a whole bunch more

Ohhhhh andif you want to continue to be a slave to the Nicbitch and you want to shove your face full of cancer and sooner or later have half your jaw removed you dont need reasons to stay quit

Why did you quit in the first place? That was probably a pretty good reason for quitting. One second, one minute, one hour, one day at a time....you got this!

Because you're winning. Freedom is scary and painful because we addicts don't know what to do with it.

Remember that old guy from Shawshank who hangs himself because he hates freedom? He just didn't give himself time to adjust. Human beings are the most adaptive animal in the forest but it still takes time to adjust.

Don't give up!

Because you signed roll and gave me your word that you wouldn't use today. Same as shaking my hand and looking me in the eye. You aren't a lying ass dog, right?

Good to have you here Wrangler. Congratulations on posting roll this morning. Some people just can't seem to get that concept. Posting roll is the foundation of this site and your quit. You are a man of your word right?

Give you word every morning and make it till bed time. Do that over and over for the rest of you life.

Welcome aboard Wrangler. This is the place to be. I'll also reiterate the importance of posting roll. And before the vets start with the pink vs. salmon vs. dirty sanchez color talk...check out the 'Welcome Center' in the upper left. I'm not sure where I found this but this is a step by step for the galactically stupid on how to post roll.

How to post roll

Welcome to the quit bro.

Hit it hard brother, we've all been where you are right now. I've even previously told my dentist and hygienist that I was quit...and then always caved. But, that was all before I found this site. This pace is GREAT, tons of help here and it has made my quit much stronger. The light bulb finally went on after reading a bunch of posts and HOF speeches here: the nic bitch is STRONG, much stronger than I ever considered before, and nicotine invades EVERY facet of your life whether you want it to or not. And that's a little sad. So I will quit again today with you, welcome to September 2011!

Welcome Wrangler. Great to see you are so excited this early in the quit. But still approach it one day at a time. Post with your group and focus on not using today. Then if the dolldrums of the quit hit you can maintain the same pattern of behavior no problems.

Welcome, Wrangler. Man, I love your excitement. The "call up all the friends" was a nice touch. Sayra's right, posting roll is the single most important thing we do here. That one promise today to a bunch of (for right now) strangers somehow makes it work. You'll eventually get to know these folks like brothers and sisters, and they will be your lifeline. Let me know if I can help you anyway.

Congrats on making it through your first day. Go on over to September and post roll. Do it everyday. It may seem like a small task, but it's a super important task to everyone here. If you need any help, you have tons of people here... myself included. Stay QUIT!

Today was day 1 for me and I made it!!! I found this website last night and joined because I've been ready to quit since the first year I started but have failed everytime due to lack of accountability. I've chewed for 18 years Copenhagen. Over the last 5 years I have only chewed when I got home from work so I had really cut back but during my rodeo years it was a can a day.
THAT BEING SAID...I was so excited about this website I had a hard time going to sleep last night thinking about the reality of truly quitting and having help to do it. When I got up today I called all my dipping buddies and told them about it and advised them today was my quit day. I had a dentist appointment today and also told my dentist about. In my opinion this is the best thing since sliced bread. A group of fellow addicts all pulling for each along with the support long time quitters. I'm still pretty excited to find this website. Glad to be here boys (and girls).

It's all up to you wrangler. No luck involved in this place. Post roll every morning and keep your word for the day. Don't start thinking about future days, events, etc..Just get through this hour of this day. Everything gets better each and every day you beat the nic bitch.
