Things are getting pretty clear. I am loving my quit more and more everyday.
I still have cravings and am not letting my guard down. I just know know what I have been missing and will not trade it for some poison in a can.  If I start to get a craving, now it just pisses me off!!!
It is an invador to my family, my sanity, my money. That thief and liar will get nothing short of an ass whoopin from me.
Welcome to my quit!!!
BAM!! I like it!
that is the attitude to build.

yes you are not only winning, but you are also gaining something more valuable and that is the education for how to beat this day after day.

keep on learning, keep on quitting

and always on guard....I quit right beside you.

Horseman, I'm going to have to comment again. I apologize if I'm crowding or taking up space.

YOU, dude, YOU got this. Only you can now let yourself down. You have so many wins in your pocket over the bitch that all it takes now is a deep breath and one day at a time.

I will say that the first 20 days or so (especially the first 10) went by really slow. Then, the single digits kept clicking away and now I'm at 70 and I don't even remember 60. I have made some damn good friends (you know who you are) and I plan on making a lot more here at KTC. You're strong, committed, and you don't take prisoners. Stick around, you will be a hero to many that come after you. I will stand beside you all the way.

Listen to these guys Horsey. We've been where you are and are better men for having blasted through it. Never again for any reason. Sounds like you're buying into that motto and use it to fuel and own your quit every day.

Proud to be quit with you today bro. PM if you need anything.

Today I choose to quit because today is the only day I have control over today. Tomorrow is a new day and when tomorrow is today, I'll control it too, but not until then. I will win this fight with today...

Man, one heck of a tuff day today. Lots of things triggered some tuff cravings.
I think that if I had the shit in front of me I might have caved a couple of times today.
I cannot believe that this crap has such a hold on me. It makes me ashamed ofbeing such a weak and pathetic man.
This crap has had me by the balls and blind for so long. It makes me fighting mad!!!
I see why quitting everyday and posting is so important. Nic is deceptive and can talk you back into a relationship.
Well I say Phuck You, you crazy bitch.
Man I want these cravings to quit.
Horseman nice job grinding it out. Tough day here too. Took me by surprise because yesterday (day 5) was all rosy and relatively easy compared to "the big suck" of days 1~4. Today day 6 was like I re-entered the suck. not quite as heavy but still distracted at work with no sustained ability to concentrate. Snapped at a couple of people when I should have held my tongue. Fuh-uck the suck that we're swimming in. But I will keep my quit. There's too much riding on it.
Go Zillah, I thought things were lightening up a bit for me too. Got kinda cocky from doing so well on New Years.
I am glad I only have to quit today!! LOL
Way to battle yesterday my friend! Nicotine is a highly addictive substance  it owned all of us. You are not alone. I like to see that anger! Let that anger fuel your quit today.

I too hate the fact that I was a slave for 25 years to a weed. I hate the fact that I padded the pockets of Big T for so many years! What a waste!

Dude... You are not weak and pathetic! You are a bad man!. You are here... and you are QUIT! Do not give in to the nic B! Fight today! I am quit with you all day long!
Doing great horseman. I think I was about 3 or 4 days quit when everything got real for me. I don't know why,, the first 3 were easy to me. Maybe it was because it was new and the decision that I had made was exciting.

I remember sitting on the sofa talking with the wife while on ktc. I remember telling her that I didn't know how I was going to get through it. I knew this,, I was not going to put the poison in my pie hole and I didn't care how bad things got. I made it through that night using my wife, ktc and my word. Now i'm 323 days quit and couldn't be happier.

I can't tell you when my last serious crave was. I can't tell you that I never have craves but I can tell you they are few and far between. When they do come it's so easy to push them aside with a smile.

It's worth it horseman,, stay the course. Keep your head pointed forward and make your way to the door. Nothing back there but a can of the filthy disgusting poison. Glad to be quit with you.

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.

New Years day, just over one week quit. Starting to like the feeling of being quit and my breath not smelling like ass.
Went to a wedding last night, there were a lot of triggers there. I stopped a couple times and visited the KTC website. Big help!!!
Posted late today cause my phone died and was missed by a fellow quitter.
I know that I quit WITH my quit brothers.
Looking forward to posting in the morning.
Great job surviving the triggers at a wedding. Tough as nails you are.
