Wow, just tried Smokey Mountain Wintergreen for the first time and it was nice to feel the pull on my gumline again while not feeling guilty about nicotine! It was a pleasant surprise.

Having grown up on the farm and tasted fresh corn though, it was obvious that corn silks was a major ingredient - bleh!

All in all - I recommend it for short term getting by!
Day 2 of Smokey Mountain. It tastes shitty enough that I didn't want it first thing this morning. Went to a gun show and had a dip (of Shitty Mountain) when I got home.

Feeling good with no nicotine but struggling with cravings for the kick! 'drool'

Day 17!  I am surviving but still having episodes of REALLY wanting a dip!  I have determined that alcohol is not a good way to dampen craves.  I had stopped drinking for a long time but have had two nights drinking since I quit skoal.  It's almost like I'm telling myself "I gots to have some vice in my life!"

WHY?!  'Crazy'

Put another day together and move forward!
Apogee...
Days 16~18 form were also a mind mess for me too. Almost back to the foggy " suck "levels of Days 2~4. Don't know what's up with that, but I came out of that latent funk okay a couple days ago. This nic bitch will come after you just when you think things are going good. Hang tough. I quit with you.

Replacing one vice with another is the story of my life. Once I pulled my head out of my arse, I decided my vice would now be life. Without life there are no vices.. exercise will help your fogs/craves.. be sure to keep moving, and it will make you stronger in body  most importantly the mind.. peace

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...

TWO WEEKS! Feels good to achieve it! Things are less stressfull but still having crave episodes. They come when I would have ALWAYS had a dip like driving home from work, after dinner and going in the bathroom!

I just fight through and get to the other side!

No more nicotine! cowboy
Nice work Apo. Two weeks is a big accomplishment. Enjoy it and keep sticking it to the NB ODAAT.
