Day 82

The days sure do fly by. Last time I posted in here was 8 day ago at Day 74. I know, some are probably thinking, "Ag, please, you're a fucking post whore" - HA...well yes, I am, I kinda enjoy being addicted to posting on KTC...besides, it is quite therapeutic and I feel that it has actually helped me transition that much easier from a Grizzly-can-a-day little whore to a hardcore motivated quitter. And I AM fucking motivated about it - at this point I just cannot believe I was such a bitch to it. I'm disgusted with the "old me" and guaran-motherfucking-tee I ain't going back.

...Anyway...I know that time is your friend when it comes to battling this addiction and those with many more days are beating it on a level beyond me but I, too, feel that I am so done.

If any newbies read this, understand this that it gets better and I notice it every step of the way. Day 74 was so much better than day 50. Now at day 82, it is so much better than day 74. In fact, on day 80 I realized at the end of the day that I didn't even have a craving! It was a day spent with my son at a college football game and then a few hours on the road home, the whole time talking and just having a real good time - point is, I was kept busy and it just didn't cross my mind.

I know at this relatively early point that these "crave-less" days are an anomaly (even had a little bitty bullshit crave already this morning) but they are proof positive that my mind is conditioning to be "dip-less".

I love Mondays and love being QUIT on Day 82! Yeah, I'm gonna kick nic's ass today, just like yesterday. 'tough'
Keep up the good work man!

Those fairly new to KTC --

Some advice. Call me a post whore but I find it extremely therapeutic to sometimes jot your thoughts down in your Intro thread. Hell, it's your thread so use it. I just went back and read thru my entire thread (all 10 pages in my short 74 days) - it was time well spent. While I feel my quit is very strong, I still find it therapeutic to go back and remind myself of the struggles along the way and also see how my reports progressively reflected a quitter winning the battle. The only disturbing thing is coming across folks who commented to give me support who have not been active for several weeks - I wondered where they are and why they have left. I hope they are still quit.

Anyway, IF someone reads this other than me, just my thoughts on the significance of using all of the tools here, including your own Intro page.

73 Days of Freedom

Wow, can't hard believe it when I look at that number.  What a difference 73 days can make in so many aspects of my life.  It's an early and glorious Saturday morning - posting up roll like any other day.  The difference between this Saturday and a Saturday 74 days ago is that I went to bed at a decent hour like a normal person as opposed to staying up to get in some ninja dipping after the wife went to bed.  I can remember times being exhausted and in bed falling asleep watching television but I'd get up so that I could dip for a couple of hours - how insane is that????  I'd tell my wife I had work I needed to do. 

Loving my newfound freedom.  While nicotine thoughts still creep into my mind throughout the day, I know I am stronger than it...standing above the beast with my foot on its chest - I'm done.  The boats are incinerated.
Freedom is the shit. :D
Life is quite different sans the shackles of nicotine.

I wake up like any ol' morning and make the beeline straight up the stairs from my bedroom to my office to wipe my eyes and sit behind the computer and post roll. I type in the 66 days and just am taken back.....SHIT, how did I do that???  I know I have a long road ahead but I'm winning....because of KTC and all YOU guys and gals.  Damn, 67 days ago I literally couldn't quit for more than a few hours, never for an entire day.

Anyway, I guess just some 2/3 way to the Hall time of reflection.  Wow.  Just freaking wow.  The kind of life-changing wow shit.  I can hear Joe Biden whispering in my ear, "this is a big fucking deal."
You did it one day at a time brother.

Nice work AG.
Thank you - I feel pretty damn good about it.
Now if your football team was as strong as your quit you'd be golden.
Damn right, you did it one day, sometimes one hour, at a time. Proud to be quit with you today Ag.
Well done Ag. Unlike your football team, you rule. Quit with you today, as well as everyday.
Most people can't quit for one day, let alone 67.

That makes you a Bad Ass!

I'm Damn Proud of You!!!!
Thanks for quitting with me for 67 days. You are a bad ass quitter.
That's the kind of shit right there that makes this place kick ass - all the support. Just logged in after a long day away from the computer and saw all these comments. Thanks guys, much appreciated. I know you all have my back and know that I have YOUR back as well.
Aglawyer...Joe Biden also said you are now like our Prez...nice and "Clean"
Ha! Thanks.

By the way, in case someone didn't know that Biden quote...remember when Obama had that press conference for the dumb healthcare reform plan and he whispered in his ear, "this is a big fucking deal" and it was caught on tape.
