Day 862

Haven't updated in a while. Haven't had a lot to say. 862 days ago my life was a wreck, but I didn't know it. 762 days ago I was exhausted from fighting, but winning. From there, things got progressively better. Then they got great. I don't know how to explain it really, other than life is great when you own it.

This weekend 4 peeps from my April 2013 group flew in from LA, Jackson MI, Detroit, and Ketchikan AK and were joined by another from Wichita for a royals game Saturday night. We tore up Kansas City. Ate 100,000 calories. Slammed go carts into each other. Plowed through our liquor cabinet. Took pictures. Laughed. Had serious conversations. What an amazing experience.

This morning I was barely awake when Todd called to tell me how amazing he feels today on his way to work after round 1 of his winning fight. And how his battle against nicotine was the winning backdrop to his great attitude.

This site is the real deal. It will change your life if you let it. Jump in with both feet. Win at all costs. Life without nicotine is amazing.
862 days ago, did you ever in a thousand years imagine that all that would be possible? That not only you could break free from the chains of nicotine, but also gain that type of friendship and achieve such meaningful bonds along the way. That post is a prime example of why you can't put a price on the ROI one gets from quitting nicotine. Truly inspiring...and at the end of all that, it couldn't happen to a better guy.
Good shiz, right there.
Quit wood all damn day.
Real post, from a real quitter.
Keeping my jaw and tongue...I like them.

I'll I completely agree with Dagranger - Congrats on the 8th floor Michael.
Summed up nicely ... Congrats bro, thanks for being there for ALL of us! 'clap'
Man, you are one of my true quit brothers! Proud to hang with you every day. Congrats on these last 800 days of hard won freedom!
Congrats to an all around great guy who truly embodies the KTC values every day.
The best of the best right here! You have led a bunch of us to freedom Michael. Congrats Bro. And thank you!
He is like the KTC Jock Strap, keeping so many dicks on here quit it is not funny.

Thanks Michael for being a pillar of support.

Congrats on 2 years. I've seen you posting in new quitters threads. And as a new guy I appreciate vets like you. I can't imagine yet what freedom you feel today, but with people like you leading the way, I will. Thank you!
