8 days is nothing to brag about but i feel great..last night was the first time i didn't sleep very well but i have so much motivation to do some things that i think it was more of my thoughts racing about that then thinking about dip...then i finally got to sleep it seemed like about an hour my son started crying in the next room...so i was up and adam and rolling this morning...i'm a little tired from not sleeping but big changes are coming boys and girls...i'm quit as fuck for today and it has given me some strength to go after some other things too! Boom...quit on people
Boy I sure could use a beer right about now!

Yeah i have no idea...i was about 21 when i remember it starting and always thought it was a very odd thing and thought  maybe some other fellas would have the same thing...it does confirm that i am a little weird i guess.  oh well!  I've always known that.  but as for today...day 7 i am quit..how do you like them apples?!
maybe you should try eating some 100 dollar drywall to head off the craves that apples give you.
holy shit that was funny...i will say that the dry wall is getting fixed!

So i have a very weird question to anyone who reads this..and i'll start by telling my side of it...i am scared to death to eat an apple...for whatever reason, after i eat an apple i get hit very hard with a physical crave for chew...i have no idea why...back in my full blown chewing days i would eat an apple just for the intense crave that i got...how sick and weird is that?   Anyhow...can someone tell me if i am just a complete weirdo with this apple thing or does anyone else have this issue?

I have an apple in the fridge here are work and i am literally scared to eat it.
that is odd, I eat apples every day and no drama.
yeah it is so strange...its the same thing with pears...i have no idea why...i'm seriously chuckling to myself about the weirdness of this.
My advice... If the apple bothers you -- dump it and move on. No big deal. Maybe 1 day they won't. Same goes for pears.
Odd no doubt. I had an intense crave after eating anything when I was using, and slowly subsided as my quit grew strength. I can't recall any specific foods being more so than others, if I had to guess, its because your mouth is clean after the apple. Eating an apple is close to brushing your teeth. Just a wild guess.
I would rather lose to a cheater than win as a cheater.

odd as hell to me but so what - throw the damn thing away - cut it up and flush it if it's a big dael, don't want to be rooting through the trash for an apple...

Posting in June without getting bumped is like winning buffetts billion $. But so worth the effort! I'll quit with you again today.
