I'm no stud...just a guy. I'll be a stud when i have what loot and all you's got as far as days quit. i still crave, some days it feels like the first few, but i've had to be inventive in my strategies to kill any craves...i've eaten a bag of mints in a day, chew seeds, mow, walk, have beers whatever works...as i said, i wasn't really craving much when i bought the jerky...and loot, that was funny about pizza and to be completely honestly weird...sometimes when i'm eating i'll stuff whatever in my old pocket of my mouth that i used to put the shit (i know, very weird). But anyhow...thanks for the concern...didn't mean to get huffy...you guys are good people but like j said...it is my quit and i will do what i have to do to not put any real chew in my mouth today...just like i will tomorrow.

As i have been somewhat of a proponent of not using the fake i will preface this by stating i still don't want to use that...specifically because i would get the same flavor as i used for the real stuff.

But if we are getting technical here on the oral fixation, isn't that what using regular or sugarless gum is? Isn't putting a big ole wad of seeds in your mouth replacing chaw?

These things including jerky chew were given to me as tools in my quit tool box. now i can't use them? I never ran into a teriyaki flavored dip before. I'm just a little confused at the moment. I will keep my little silly NON dip ventures to myself from now on.
All Loot and the boys are saying is this......

There are multiple parts to your addiction. Obviously there is the actual addiction to Nicotine which we all know lasts 3-4 days depending on your personal make up etc etc...... Then there is the oral fixation of stuffing that stuff into your pothole which is the second phase. Typically using the fake to get through the fogg and first couple of weeks is a good way to beat off the bad craves and allow you to concentrate on one thing.....NOT CHEWING! Once you are good there then its time to work on beating the oral part. I used fake for 60 days or so. Their point is and I agree with them.....If you have made it this far with out using anything why start now? Jerkey, fake, whatever it is......

You are a stud quitter. We are just offering up some advice. Your Quit is YOUR Quit!!


Stay Strong Brother!!

You eat pizza...you ever stuff it in your lip? For hours? The list goes on.

Again...do what you gotta do to keep the real stuff outta your face. For LOOT, letting anything sit in his lip like a dip, is a one way ticket to hell. LOOT knows LOOT too well. Knows exactly where that goes. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow. But it would eventually stuffing a lip full of anything would just start the process.

Don't get all huffy. We's just trying to get you to think ahead. See both sides of it.

Won't bust in on your node again bro. No worries.

So i just went and bought some jerky chew...wasn't overly craving anything but i saw it and thought what the hell...could help on bad days...packed a fat lip full of fucking teriyaki jerky chew...i am laughing at myself right now...not bad really!  I used to eat this stuff when i was a kid to look cool, now i wish i would have just kept doing that instead of the real thing..seriously, not anything in your lip for 69 days and putting something in there feels very strange...quit on ya'll
If you've done without it for 69 days, why would you start? Kick that oral fixation bro. It is harder than the chemical addiction. Don't go down that road because you are likely to start the whole justification process.

"I already spend money on fakie, may as well buy real".

"I stuff my lip with fakie, mays well stuff it with real"

"I carry a tin in my pocket, may as well get real"

That may not be you...but it is sure how LOOT's mind works. Once that justification ball starts rolling, you will fail.

Now...if you need it to break a crave...that's one thing (although seeds would be better). However, if you are packing your lip just for fun, you are opening yourself up to a world of pain bro. Think about it.
Ya, I am new to this game, and it may seem fun and silly to pack your lip again, but really, whether it is intended or not, you are flirting with the nicbitch. It is one thing to use the fake during the first stages of a quit (I am still stuffing seeds) but I am afraid you are going to wake the bitch up. Best not to flirt with girls you ain't tryin' to take home.
Listen to Loot. Loot knows these things.
protect your quit.
