Mike Bravo, Derk is exactly right. There are going to be great days ahead of you followed by some crappy ones. Use the good days as a springboard to get over the bad. Before long the good days will outnumber the bad. I remember me and George Hayduke were texting and he and I laughed because we hadn't thought about dip for an entire day. What a win that was. That was about day 60. so just as Derk says, relax and enjoy your ODAAT. Having a "no crave" day is kinda like getting laid, one day it just surprises you and rewards you for doing the right thing.

After 16 days I feel pretty good, sleep well and can drink a beer again. BUT, the craves are still strong at times! I will not cave, but I would have thought by this time it would have been easier. Day 17 quit one more day.

Brutha... You used Skoal for 33 years. That is a long time and the poison messed with your body in ways you can't imagine. It takes time to heal. You will not be fixed overnight so don't be worried. In time it will get better, but for now, try to relax and just stay quit today. You are on the path!

Thanks all for the support! Day 15 in the books and I will post roll by 7am tomorrow. BTW, I actually drank a full beer last night and the craves were not too bad. Up to this point I only allowed myself a half a beer. So, I'm making progress and winning!

Thanks, SirDerek! I will use your number, and others, if I need it because staying quit is not an option for me.

This is day 13 and I will be quit today! Thanks for all the support!

Lucky number 13! That is a great number. Keep at it today. Work your quit plan and be prepared. Quit with you all day long!
Keep it up. Get more active in your group. They need a little more grassroots support. The bonds you build in your group tend to be the strongest. Being tempered in the same fire tends to build better connections. Barring that you'll always have me if you want. All you have to do is ask.

Hard to believe, but I'm quit 10 days tomorrow! Never thought I could do it...but I will!
Love it. Keep posting and declaring your victories. Get in the face of nicotine and tell her that it's over!

YOU WILL WIN. I GUARANTEE IT: (IF) You make a promise every Today. Yesterday is over and Tomorrow doesn't isn't on the radar. Promise means Posting Roll. 100%

If you are a man of your word. Your word holds more value and is more important than a nicotine fix. If you keep your word today...and repeat.

You Will Win! Only today's match is what matters until you win.

715 days Winning to 0 Caves or losses!

KTC in your corner. Humble obedience to the plan. YOU WILL WIN EVERY TODAY.
