WOW! I won two days! And I will win tomorrow!

Work has been tough. I'm behind a computer 75% of the time and to help I kept KTC all day. Looking at it every couple of minutes really helped.

BTW, thanks for all the encouragement! It really does help. I'll be posting day 3 tomorrow.

MB,
Please go to the WELCOME CENTER and read everything, only takes a few minutes. Then arm yourself with gum, mints, jerky whatever you'll be using as a substitute.
Drink LOTS of water. When a crave hits, bang out some pushups, go for a walk...anything. PM guys here and trade numbers to build your support network. READ all over this site, lots to be learned. Don't worry about tomorrow, we're just going todo this one day at a time. Welcome to May!

Thanks All for the welcome. I wish I would have found this site years ago. Maybe I wouldn't be on my first day.

I need to make a correction...I will make it today without the nic! I will see what tomorrow brings.

Dave
Now that's quitter language right there. We win, we use words that win, our actions are those of quitters, we don't give the nic bitch a reach around, we lay it to her.
Glad your with us MB. the only thing I'd like to add is this: if you truly want to quit then you will fully embrace the tools and system here at KTC. Your story is similar (it's almost cliche) to 1000s of others here. So please believe us when we say it works. Read it all and understand it. The path is laid before you. Simply follow it.

I quit with you today.

Dave....

I am on Day 6...just like you I have dipped or chewed for years..all day long.

First couple of days are tough..no lie.

There will be a few times that you may have trouble focusing on doing the simplest task...it will pass.

Drink water until you cant drink anymore...chew 12 pieces of gum if you need too...

Day 6 aint to bad....see you there soon...

Day 1 on the site and you're talking the talk. Finish this day hard so you can say you walked the walk for a day. This is a HUGE accomplishment. Do not for 1 minute undermine the significance of 1 day quit. That 1 day quit for you is as important to the guy who is 1000 days quit. One day at a time brother. And when you get to day 2, and you will get to day 2, I'll quit with you all day long. Lets get in a habit of repeating this cycle. Sounds like a plan to me, hope it sounds like a plan to you.

Welcome Mike Bravo, to KTC, the best damn group of quitters on this planet. Seriously, read all you can. Read the welcome center, the hall of fame speeches, go look at the quit groups and read some of the current intros. Read all you can.

Looks like you posted roll. That is the most important thing. Keep your word, post it and keep it That is all it takes.

Get to know the people in your quit group. Post, send Private messages, get phone numbers and make yourself welcome.

Last thing from me is (and Im going to bust your balls here) Don't do the best you can, there is no going back, there is no failure, you post roll you don't do nicotine. End of story. The rest takes care of itself. Welcome to your freedom from poison, you will always be an addict but you will be a nicotine free addict like the rest of us. It gets easier, I promise.

Welcome to the fucked up family of quit.

My advice: drink in everything you can from this site. The veterans have all kinds of helpful little tidbits that are available to assist you.

Buy in 100%. This site will NOT work if you do not buy in.

Get numbers and frequent the chat rooms; however, your posting roll every day is paramount for your success.

If you need anything PM me.
You may not necessarily need the support, but others most definitely do. Be a shining beacon for others. Blaze the path for them to follow!!!

Hi All,

I found this site by accident and it appears to be what I have been looking for.

I have been using Skoal and Skoal Pouches for 33 years! In 2.5 hours, I will have made it one full day. Something I don't recall doing in the last 33 years.

It is hard, very hard, but I'm going to do my best to make it through tomorrow without tobacco.

Thanks, looking forward to meeting some folks here.

Dave
MB,
I see you posted roll today, great start. Do it again, every damn day.
No nicotine in any form, ever.
Keep updating this thread to remind yourself what the days felt like so you'll NEVER have to go through this again.
Go here index.php?showforum=13 and read it all.
Read some HOF speeches, there are little nuggets of gold sprinkled all over this site, use it to your advantage. PM fellow May guys and build a web of support.
Welcome to May!
