Claws, that was very well said, I read that but didn't know what to say.

Chris, Claws is right. it is worth your time to post. If that is all you can do, just do it. We expect nothing else. Brother, we need your help. 'Don't give up.

I know you guys get frustrated when you have to talk someone down off the ledge.

I just want to say thank you for taking the time to insult, motivate, and hold me accountable.

Unfortunately I can not give the commitment that I did the first 57 days, because of the cyclical nature of my work schedule. But I can keep my word and keep the spirit of why i joined this site and this community.

I will quit every day (and post roll) with all of the KTC community as well as my March bros.

Thank you all
Good call brother. At minimum, get your name on that roll. That's all you have to do. When you have time, or when you need additional therapy, then utilize KTC to help others. This place is a life saver.

Having trouble staying motivated to post roll. Haven't craved in awhile, when I do they aren't strong. I even put down the fake stuff a few weeks back.

I don't want to take an action that will make it less likely that I am successfully quit, but at the same time it is hard during this time of year to sit down at the PC once a day.
You always found time to finger-bang a can of death and cram the shit in your face, all day every day for years... Posting roll takes less time than searching for change to buy that last can of poison before payday... You start thinking you got this quitting thing mastered and don't need to keep doing what has gotten you this far, then you need a punch in the junk. It is the nic addict part of your mind looking for a crack in your defenses that makes you type stupid addict speak shit like: "it is hard during this time of year to sit down at the PC once a day". Others already told you what to do to stay motivated: get involved here, get addicted to KTC! You need to own your quit, and you need to work it.
KTC is quit insurance with a $0 premium. It's an unwise decision to let a gravy policy like this lapse. Don't mess with your life, we're talking a 20 year difference in longevity. Don't fuck around. You've come too far brother.

Another Iron Man here. Today you are 57 days into your quit, and the way I see it you should be 57 times more motivated to post roll than you were on day 1. Simply put (and these aren't my words), you get out of KTC what you put into it. You want my help, March Iron Men's help, KTC community's help should you feel like a crave, then give us your word and we'll give you ours.

Notice the Iron brethren jumping on this thread like white on rice. This feels like a crisis to us and we're going to pull you back in whether you like it or not. You've been a stud quitter, one who has put in the effort. You've helped maintain our spreadsheet. More people admire you for what you have done for 57 days and appreciate your presence in this group than you realize. Stay quit with us brother, and stay quit by giving us your word that you are with us. I quit with you LFEDD.
Damn Steakbomb hit it right on the head. Nice post ( looking for the hand clapping smiley face )

CCauley--As a fellow March brother, I can tell you that I am motivated by your consistent quit. Whenever you committed to staying quit with the March 14 Iron Men, you didn't just commit to helping yourself quit. No, you committed to helping me quit and to helping your brothers quit. Our quits continually strengthen each other and by ourselves we are done.

So, I'm asking you. Will you post roll and let me know that you support my quit?

You know this site better than this.  What do you expect people to say when you cry you don't have the motivation to post role? "Its ok pal, don't worry about it, role is no big deal..."

Pull your Fucking head out of your ass and go soak it.  Then post role.
This is what I expected/needed to hear.
Ccauley, this is the time when you are going to be vulnerable. If you arent feeling motivated, then its time to re evaluate your quit and take steps to make sure you stay quit. Post roll and get involved man. Adopt a newbie, hit the chat room up. Dont lose the new quitter feel and stop giving a shit. When i lost my new quitter feeling i had to really take a look at myself and figure out what the fuck i was going to do. Now im at day 63 and quittng harder than ever every damn day. Stay involved and dont miss roll. I quit with you man. Let me know if you need anything
You are and always will be an addict. You have come a long ways, be proud, remain humble and enjoy your life without the poison. Most of all,,, be smart!!! Post roll and continue what has worked for you thus far. Why change what isn't broke?!?!
Regarding motivation and posting roll....................................................People say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing. That's why we recommend it daily! ~Zig Ziglar
The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it. ~ Chinese Proverb

The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

Give me a fucking break. Takes 40 Fucking seconds. Do you have a smart phone, a tablet, a work computer. FIND the fuckung time I bet you used to find the time to buy a can and load your lip with cancer candy.
