Holy crap, 83 days. 83DAYS!!!! Why did I ever start chewing in the first place? Can't even remember. Doesn't matter, I feel like a million dollars, even started working out again. I have a lot of fun planned this weekend, some drinking also. Will call Denny when it starts, keep me honest, then again I don't ever wanna go back to day 1. Seen it a few times since I joined here, its not pretty. With that being said BP you are a man among men brother. When I read my first few posts I feel kinda sorry for me, why didn't I start sooner. I have 17 days till the HOF, If I would have quit on my first post I would have 7. What a scared little man. If you are reading this and your thinking about quiting, I am telling you this much, for me it was one of the best things I have done. Monumental, joining the Marines, getting married, that kind of big. My life is back.
Brother, you are the MAN!

Remember this day. It will keep you strong. Don't leave. This place works.

Semper Fi bro.
What is your major malfunction?!?!?!?!

Dropping by to say hello and support a Nevada quit brother. Zeke, I read through this thread, you got some real good guys with real good experience showing you the way thus far. Keep up the good quitting, let me know if you need anything!

Booyah! Outstanding NV. Great stuff. I think Denny and I share the same mental disorder. I dig talking/yelling/preaching about my quit like its my little brother...who happens to carry a 2x4 and likes to say hello by slamming it in your crotch. I kind of look at it as dropping a hammer on an anvil, shaping my quit every time I admit the past to someone, admit I am not that guy anymore and that each one of my foot steps as this new guy brings that hammer down. Sparks fly. I'm another step towards the man I am suppose to be.

Day 24 and counting, feel good. day 30 is coming. A good friend said something to me the other day, a man who watches the clock gains no time. It was in reference to my quit and how I always tell my days, hell I scream them. Guess I'm gonna have to show him this website so he understands.
Hey nv, shout it from the mountains every morning and the rooftops every night. Today, you are FREE and that FREEDOM is almost indescribable. It's a badge of honor that isn't given freely but earned, every day, every hour, as we keep that poison out of our body. Your buddy may not understand, just the same way "non-addicts" can't fully understand addiction until they experience it. The same way my wife doesn't fully understand it. And that's ok. That's why we come here because we know what a HUGE accomplishment 24 days is. And tons of others do too. Congrats man, I'll quit with that!

No ill will my quit brothers...however I have a friend here in town who I think I have convinced to quit. We all know he has to do this....so I am encourging him without yelling or bugging him. Thanks so much for this you all. I feel like I got a second start on life.... The Chinese have a saying....... HA eat shit, I don't speak chinese. LOL Thanks you bunch of meatheads. See ya tomorrow morning for roll call.
There is no excuse for not staying quit. As for your friend: Lead by example. Keep up the badass quitting.

So this weekend went well, almost wondering what the deal is? shouldn't I be miserable right now? fighting, kicking screaming, mad and just not having a good time? This kinda scares me, what if the nic bitch is saving something special for me, that friggin whore. Well its monday so maybe work has something special for me, it isn't supposed to be this quite.
Nothing special dude.

You are in an adrenaline phase of your quit. You still crave, but your quit is strong and you are committed. There will be a time in your short future that the adrenaline runs out and the world becomes dull. This usually happens in the late teens/early 20s, and can be quite nasty.

But if you are feeling well, don't look for the bad stuff. Enjoy the day for what it is.
In the end I Surrender, I and I alone accept that I have and always will have a Nicotene ADDICTION. It is my choice to quit, but I can't do it alone. I get to go down this path one time, I want to do it right. I recognize that my word, my integrety to you is on the line and is only as good as my actions. Caving is not an option in this plan-Eafman 7/11

I am not cured. I will quit one day at a time. I will continue to do what works. Posting roll everyday. To do otherwise would be foolish on my part. You can do this-Ready 12/11

To overcome your addiction you must comprehend what it means to fail-Razd 3/12

Theres a lot of people that come here, especially vets, that WANT to be reminded that they are addicts.-Tarpon 6/12

Just as a building starts with architectural drawings. Your daily quit begins with a promise.-Scowick 2/13

Here and now, focused on today, minute by minute, whatever it takes, I promise to all my bros and myself not to become a negative stat and stay quit!-krok 1/15

I want everyone to be quit. Even the assholes.-Probe1957 1/18

Ignoring history or erasing history fixes nothing and leads you inevitably down the same path.-69franx 04/30/2021
