Day 8

Cravings begin to get stronger and here i thought i was passed the worst of it. with the help of junk food and water i was able to drive through it. i might have a few more cavities for the dentist to fix but at least my lip will still be intact. i get home from work and start looking into the site more to see we had some new members in the group and some that haven't made roll in a while. i spent the better part of an hour or so sending them all emails and encouraging them. that helped kill any cravings i had cause i feel i let them down especially the one that decided to leave the site. Hopefully he will stay in touch but we help all those we can and hope for the best.

Another day done and ready to move onto Day 9 and put a good old fashion ass woopin on it.
Great work, Reaper!!! thats how its done, bro. Whatever it takes. And believe me, the tough times will be fewer and farther between, the more days you stay quit.

I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.?

This is tough the instructor is kike the teacher off Ferris Buellers day off and the cravings are strong but like yall said nut up.  Well I am doing that and cant eat in class so im chewing the shit out of gum.  thank you all for the extra push.
Throwing another idea at you. I go to gnc and buy mint oil. Then i make mint tooth picks. Works like a charm for driving and I'm sure it would help in your situation.

7 days is no joke. Your obviously determined and a man of your word. Keep laying the foundation. You will like how this quit comes together. Glad to be quit with you. Need another number let me know.

I do the same thing but use cinnamon oil for toothpicks. It gives a nice burn and I can chomp the hell out of 'em! Rock on m'brutha. You're doing great...
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

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.

Day 7

have to attend a week long course for my job.  it will be a death by power point for a solid week and I know that my cravings will kick into overdrive.   I have gone this far without it and another week will be hard but that bitch is not gonna put her nicotine filled tits in my face this week and win I will best her ass at this one.  thank you all for your stories as they continue to inspire me to push myself to accomplish my goals and be nic free for life.
Sunflower seeds like a mofo, I also recommend Dubble Bubble and Jolly Ranchers.

I will not wish you luck or say remain tough because you already have the drive...so just nut up and roll through it.
Get some beef jerky too. It worked better than anything for me.
You are showing a quitter's heart, brother. Just take the advice above and knock it out 1 day at a time. The week may sound bad, but today, just one day, is merely a pain in the ass. You have got this one.

Day 6

Found a quick way to kill a craving. Was after church and didnt have any seeds and one of the guys there was giving my mom peppers so I tried one that is close to a hibenero pepper. Yep killed craving real quick and anything else I could think of.

Reaper,
For me this was the worst period of my quit. Days 4-8 were pure discomfort. You have this. The days get better and the fog goes away. Stay strong.

It kind of looks like you are following my timeline, can't you do anything your own way?...lol...

Look back at my day 4-10 and then look at what happened on day 11. Day 11 was like a switch was flipped and headaches were gone and I could sleep. I used day 11-30 to really recharge my batteries and prepare for the next fight.
Oh little worm-dirt...you are so scary...F' OFF...!!!

Day 5 was a busy one and the cravings wasnt there but the headaches were.  Couldn't sleep last night so all day kept myself busy to keep the mind off the cravings.  Still hanging tough and fighting through the pains.  its worth the fight I know now how rocky felt in most of his matches.  the nic bitch keeps pounding in me but in the end I kick her ass.
Kickin ass and takin names!

I havent had any headaches but i can relate on the lack of sleep. It seems like weeks since Ive had a decent nights sleep. Being quit is worth all the sleepless nights.

Thanks for calling me yesterday, I enjoyed talking to you. Call anytime

Same here. i agree the sleepless night is worth the freedom of nicotine.
