Getting my QUIT on!

[RAZD611]

Just had to share this…Since my quit began I've had the absolute foulest gas of my life.  The "If I had a dog, I wouldn't blame this on him" kind of flatulence.
I eat super clean, no wheat, no processed food, no fast food.  Fighting this bitch, though, has got my bowels in a tectonic shift.  A shift so massive that today I nasally assaulted a hottie at the gym.  I'm on the treadmill grinding out my cardio and 10 minutes in a 7 face/9 body mounts the treadmill next to mine since it was the only one open at the time.  I'm married so I really don't care, give her the nonchalant nod and soldier on.  Ten minutes later, iPod streaming, ESPN on the little TV…I feel it coming on.  I'm drenched in sweat, 40 minutes to go, trying my best to hold this thing in. Last thing I want to do is shart myself in the gym…I'm wearing shorts, got the visual?
Well, I try the one cheek sneak, and it works, a little.  But trying to deliver this volume of putrid gas 25ml at a time isn't going to happen.  But, I can't go full auto or everyone's going to the E.R.  Over the course of the next 15 minutes I delivered a steady stream of putrefaction rivaled only by Fat Bastard.  Since the treadmill next to our heroine is now empty, it's obvious that I'm the source.  I couldn't blame it on her, she knows…she knows.
Alas, their is a limit to her nasal capacity.  She gets off her treadmill and GOES DIRECTLY to a now empty one at the end of the line! No fake trip to the can, fake phone call or fake stretching!  I was so proud and ashamed at the same time.
Guess i need to dye my hair now.  But how do you dye a bald spot?

'crackup' 'crackup' 'crackup' 'crackup' I can't even get girls to look at me anymore. Good job!

That's freaking hilarious bro! I remember the gas, in fact I kept it till about day 200. I also eat healthy no fast food, wheat, processed foods! Thanks for sharing that funny event with us! Rock on!

Throw a daily banana, apple and some blueberries into your daily diet if you really want to clear the whole gym.

'crackup' 'crackup' This happened to me once in gym class when I was in 8th grade. I held it in all day but then it was time to run laps (indoor gym) and it came out with each step like I was trying to keep a beat! The whole damn class was laughing too hard to run, me included!

You healthy diet guys need to back off the kale and eat some bacon. That's the problem. You eat fruits and veggies all the time and wonder why you shart yourselves. Have a milkshake and a burger once in a while. Also if you are married and don't give a hoot, I think you should let it rip and be proud! You got busted anyway...

Thanks for sharing I almost pissed myself! Quit on.

'crackup' glad its not just me! I still get that sometimes, at day 98. I have a similar diet too. 'crackup'

'crackup' well told!
Forget the hottie, you now have the ability to always get a machine at the fitness center, a table or chair at restaurants and bars. A seat at the big-boy table. Its a freaking super-power! Use it wisely...

Hey Sluggo I've been watching your quit and wanted to throw in my support here. Keep it up, you are doing it! It can get pretty hard at times, but each battle won is another one you don't have to fight again. It does get much better. Just keep your head down and trudge on when it gets tough, and take time to enjoy when it's not so tough.

My best tips are to be sure you are building out a network for your own accountability and support by getting to know fellow quitters of all experience levels, and to educate yourself on nicotine and addiction as much as you can. It really helps to know the enemy, and the more you learn the more likely you will become absolutely pissed about how evil this enemy really is.

I like that Sluggo. A certain band that I like has been a big part of my quit (and my life really) You are using all your tools! Good job!-Keep Going!-I am quitting with you today my friend!

Was working out and 'Lover's Eyes' from Mumford and Sons comes on the iPod.
Substitute Dip/chew/snuff for 'lover's eyes' in the lyrics.

It either makes sense to you, or I'm weirdÂ…(maybe both).


Well, love was kind for a time
Now just aches and it makes me blind

This mirror holds my eyes too bright
I can't see the others in my life

Were we too young? Our heads too strong?
To bear the weight of these lover's eyes.
'Cause I feel numb, beneath your tongue
Beneath the curse of these lover's eyes.

But do not ask the price I paid,
I must live with my quiet rage,
Tame the ghosts in my head,
That run wild and wish me dead.
Should you shake my ash to the wind
Lord, forget all of my sins
Oh, don't let me die where I lie
Neath the curse of my lover's eyes.

'Cause there's no drink or drug I've tried
To rid the curse of these lover's eyes
And I feel numb, beneath your tongue
Your strength just makes me feel less strong

But do not ask the price I paid,
I must live with my quiet rage,
Tame the ghosts in my head,
That run wild and wish me dead.
Should you shake my ash to the wind
Lord, forget all of my sins
Don't let me die where I lie
Neath the curse of my lover's eyes.

And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, help me on my way.
And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, I'll be on my way.

And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, help me on my way.
And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, I'll be on my way.

Anyway, day 4 halfway gone, feeling pretty damn good. Smokey Mountain, gum and almonds are my constant companion. Odd, mouth where I used to hold dip almost feels puffy. Guess it's because I'm not assaulting it with poison 12 hours a day.

To the quit, and beyond!

Not sure, but I would say that if you just post how you feel on your thread and look at any of your quit-groups intro threads and post there you will be team building. Sad fact is that lots of your quit group will not make it, and many who do will not get very involved so I would say not to worry about it. You are going to be a leader for your group since you are going to be a few days/weeks ahead of most of them so you can try if you want...

I will be quit with you all day.

Question for you grizzled veterans out there.
Would it be kosher to open a thread in this forum for my quit class?
Not just for my May 14 quit class, but a thread where we could consolidate as a class if we so chose. I haven't found anything prohibiting it, just not sure I saw anything like it. I know it's not the first time someone had the idea, so maybe we're supposed to stick to our May 14 Quit thread?
Thanks in advance.

[slug.go]

Thanks, all, for the wise words. Good advice times three!

[B-loMatt]

I abstained for the early days of my quit, but I like an adult beverage or 3. Just make sure you take it easy for the first few weeks, and getting really loaded is not advised.
