I quit today. Again.

[Robb Wolf]

Hey wolf,

Don't want to be a ... But

What's different this time?
When you gonna see your buddies again?
Seems you quit before and won't be a problem doing it again.
I mean... Isn't that half the fun? Sneaking around and lieing about it???

Not convinced your ready.
You caved.
Do you think posting roll is the magic formula.
What does posting roll mean to you?
I Don't usually bust balls like this, but I'm concerned about your girls. Maybe they can bring there new dad his tobacco cans after you fight cancer and loose.

I live with it daily watching my father in law die.

Don't walk in here acting like you have this figured out.
You are an addict, playing Russia Roulette with your life and with the future of your girls.
One cell goes bad...... You may just go Night Night.

FOR WHAT....

A poison Stimulate? That owns you?

Prove me wrong. Show up here early every morning, post roll, and promise to never touch the NB ever again. EDD ODAAT.

I so want you to be real, and be quit.

Ps Money is a real weak reason to quit.
You just put IT #1 before your family?
And tomorrow when you have money, I quess it will be OK to cave again???

Wanna fight?
I'm ready to fight you for your quit and for your life.

I quit with you.

Holy shit. Yeah, you're right. I've got a used pouch in right now that I dug out of the trash. It's out now.

What does roll call mean to me? It means structure. It means forming a new habit and a new routine.

And money is tied up in family. Having money to feed and clothe and provide for them. But I see your point..

Damn. Thanks for smacking the rose colored glasses off.

I'm kind of a loner, so the brotherhood aspect of KTC I sort of discounted. But no, in one short day I'm pretty blown away by the number of people who took the time to speak, and each one says "I quit with you" like it's an active, right now action.

Am I ready? In the next 100 days I'll still have a brand new baby and we're packing up and moving from Washington to Arizona. The site says don't quit during a stressful time, but I don't see a stress free time coming any time soon. So ready or not, now is when I'm quitting.

Thanks for giving a shit about a stranger.

I quit with you.

I have no idea what is compelling me to comment on your intro 'pony'. I really don't understand the whole pony boner talk, guess I'm just too old. That being said I've seen every reason to quit nicotine during my time here on KTC. Honestly over 40 years I used most of the same reasons for all my failed half assed attemps to quit. Money is actually one of the weakest, addicts would steal food from their babies mouth for their fix, that same baby can stay in a shitty diaper for another hour for the fix. I believe that the only reason to quit that will lead to success is a selfish desire to quit for #1. Once I decided that I want to be free and found this resource success started.
You are off to a good start quitting but I encourage you to read all the HOF speeches and words of wisdom you can, it will give you a new perspective on nicotine addiction.

Thanks fellas. I'll totally take my aggression out on you. Sounds fun!

I just included that pony stuff to be a little different... But seriously, it's a good cartoon by the same people who did Powerpuff Girls... Maybe I shouldn't admit to liking Powerpuff girls too? Whatever, I'm not in high school, no need to be trendy. I like what I like. I'm switching my avatar to a pony just to raise eyebrows.

And I know some bronies. Like, pony tattoos bronies. All I can say is, I've had sex with someone other than my hand. That right there disqualifies me from being a bronie.

TH8 is the place to be. I've maxed out everything but walls. Rockin the purple, on my way to Legos.

Lol! My brother! If we all would have been my little pony fans we may not have stuck that shit in our mouths! On a more serious note my friend, I'm 50 dipped 38 years and had a heart attack 2 years ago. Doctor tells me it was from dipping. Blood pressure was always around 149-93 for years. Nothing to even take medicine for but when I dipped it rose to 180-110 and I never knew it. So yes anyone dipping is killing there selves. Some slowly and others not so lucky. And yes I was in shape, worked out, watched what I ate and was not fat. Pass that along to some of your dipping buddies let them try the blood pressure before dip and during. Sorry just felt you needed hear that. Anyway get in here post roll and let's get you some badass quit going! I quit with you today! Just an addict trying to help another addict! Rage on my friend we all did and do!

Wow. I did need to hear that. Thanks. Too bad I don't get to try the blood pressure trick now that I have a brand new quit I don't want to ruin.

I'll be honest I had to google brony.

Robb, I don't believe I would have told that. 'Crazy'

Proud to quit with you.

[JKEdwards]

First of, congrats on coming to the site. It is a huge help to me to have people around that I can talk to that understand what I am going through. As much as my wife wants to be able to help, she can't because she hasn't been down this road.

Second, I like you already. While I don't personally like my little pony, any person that wants to admit they are getting close to being a brony has balls. And it takes balls to quit.

If you need any support or digits feel free to shoot me a pm. I'm here to help when you need it. Use the tools here at KTC. Post roll every day. Take your rage that you will eventually deal with out on people here. Be active on the forums. That is how I use the tools here and it has made quitting much easier.

P.S. I also play Clash of Clans. Rocking the TH8.

Welcome Robb,

Good job posting.roll. Keep it up every day. Nicotine robbed you of your money, your time with your family, and whether your dentist could tell or not your health. Why would you continue something that steals from you.

So the plan is to post roll early every day. Be involved in your quit group. Trade numbers with other quitters. Do it today, that is all is asked of you, Today. Then wake up tommorow and repeat. Don't worry about forever. Celebrate your new found freedom one day at a time. PM me if you need anything.

[Robb Wolf]

This site is incredible. I quit for 50 days last October, inspired by Kill The Can, but the holidays rolled around and and I ran into old buddies, and I dipped. And kept dipping until today. Last time I didn't use the roll call, this time I will.

Why I'm quitting after 12 years:
1) Money. My wife and I have 2 kids and a maxed credit card. It's totally possible for us to live within our means and pay down our debts and still live comfortably. There are other changes happening as well with our budget, but I can't in good concience continue to spend over a hundred dollars a month on tobacco when we're struggling to buy diapers and groceries.

2) The sneaking and the lying. I admit that those aspects are part of the thrill of the whole experience, but they're also part of the sickness.

3) My daughters. My two-year-old finds my can and proudly brings it me... Luckily, I've pocketed it quickly every other time, so no one's noticed, but she did it last week while I was eating dinner with my wife and parents... Fail.

4) Health. Yeah, I guess, but I saw a dentist after last October's quit and she said she wouldn't have guessed I had ever chewed if I hadn't pointed it out to her. It's an important reason, to be sure, but not one that resonates with me.

Me: I'm 32, married to a doctor in her first year out of med school, I have a master's degree in opera performance, I'm a stay-at-home dad a two-year-old and two-month-old. I love to cook, especially authentic Mexican food. I try and live a Paleo/Primal lifestyle. I play clash of clans and final fantasy record keeper. I like my little pony, but not nearly enough to be considered a Brony.

This is the first time I've ever posted in a forum of any kind. Glad to be here and looking forward to the quit!!
