OK. Going to detox yoga class in 40 minutes - then off to Walmart/Meijers to buy one each of a can of un-nicotine everything. You guys are ruthless. No time like today. Will check in later and most likely hourly in the coming weeks and months. Really? Someone will talk to me if I need it? Like on the phone?
My number is in your pm box. Collect and use as many numbers as you can here. Welcome!
Atta girl, you will be the youngest child in December since this is the last day to join their group. The youngest always gets spoiled.

There is live chat as well as sharing your phone number (digits is the slang here) with other quitters so you can call or simply text each other for support. Only give digits out in PMs, never on an open forum like we are on now.
my digits are waiting. grab as many as you can. great choice. start now. weekend will be so much better.

Now change your quit date in your profile, get over to December and post roll!!(You will figure out what roll is as soon as you head over there, instructions are there). It is a good thing to be the last in a quit group almost everyone in your quit group has suffered thru the first 72 hours and will be there to support you.

like on the phone is correct. you will find my # in your pm as well. text or call whatever, by whatever means to put a check in the Quit Nic column.

Amy, you need to understand that over the past month, we have seen this play twice. In both cases we got an intro, a planned quit date, the assorted, "No time like today" from all the vets and when the delayed date came.....POOF.

Do us all a favor and do it now because you don't want your intro to become the following:

Amy,
As has been pointed out above, make it today. Tell your husband that you and he are quit right now, and dump out any existing cans. As far as alternatives Smokey Mountain is available at Casey's General Stores as well as WalMart among other retailers. You may also find that Lifesavers mints, Redhots, Hot Tamales, Cinnamon discs and sunflower seeds are a great alternative. Also, drink lots of water, if you can pass a restroom without the urge to cross your legs and feel as though you are about to piss on everything then you are not drinking enough water. This may sound fucked up but it does work, I myself didn't use fake until about week 2 or so.

Also, postponing your quit date can often cause a "planned" cave date. No ways out, no retreat,; just do it now. The first week is the worst, so why louse up a weekend with making that part of it?

I quit with you and I urge you and your husband to dump your cans in the toilet, piss on them then flush...it is quite liberating.

OK, so where do I get fake chew? And what is the best? Grizzly Wintergreen is my poison. Today? Can I do this? What about Nicorette gum or lozenges? I know this is a no nicotine site, so don't yell at me. I wanna be a bad ass quitter, and want to be successful. I have tried to quit so many times cold turkey. My heart rate is already increasing just thinking about this. Loving the support though.
Bad Ass = Cold Turkey.

No patches, lozinges, gum. No nicotine means just that. None.

Walmart sometimes carry Smokey Mountain. But get seeds, sugar free gum, toothpicks, straws, beef jerkey, jaw breakers, ANYTHING that doesn't have nicotine.

It's going to suck, but you have to do it. If I can, you can.
Not worth the wait Amy. cold turkey! Get some fake and some seeds. It is all that you need!

you can get the fake chew at walmart, or online. look up smokey mountain. walmart carries that brand. Oregon mint snuff company has some fake chew you can get at meijer stores if you have any close to you. But the one advice I can give, and these guys are the ones who showed me the way, it to quit today and start posting roll. Dive into KTC and make it a daily part of your life. Get numbers, post roll, read intros, etc. One day at a time. Post roll first thing and be accountable to yourself and all of us here at KTC. Don't wait. It is not worth it. Bottom line. No better day than today to quit.

I've never done any of the fake stuff so I can't lead you there.

As for nicotine replacement... You answered your own question. This is a no nicotine site... Period. I know it's scary. Damn... We ALL know because we've all been through it or are going through it now. We did it... So can you. You are bigger than the drug you're addicted to. Time to take a step up, believe it, and act like it. Freedom is here for the taking.
You.
Can.
Do.
This!
Well, it’s one louder, isn’t it? It’s not ten.

Walmart has fake chew. Below has reviews and listing for various types:

No nicotine patches or gum, it is just going to prolong your addition and enable you to relapse.
Drink tons of water and exercise.
