nice job AmyJo. 29 days of quit is purely KICK ASS!

I remember back in the day, quitting for a week was unfathomable, let alone a month. I bet your hubs has seen you rocking it and it finally soaked in. You can do it if you want to.

well done!
Thank you Tarpon! 31 days now and starting to see a bit of light. Not craving the minute I get up... Feeling like I might actually be able to do this... Husband still quit and so very thankful. Although he is not on here - he is bad ass too. 'oh yeah'
Mine Quit yesterday evening and he hasn't decided to get on here yet either.. I'm glad they are both quitting though!
We all know you can do this AmyJo. Failure is not an option. That is great that both you and Cindy's hubbies are quit. Now you gals can lay down some quit knowledge to help them along. Keep up the good work.
Agree, this in one of the more impressive things I've seen here in my short time. Lead them down the path ladies. Anoint them in quittitude.

QLF ODAAT..

When you stop quitting hard, you forget how hard it was.

"When will you put the arrogance and ignorance aside and choose to live and to live with honor and integrity. It's the best fucking feeling in the world. It beats the shit out of feeling like a loser caver. It beats the shit out of knowing that you are nic's bitch. It beats the shit out of getting cancer and dying. This is really hard shit and you have to attack it with a vengeance. Get after it January. Quit like fuck" ~ Bronc

Wow 29 days! My 28th day was the worst. I only survived by calling and saying that I needed to break my promise and quit. It was only a day or two. I woke up and the air was fresh! My mind was free and I survived my darkest day!

You still have battles but staying quit this long. Keep doing it! It gets easier but triggers are still there. When you are craving, accept it and make the call. Soooo many times I craved and call someone. We didn't even talk about it...most the time. We just talked about life.

Within 30 seconds...craving gone and I would promise to post if I woke up.

Here it the secret. How you feel today about your quit is not how you will feel tomorrow. Just think in terms of 24 hours. Can you make it 24 hours. (You can) when you wake and beat it...It get easier. I personally don't think our addiction gets easier, I think we have trainers that taught us and we became stronger.

954 days. I'm winning my nicotine addiction but still and addict. I am working on other addictions like food and laying on the couch. I have 99 problems but nicotine is fun to fight now. I am undefeated with KTC!

Just follow the plan and you won't fail.
Proud of you, Amy!
Keep rockin' the quit, AmyJo. It is always good to see you in May.

Amy reporting in on my 29th day. Things are up and down somewhat, but getting easier.

Best news I have had in a very long time - today my husband is QUIT! You most likely won't see him on here, even though I've suggested it.

I'm just so dang happy! I am also proud of the fact that I always knew where the chew was around the house, and was tempted but never caved. Now it's not around AT ALL!

Hey AJK- look at the quote from AppleJack in my signature- that disorientation is freedom! it gets a lot better later. Let go into the good of it--- you deserve it and have earned it. When the quit isn't hard work use that opportunity to rest and recharge. Its gets much better for a long time- so much you don't even konw what it is until you get there because you've been enslaved all this time. But you still have to earn it, and the calm times are good once you let the freedom feel good instead of being wary of it. Keep up the great quit- communication and involvement is key!
This info helped me early on, and still does today: https://whyquit.com/whyquit/linksaaddiction.html

Quitters I’ve met so far: Ihatecope, >Pinched<, T-Cell, grizzlyhasclaws, Canvasback, BaseballPlayer, Cbird65, ERDVM, BradleyGuy, Ted, Zeno, AppleJack, Bronc, Knockout, MookieBlaylock, Rdad, 2mch2lv4, MN_Ben, Natro, Lippizaner, Amquash, ChristopherJ, GDubya, SRohde  -- always eager to meet more!
