We say these things not as a poke or a pick. We say them so you know what is going on. We quit for today. We even have to quit for a second at a time. Even some of the old timers would agree with that. Tomorrow isn't promised to us so we can't promise tomorrow.

In anycase. Congrats guys! Drink up the water and don't give in to lat little, insignificant, 1oz can. You let that little bit(h rule your life for too long. Kick the B daily!



Just for today, Self.

You and I both gave up nicotine forever yesterday.
Nope...

Just today guys. Just worry about kicking ass today. Forever is just too damn hard to manage.
Today is hard to manage . . at least this early. Hell if you're talking about Day 1 or 2 or early on in general, the next 30 minutes is hard to manage.

At this point you quit for the moment. For the meal. For the hour. For the break. It's white knuckle time. But that's the price you pay.

I hoping to be done for good
Funny how many people come in here with "hope." Hell I think I did too.

Gotta change your thinking. There is no hope. There is only do.

Go post roll in August 16 . . .give us your word you won't use today, then be a man of your word. Then do it again tomorrow.

That's what I've done for 487 days in a row . . that Day 1 on Jan 5 2015 changed my life. Grab it by the balls dude! Embrace the suck!! 'Cause it's going to suck. But you get your freedom back immediately.

No hope or luck, but we DO post roll every day.

Welcome

We don't hope or "do our best" around here. We quit.

We do that by promising other nicotine addicts to not use nicotine for the day. We make that promise every day, as early in the day as we can. Then we honor that promise.

We make that promise by posting Roll Call in our Quit Groups. Your Quit Group is August '16 pre HOF. Find it here in the forum. There are directions for posting roll in the thread, or read about the subject in the Welcome thread.

Posting roll is confusing at first, but you'll figure it out. The only way you can screw up roll is by not posting roll. Someone will fix your mistakes the first couple days until you figure it out.

Drink lots of water. Read all you can here, and on the main KTC site. Get to know your quit brothers and sisters in August. Get some of their digits. Stay quit. Absolutely no matter what, stay quit. One day at a time.

I'm proud to quit with you.

Day One
« on: May 04, 2016, 10:28:00 PM »
So I have been dipping for about 11 years now and I am 30 years old. I was a ball player and it was just the thing to do. I am married now and my wife had known I had dipped but I still dip behind her back. Not the way I want live anymore hiding this issue. I switched to pouches a number of years ago from long cut because it is more desecrate at work and I can get away with it because I do not spit any more. My wifes aunt just passed today from cancer not mouth cancer and this is not the way I want to go. I just purchased and roll on smokey mountain and I am going to be my best to give up for good. I think my biggest struggle is going to be not dipping in all the familiar places. My car, the office, the golf course and on the ball field. I am ready to be done I know it going to be a long road but its time. I am also tired on being the person out of my group of friends as the dipper. I don't want fear my mouth and the dentist any longer. I just hope I can make it and be done with it.
