Could someone please explain to me what post roll is? I picked Jan 4ethics because al the stress of the holidays and family will be over. And I have 4 days off that weekend and i know the three days of hell when you first quit. I have a new 5 month old boy and landed a new job that ive been chasing for 6 years. I dont think doing it during the holidays would give me the best chances.
also did anyone have luck using the fake chew? How about welbutrin or Chianti?
We drink alot of tea at my job. We must go through a couple of boxes of teabags a day. I use the dregs from a used teabag to help witht he oral fixation. It doesn't taste bad and it packs just like a real cat turd. Another positive is it really doesn't cost me anything other than what I donate to the tea fund which I was doing anyway. The fake stuff cost about the same as a tin of the real thing..

Yes. I will. If you look here index.php?showforum=13 you will see how we work. We are quitters. All of us. We make it easy though. We ONLY quit 1 day at a time. We do that by posting roll every morning. That is a promise that we will not use today.

It so happens I quit 2 years ago today. I have posted roll every day and stayed clean. It works.

If you will choose to quit on my two year mark I will offer to be your quit Sherpa. Ball is in your court. Post up future friend.

Chevytruck34,

welcome to KTC. I will advise you to follow the urgings of the other guys who have answered your post.

There is no time to quit like the present. Cold Turkey is the best way. Post the roll today and we will be here to help y ou through all the hard shit. I can promise you that if you wait until Jan. 4th you will come up with an excuse not to quit. Just do it now while you have the motivation.

There are stories here about friends and family who always said they would quit tomorrow. Some of those people are dead now. Don't be one of them. It might be the next 4 weeks of using that sends your cells over the edge and you then develop full blown oral cancer and they end up taking half your face because of it.

I'm begging you brother, don't wait. Quit now. it may save your life

Mike

I see you have 33 posts already.... so like me, you have wanted to quit before now. Make this stick. Post roll with me now. We ask for a commitment 1 day at a time. I swear it works. Post up friend.

Howdy Chevy,

Dates and days come and go... I planned to quit tomorrow, next week, next month, Jan 1st, After I got married, before I got married, When I went away, right after christmas... etc.

Flush your stuff down the toilet now, and join the quit revolution. It will be a wild ride, but it will be well worth it. Three days are what it takes for nicotine to leave your body, remember these days and know that you never have to repeat them.

Our program here is simple:

1. Post Roll - more than just your name and number of quit days, this is your promise to all of us that you will not use nicotine for just today. you can do anything for just today, can't you?

2. Honor that promise

3. Repeat.

I am sending you some information, check your inbox(1).

Glad you are here.

Friend, my only suggestion is to quit today, and do not wait. Just like playing russian roulette with a six-shooter, you may never know when that last puff or lipper will contain that one shot to send the cancer right into your cells/blood stream.

And think, if you quit now, you will be almost a month of quit by that 4th date. And we have seen alot here where we say that we will quit "tomorrow" but that tommorrow never arrived.

So quit now and join up in the March 2013 quit group. You will never regret it.

Keep up the good work bro! You're doing excellent. Stay strong and stay quit this weekend!

Fighting an addiction by yourself is hard enough, but fighting it with others who know what you?re going through and will fight side by side with you makes that battle a hell of a lot easier.
