Gonna get through this!

[Thumblewort]

Up to the afternoon of day 7 and I feel great! The cravings are still there, certain things still trigger them but itÃ,’s nowhere near as hard as it was to get by them. I have energy that I havenÃ,’t had in a long time and IÃ,’ve been sleeping better as well.

I quit with you today.

FFDANE,

Welcome to the group. You have the right attitude. I am just going to do this. That is exactly the correct and winning way to think!

I am sharing tips that I learned in my quit after using for over 40 years. I hope this helps you.

The main way to be successful is to just decide that you have quit. Once you stop the negotiating in your head as to whether you will do one more or not the rest becomes far more simple.

Next, you will learn to distract your attention from your desire for a dip to anything else that interests you. This ability to change your focus will guarantee your success and make your quit that much easier.

When you place a dip in your mouth, your brain releases sugars. Well, those sugars are now going to be gone.

However, you can replace them with OJ or other fruit juices with sugar. This will provide some comfort, especially on your initial quit days.

Make sure to exercise with weights and cardio when you feel that nagging tension in your muscles, you feel that rage, when you can not sleep and when you cannot focus. Exercise really helps.

Here is one that most people overlook. Get at least 3 square meals a day. Hunger can really bring on those urges so squash those urges before they come. Eat full healthy meals and do not let yourself get excessively hungry. You will see this helps a great deal.

I waited until I was 59 quit after using tobacco for 40 years. You are wise to quit now.

I quit with you today.

Day 4

So far so good.
HavenÃ,’t really had any cravings or anything but texting some fellow quitters this morning I think helped out a lot with that!

Day 3

I had quite the craving this morning after my coffee for a chew, but I fought it and won! I was raging quite a bit then as well but got past that as well. Right now I feel just ok but ok is fine with me

ItÃ,’s a dog fight ever day. Take it every hr or minute if you have too. Straight up fucking dog fight.

If it was easy to quit, everyone would. Like everything worthwhile in our lives, it takes hard work and commitment.

Keep it up.
Get over the hump...then the next then the next.
Each day 1 more promise kept.
Quit hard FF!

Quit for today, Dane. Don't worry about tomorrow. Anyone can quit for a day, even me. Quit for today.

Tomorrow, you decide to quit for a day, again.

One friggin' day. No more, but no less.
