Proud to quit with you Weed. You have definatley helped me in the past year and thanks for doing what you do. Keep on quitting...

well I am fast approaching 1 year and it feels like an eternity ago when I quit. These past few months i have not put much back into KTC...dont know why...cravings have been horrible as I went thru the holidays for the first time in 10 yrs w/o a dip...but the doldrums have got me...I owe KTC a lot and I am trying to get motivated again and help out my new April 18 quitters...i'm coming around reading what they are going through...I remember those days...meet a couple of quitters last month Gregor and Uncle Rico, and Kdip...that was awesome...and looking forward to making the Feb Savannah quit meet as well...taking the wife hoping that she gets it...what i have gone thru b/c of my stupid addiction...my only wish now is that my son will pull his head out before he does irreversable damage...well enough for tonight I plan on writing something a bit more structured for my 365 mark...quit on...ODAAT

so having a lot of weight issues...just can't seem to get it off...went to a weight loss doc and he gave me some vitamin shots and appetite suppressor...so I started eating better and working out more and things seem to be going in the right direction...I have lost 3 lbs in 3 days...I was 197 when I quit and got all the way up to 236 before I said WHOA! anyway...just wanted to document what I am going thru since I did a poor job during my first 100 days...

ok so I went to the doctor and got the all clear on my cancer screening but they said they would keep an eye on it for a year...also...just had a huge victory...took the longest ride of my life almost 2700 miles with no nic....so the small challenges are outta the way now on to the BIGGEST CHALLENGE...ODAAT!! quit on!

well the swelling has gone down but it is still a bit tender to the touch...let's see how long this lasts...just finished a 8 day long mission trip with the church and did all of the driving (almost 22 hrs worth) with no cravings...which is kinda cool...did buy some SMC just in case but still have not opened it...bu nice to have...quit on...

Good LORD....my gums fired up again 2 days ago with a big ole white blister on one spot...of course I gave it a lil lovin and it was full of blood...jaw seems a bit swollen and very sore to the touch...on day 3 now and it seems to be getting a touch better...I think I will go ahead and get the periodontist appt setup so I can get this all checked out...more to come...

Hey Weedsta, I haven't had a chew in 1,328 days but my gums are almost perpetually inflamed. I just assumed my hygiene was lacking somehow or I was flossing too hard. Anyway your post made me wonder so on my last dentist visit I spoke to him about it. He told me after I brush my teeth and floss to get the yellow listerine and brush my gums with a stout tooth brush and the listerine.

I'll be damned if in just a week they have settled down a bit.

Maybe it works maybe it doesn't but it's a pretty cheap remedy to try.

Thanks I will give that a try soon...

As I looked at my gums my jaw actually looks swollen on one side compared to the other...today it is not sore at all so I will give it another check and will also call on monday and get an appt with the periodontists....lovely...thanks again for the insight!
