Day 18. Well, the last few days I played 54 holes of golf and didn't dip snuff. It's not that I didn't think about it but managed to get thru it. I think I will be able to kick it this time. Just have to know that right now it is a day to day quit. So again, today I quit dipping snuff. Happy to be here.

Day 11 and second weekend behind me without a dip. It will definitely take some getting use too. Gotta take up some more hobbies or something. Believe it or not, but I am past the nicotine need. I mean my mind still needs something or I still have triggers but I don't think of dipping just a need or lack of something. Hard to explain but I bet some of you know what I am talking about. Anyway, I quit with you guys today. Sure glad I'm here.

Roller coaster ride. There will be highs and lows. Don't put yourself at a point where you think you are beyond something, because sooner or later you will get a reality check. That experience does sometimes claim quitters.

Just remember that the nic bitch is waiting outside in the parking lot doing push ups.
I here you brother. You have had more experience than me when it comes to quitting for sure. Thanks for keeping me in check. I am here because I quit and I continue to want to learn.
Thanks

There are no circumstances in which using nicotine will improve the outcome.

My journey. The best part it is not over yet.

Stay strong. Are you using any fake stuff?
Yeah. It sucks too.
Dude, I'm telling you, embrace this suck. Stroke it, cuddle it, nurture it...because it is going to be the last damn time in your life you're ever going to experience this misery again.  The more it sucks, the better because the worse it sucks, the stronger your resolve to never go through this again.

There is no freakin' way you're going back to that can so you just keep doing what your doing. I'm quitting with you today ...all day long and I'll be ready to go first thing in the morning to do it all over again.

One week is badass indeed. You're on to the mind games my friend. You are going to slay these mind games because you are one tough motherfucker. Keep at it: ODAAT. If you survived yesterday, you'll survive today just fine.

Proud to quit with you.

Day 7. Never thought I could make it a week. I just have to keep saying today I will not dip. Everyday. I can feel a change coming over me. Freedom maybe. If I had a problem, just take a dip. Now, I try to work it out. If my wife is bitching at me, I would take a dip. Now, I tell her to fuck off(just kidding). I actually listen and if its too much, I walk away and come back to battle with a calmer mindset. I do close drawers a little harder still but I know I'm doing it and why. Someday, I know it will be easier.

So, today I look forward to quitting with you all TODAY. Now fuck off! http://z5.ifrm.com/9081/145/0/e39190//e39190.gif

One week is badass Cantoo! That change you are feeling is your nicotine ravaged brain starting to heal and you beginning to realize Nicotine did nothing for you except keep you (and all of us) enslaved. Freedom!!! You are right brother....If I can do this you can too. ODAAT man.

That business partner of yours sent me a text asking me to get on board with you quit, and I responded that we'll make a badass quitter (BAQ) out of you. So instead of facing him every day, you have to deal with me as well. You also have to deal with all the new quitters who join your April 2016 quit group. Who else...did you bring in family? Friends? If not, then do it. Let everybody know that you are quitting. The bigger you build your accountability foundation, should you fail, the bigger the guilt. Make that accountability so big that the guilt of failing is something you have no desire to fathom.

Post roll every day and never miss a day. 756 days in as of this post and I am batting 1.000 on roll posting. Become active on the site, make new friends and brothers in quit. Begin to reinforce that quit foundation every day, making it absolutely impervious to nicotine. Lastly, do this for you. Not for all of these people in your accountability matrix, just for you. Those in your foundation reap the benefits of you being quit, when you quit for you.

So, be a man of your word, ...don't be a pussy. Time to be one of the cool guys. Check your PM - you got your first accountability rock in there.
Steak, your the bomb. Ha. I'm sure you never heard that. Stay with me. I feel that I can do this but that damn nic bitch is still sitting on my shoulder. I quit with you today.
The nic bitch will always be on your shoulder whispering sweet nothings into your ear. it is a daily struggle that gets better but mainly because as your quit matures you learn that the addict you was weak.

It is how a man addresses the challenges presented to him that makes the man; it is not the challenges that make the man.
I will address the challenge everyday. EDD!
