Day 3 is here and I am still fighting the good fight. Kind of want to punch every moron I see in the throat but other than that little edgyness things are going really well!
You know, Dude, I myself dabbled in pacifism once. Not in 'Nam of course.

Made through Day 1 into Day 2. I seem to be sweating a ton lately but other than that doing ok.

It is going to be a good day without the chew!

Yep, did my share of sweating as well. (And I already sweat like a pig, so had to be quite the increase to notice.)

Congrats and stick with it!!

Jason, I read in the other thread about you asking about hooch, I have just tried smokey mountain, hooch, and bacc-off. In my opinion, they all taste and smell like ass. None of them even comes remotely close to the cope snuff i dipped.  I guess i didnt expect it to be the same, but slightly close would have been awesome.  The only one i tried that even tasted like dip, was the smokey mountain wintergreen, it tastes sort of like Hawken, the crap i dipped in middle school.

So far i have been using toothpicks, everytime i have a crave, ( after meals, before bed, pretty much all day LOL ) 

I think the hardest part of this quit , isnt the nicotine crave, it is that cope has been my friend for 18 years, and no matter what happened in my life, it was always there. And now i must kick that fucker out of my life.
I hear you bud! I am still interested to see what it is like as far as a feeling in my mouth once it comes in the mail. Gum and sunflower seeds are helping but now my jaw hurts and my lips are all white from the salt :D
They won't taste anything like what you used to chew. So get that right out of your head right now.
They won't replace what you used to chew. There isn't anything out there that will help make the bad man go away. Except guts. You gotta have the guts just to say F it. Pick youself up by your boot straps and say I'm done.

The fake stuff helps. It's just not going to "save" you. You use it when needed. but it doesn't replace your chew. Don't get me wrong. it will help.

I am 29, been chewing since 14 and really have been thinking about quitting for a while now. For some reason I always made the excuse, NEXT WEEK or MONTH, or YEAR. My wife and I just recently had our first baby (5 month old boy) and I finally realized I need to be around for him!

Had my last chew and hour ago and tossed the rest of the can in the trash. Wish me luck guys!

One thing... there is no luck involved in quitting. Do or do not... there is no try. ;)

All the right reasons, although I think you'll find that you'll hear that you need to want it for yourself first, which I believe is true.

My last chew was Friday so I'm on Day 4 now. Welcome to the group and certainly here to help if you need it.

Best of luck!

Oh I do want it for myself for sure. I feel like a ticking time bomb at any point the dreaded C could show up and I am pretty sure I do not want to die B)
