Keep working CCM...best thing you'll ever do.

Wanted to let you know you can accelerate your schedule too. I had planned on a 3-month ween down. I had a plan and everything. Every time it was time for my fix, I'd try to go a little bit longer...15 minutes, 1 hour...before you knew it it was getting easier and easier to go longer.

Stick with your plan, or quit now...we're all pulling for you.

mark --

i'll second what 11 has said.  i'd prefer you quit today, but if you are happy with this plan then i'll be happy to support you in it.

one word of caution though -- i (and many others here) tried to "set a date" and stick to it... as march 1st draws nearer, the nic bitch will come up with all kinds of reasons to extend your dipping life -- don't let her.

when march 1 rolls around, i expect you to be the first in line posting day 1....  you'll be in the june 2008 class -- wish we'd see you quit sooner but i'll definitely commend you on having a plan and sticking to it.

Most people around here don't know that I cut down for I think a week from a can a day to 2 bandits on the last day. I was one of the few who stuck to their quit date. You are lucky, I found this site on day 4 of my full quit. I had to go through the cut back and quit on my own.

The boys are right though, no time better than today to quit!!! We will be checking on you daily and we expect that you will be keeping your word. If your word is worth a shit - you will be a quitter soon.

By the way, what do you coach?
Thanks for your reply and support, and also thank you to iuchewie and 11X4 for theirs as well (and to LDiddy).

I coach a girls select fastpitch team (ages 18 and under....basically high school kids preparing to play in college). The team plays 9 months out of the year and travels around the counrty. It is not my job....it costs me a ton of money! I also coach football (ages 9 to 15) in my spare time in the fall!

I should also add to my previous post...

- I won't steal any tabacco today either.

Welcome to the site Mark. We are glad to have you aboard. I will start of by warning you that one of the dips you take between now and March 1st maybe the "bad one".

With that said, I have to admit that your "I will stick to my plan" pledge is commendable. I'm not sure what the others will say about this, but I am going to take that pledge as an equal to posting roll in that I assume it will be your word. That's how this site works. You give your word, you keep your word. Without that this site is nothing. For the next month and a half, when you make that post, I will assume you are in the weaning process of the pre-mixed portions. If you vary from that by buying a can or bumming a dip you have broken your bond.

That being said, you may want to stay out of the groups until you have the tobacco completely kicked. It wouldn't be fair to the completely tobacco free for you to consider yourself their equal quite yet. If you need support until then, send me a PM and I will do my best to help you out. I'm sure there will be some more along shortly that will offer the same.
I've always wanted to save a life, so I started with mine.
