MAde it another hour. Thanks Denny. Dreading dinner, Mexican food and cold beer with family. Dreading the desire for dip after dinner.
Better watch that cold beer, that stuff can kill a good quit really fast. Especially in the first few weeks. I have saw a lot of people cave and most time's, alcohol played a factor in it. If you need a number or anything at all feel free to pm me.

Welcome to KTC GA. This is the best decision you can make and the best Fathers Day Present you will ever give yourself. Here is a link to help you with the roll posting. index.php?showtopic=50

Check your PM box. I sent you my telephone number. Give me a call and we can talk about quitting and how damned hot it is right now in Central Texas.

Nicely done GA, one hour or one minute at a time. You're doing this and you can keep doing this. You said that you're fighting this battle alone inside. Also said you are emotional. Maybe I'm reading too much into your post or maybe I've seen it a thousand times (me included) but sounds like your wife doesn't know you are an addict. Mine didnt know either, I quit and she had no idea what was going on inside me. I couldn't tell her I was fighting the BATTLE OF MY LIFE because she did t know in the first place. I was emotional as hell. I cried, she thought I was losing it. I'd sneak I to KTC and go into chat hovering over the "close window" button in case she walked in. Did I mention I was an emotional mess? It felt like I had lost my best friend. Felt like he had been murdered, taken from me without warning. That was nic's last ditch effort to cling onto me - its a lie, they are all lies. She was no friend, she used me, abused me, made me hide from my family while I got my fix, all day every day. Screw that. If that's you then you can relate. If not then maybe someone else can relate. Either way, welcome to the site, welcome to the family! Fight like your life depends on it because it does. Read the Kern story. Read everything. Read how to post roll then go do it. Jump in, let us help. Let us guide you to a freedom that you don't even know exists because nicotine has ruled your life for YEARS. That should piss you off.

Freedom is beautiful - but it's a bitch to attain. Earn your freedom. Be stronger than the toxin.

Get in the pool and start swimming laps. Go to the gym. Get your heart rate up for a while. Keep drinking water. The exercise will and water will help flush the poison out. Like I said, the Welcome Center has a great deal of information on what to expect.

As was mentioned earlier, pomegranet and cranberry juice are excellent to use to flush your body.

Remember, the anguish you are experiencing now is being caused by an outside substance know to be a poison. It is leaving you and you are addicted to it. You were not born with it in you, and it is contrary to your life. You can, and you will defeat it.

I appreciate it. I am really struggling, wife and daughter and dog in the pool swimming, I am trying to fight this demon inside, alone on fathers day. Afraid to eat much, certainly afraid to have a few beers as. Trying to totally change habits.
Wecome GA... I was an on and off smoker for 24 years and this site is where I finally figured out how to QUIT and not just stop. (Hint: You didn't have a bad habit. You are an addcit.)

It's a bit slow here on the weekends but chat always picks up in the evenings. That will help you pass time. In the meantime, read, read, read. Read intro threads (the one started by ItsGot2Happen is quit GOLD and will keep you busy for awhile) and Hall of Fame speeches... just keep reading.

There are a lot of quitters in Texas. Glad to have you join us.

Full on water brigade - as much as you can drink - to start flushing the toxins out - Cranberry or pomegranate juice helps also
