The poison sucks. I hate it. I hated it this morning, I hated it at noon, I hated it at supper and I hate it tonight. I enjoy hating it so much I'm going to wake up tomorrow and start over hating it. I quit with anyone that wants to hate it with me.

Quote from: Rob1985
Day 46 - Last night I went to the sport bar to catch up on a few NHL games, of course the obnoxious college basketball fans were there too. This sports bar has two rooms off the main room with pool tables, air hockey, you get the idea. I found the hockey game on one of the huge projected screen in one of the side rooms. I walk in, start watching and caught a guy with a corona bottle... 1/4 full of dip juice. Now, for the first time ever since I have quit it didn't trigger a crave AT ALL. In fact I didn't feel anything except for disgusted. You know, that same feeling others used to get when we would dip around them. I will admit, this guy had a prolific lip full, in fact epically prolific. In the past I would have been like "shit, that guy takes a big dip", this time it was more like "that guy is a dumb ass". I then I went back to watching my game.. It's interesting to find myself thinking about it less and less each day and fighting less daily cravings. Each craving it slapped down easier than the one before.

Beating this vicious Nic Bitch goes from "hour-by-hour" to "day-by-day" to "week-by-week". Now I am ever vigilant. I still quit for today and promise that, but I know tomorrow I WILL BE QUIT. I know this week, I WILL BE QUIT... I know this month I WILL BE QUIT. I know past 100 days I WILL BE QUIT. When I reach that point I will immediately pledge my 200 days without a doubt! Not getting too far ahead of myself, but damn it feels to be quit. Words cannot express the amount of joy and pride I have to feel this great! It's like a whole new life!

Good stuff.

When I watch baseball, I see how stupid the players look with a big wad in their face (I'm looking at you Pablo Sandoval).
Good work Rob. It's a small victory in realizing how gross it is. Many small victories make for a huge arsenal of quitting power.
Your quit rocks Rob. I noticed one thing lately. It was one thing to say we hate it, but when we started to really hate it the meaning was so much more profound. Diesel stated on a post that he wouldn't wish nicotine on his worse enemy. I understand that more than ever now. Who we use to join and feel like we had something in common with,,,,, we now feel sorry for. You keep quiten Rob and I'm glad to be quiten with you.

I know many of you probably won't like this type of music, but the lyrics to this song do a great job of describing the love affair I (we) have with nicotine. The struggles we went through in the past to quit, then finding this site and having it all come together... because "this time it's different"... destroy my pain, then capture life again! (Note: this link may be dead in the future, so if it is then just search for it)

40 days! I made it 40 days! I feel great, but the guard is still up. Here's to another day of quit!
Nice work so far and remember this is one awesome quit day at a time brother!
Zactly - remember the euphoria and excitement because there are plenty of obstacles ahead of you.

ODAAT!!!
Yo -

not sure if someone had told me this early in my quit or if it was just something that I adopted for myself, but look at your quit like waves that come upon you.

when they are high and you feel good, enjoy them

when they are low, get ready and fight through them, use your tools that are here on the site

in the end the highs get longer and longer, higher and higher the more +1 you string together.

so today we quit +1 together, and feeling good Louis.
No doubt I have work ahead of me, I am trying to put the significant events as I go through my first 100 days in my introduction so I can reference it later.

I have already looked back and reflected on how far I have come and why it is so important to remain quit and to post roll every day.
Keep posting your progress and experiences in here. It will help others. It will help you.

Freedom is worth it.
