This makes me laugh to come back and read. I have to do so every once in awhile to remind myself how pathetic and weak I was. here I am 90 days later feeling much better about myself, my quit and my health. Everyday I sign on to KTC, I look forward to see '95 days free', and of course almost $500 saved..and still more to come
When's your 100 days Bruce? Looking forward to reading your HOF speech
Tuesday Feb. 28th
That's free pancake day at Ihop. You can get a free short stack of pancakes at Ihop on tuesday. I think they want you to donate or something to a charity. I ate there today for a really late breakfast with the ladyfriend today.

edit: I went ahead and edited one of my spelling errors. reading not rading
Well that's just gonna be a good all around day for me! Haha

First of all, i'm Bruce, on day 6, already apart of the Feb HOF roll call.

I just wanted to know what you guys out there do as an alternative to dip when shit gets hard (stress, cravings, wife is bitching, ect..)? I quit cold turkey, I want to kill the habit all together, so I don't use any fake shit or seeds, but I chew the hell outta some gum! Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks fellow quitters,
Bruce
Unsalted sunflower seeds are a lifesaver. I also chewed on straws (found I liked Wendy's and McDonald's straws the most, it's all preference)

Exercise. Drink water. I also found the 80 calorie/serving gatorade is also nice if you get sick of water. Just don't fully substitute water for it. Reach out to your group and get numbers, they'll be your lifeline.

Keep up the good work!
It takes ten times as long to put yourself back together as it did to fall apart.
