4/8/16 (first of all that is an awesome sequence of numbers Day 999 Tomorrow will be great, but today is fantastic. Today I am quit for my 999th day. I never imagined that this quit would change me in the way it has. I am the kind of guy that keeps to himself and does what is necessary with no desire to have attention drawn on me. I also never thought that people I meet through an online community would become such a vital part of my existence. I also thought I was not an addict, I could quit any day that I wanted to...I just never wanted to. Until going to bed one night laying there doing research and reading about KTC and reading the stories...I lurked like a ninja and then finally signed up but had not yet posted roll. The next morning I got up and my routine lead me to packing my tin...thump, thump, thump and then all the sudden I nutted up and quit. Posted roll and it all began. Even then I followed the path but was not 100% bought in. I spent a couple of weeks doing only the minimum (post roll and get the fuck out). Finally one other quitter got me to the chat room and I started to open up. Now I never shut the fuck up or leave my opinion unknown...KTC started a monster. The reason I choose to post this intro today is because yes tomorrow is a big day the 4th digit gets added. Yes this is a big milestone but I am so thankful for today more so than anything. Today I am quit Today I am mentally more stable Today I am a better man Today I have whiter teeth Today I can do work laying on my back without dip spit rolling down my throat or cheek Today I do not spit on retail floors Today my truck does not smell like Copenhagen Today I can function without my crutch Today I do not fear my breath smelling like a dip dragon Today I do not look like I ate some ants Today my gums do not bleed or hurt Today I am not sneaking off to pinch a lip Today I am happy Today I made my promise Today I know I am a addict Tomorrow...well we will just see what tomorrow brings, I have faith that I am strong enough to persevere and be here to see what the day presents for me. Only time will tell, but I now have the tools to face adversity and learn how to overcome that obstacle without a insecticide coated weed. So today I say 'Finger' Nicotine! Not today...move along.
1000 days of quit feels good, enjoy the 999, but remember the 1K
Tomorrow is a big day P! I was just thinking about when I first joined and you were the first one to welcome me, and help me with my fuck up in roll! I wont ever forget your help. It seems like such a small thing now but it firmly set me on the right path that has kept me clean now for 869 days. Thank you for all you do around here! ;Ironman:
I love watching your quit. I learn from you over and over again. You fuel my quit. You sir are one of the foundation building blocks of my quit. I would not be here without you.
As usual, awesome post. Pretty much sums up the journey of your last 999 days...awesome. Congrats!
As much as Mitchell's quit may be the start of something great. I'd rather spend my time congratulating a quitter who has worn the quit badge on his sleeve for as long as I remember. Corey, we've never met, we may never meet, but I'm proud to be quit with you brother! Congrats on the grand.
999 is awesome. I'll quit to that. And I'll quit with you tomorrow for your comma.
I'm a big fan of 999. Great reflection and congrats brother! B)B
It's almost as good as a 6969 with a feely over the bridge. Just saying. Quit with ya brother. OH, and by the way, what a day to have your intro raided by a new quitter. Mitchell is a blessed quitter. I quit with Pinched and Mitchell.
1,000 Man what a day. You should feel 10' tall. Cause I think only the biggest baddest winners quit one day at a time and post with their team daily. Just like you do. It is an honor to quit with you today. You personify the values of this site. And you've also reaped the rewards that only winners understand. Enjoy this huge victory. And the peace that results from it.
Not much I can add here, proud to have been on this journey with you brother. Our flock may not be the biggest but we are strong together. Congrats Corey on 1,000 days of quit but most of all for being quit with me today.
congrats Corey proud to quit with you
Congrats on 1,000!!! Thanks for your support.
Can't say how much of an honor it is to quit with you and share a milestone say- big congrats on 4 digits! You are a cornerstone of this place and my own quit. Thanks Corey! Comma time my brother! Congratulations to one badass quitter!

Comma time my brother! Congratulations to one badass quitter! Any quitter can learn from pinched, if you are day one he can teach you about accountability. He sought out previous October groups and quit with them so he was more accountable. If you've been quit longer than Pinched you can learn how to go fight through any adversity by force of will and utilization of resources. We can all learn life lessons from him on staring life straight in the eye and facing and learning that if you can't do it alone gather your team, form a team, do what it takes to win and do it again tomorrow. Thanks for being my quit brother, and congrats on that comma, you've earned it. Proud to be your brother in quit.

Quit 7/16/2013 -- Oct '13 Duck Fips
My HOF Speech
"As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another" - Proverbs 27:17
"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." - Srans
"Ah yes. The Kodiak bear. For 15 years I used to hump that fucking bear. Near the end I was going through 2 cans a day. Fuck that asshole bear. I don't own a gun and i've never been to Alaska but if I ever end up there I will kill one of those mother fuckers. Gun or no gun. Ill rain blows upon his face and drop kick him in the dick if he stands up." - Diesel2112

I could quit all by myself if I was stranded on an island without any nicotine...
Quitting the KTC way: Learn it, Live it; LOVE it!
"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." srans

Hitting Home
On July 15, 2013 I made a conscious decision to quit. That decision was all mine to make and I did just that, I have enjoyed meeting and helping others in their quit journey along the way; however, for some reason here of late I have done just the minimums of posting roll and hell some days I just plain forget all together to even do that. I can't really explain it other than to said I became complacent. No I have not caved nor is that even an option but I have missed roll and that is my daily promise also rule #1 around here. I am still an addict, I may always be an addict. I need to be better at reinvesting the few minutes a day to KTC and all of my fellow quitters here, I say that not as a selfless act but also as a selfish act because I need this more than I thought I did.
I also want to state that two days ago I lost a childhood friend of mine to a heart attack. I am not yet 40 years old nor was he but he is gone and gone in a flash without a sign. This is the first ever friend of mine to die of natural causes; so it hits me especially hard. I have buried many a friend and soldier along the way but this well frankly it scares the living shit out of me. A little over a year ago I decided to start chasing my new addiction triathlons and since I have completed one full distance Ironman and 5 half Ironman races along with a few other races. I sign up for 10 and 15k run for training and expect to finish them strong each time. I eat better, I train, I work out and I listen to what my body is trying to tell me.
Now that may all sound great but what I have done is failed to be a real friend to others. With a busy work and travel schedule, a heavy training regimen and kids it is nearly impossible to be a friend too. Well fuck that today is the day that I am taking back some of my time and working to become a better man, a better friend and a better brother. Though I am a firm believe in the one act of kindness a day ploy I think this should just be the normal for all Americans. Not today, today for me is all about calling one old friend a day just to say hello. Nothing really to share or talk about, no agenda, no plan just simply hello. Not a text message, not a Facebook post, not a #tweet, not a Instagram image, not a Meme...simply "hello" hell, maybe even a "thank you". Now for those of you from KTC whose phone number I have I should warn you I have a new number for myself but I still have yours so when you see an unknown number show up it just might be me, just calling to say hello.
If I don't call you...well I don't have your number or my list of contacts is so deep that you are on the waiting list. So with the later being of a high likelihood, I will at a minimum make a KTC Post to say hello to all my brothers and sisters in quit. Without you assholes I would not have posted 1,256 days quit today so hello and thank you!
>P<

>P< Condolences on losing your friend. It is always a tragedy when we lose someone close.
I have always said we need to continue to force our self to learn each day. We have come so far, just keep it up and move forward each day with something learned so that we never go back.
Congrats on those triathlons. A huge accomplishment to finish them, and my utmost respect in doing so.
just never forget those who helped you, who became a part of your family in getting to where you are. It could be 50 people, it could be 5. But it is those who you are closest with, that will be there for you and keep you clean.
be good my friend, and Merry Christmas, as there will be angels watching over you and your family this year.
