I Know I Mentioned That I Chewed Outlaw Cigars. Get This, The Price For One Pack Was$6.66.I'm Not Very superstitious But Talk AbOut A Sign From Satan!

My addict brain would just buy two packs. Problem solved.

EXACTLY!
That's what I did. Mainly because the girl behind the counter would run off when I bought one. But the change for 2 packs paid with a $20 was, wait for it...$6.66!



Then I would go for three & burn a whole $20. :P

It's been 50 days today.
I conquered a demon last two days with a 6 hour solo road trip and stay in a hotel. On top of that, I had to give a lecture to 14 of my peers. All in all it went well and I didn't even come close to caving.
Bigger test next week as I fly out to Vegas for 3 day seminar and as soon as I get back go to a buddie only weekend. Gonna be a test but I'm up for it. I'm proud of my quit. I'm down right annoying about it!
I'm not meaning to sound cocky. I know I'm one bad decision from being the nic whore's number one piss boy.
I don't really seem to think of nic like a lot of my bros do on here. I don't think of running to her when I've had a rough day or if I get in a fight with the wife. It wasn't something I used as a crutch or to help me through something because it was omnipresent. I was more akin to a tumor that I didn't realize was such a disgusting part of me until I got it removed.
I know I am an addict and prone to slip back to my old ways if I do not remain diligent, but the oral fixation part of this whole thing is the hardest for me. I feel like I ought to try phasing out the Smokey Mtn and seeds. I really feel like I haven't totally quit as long as I continue using them. I know they help but at some point you gotta toss the crutches and start walking on your own, right?
Anyway, don't really feel like 50 is anymore special than any other day but a nice "0" to update my thread on. Everyday...same old shit. But now that shit is QUIT!
Thank you to all of the people I have had the pleasure of interacting with on this site. This brotherhood of quit is heap powerful medicine...and I like good medicine!

Half chubs are pretty bad ass Doc. However, they require daily stroking and continuous lubricant or they will shrivel back into your foreskin. Proud as fuck for you. Give yourself a little stroke on the plane ride to vegas. As for the Fake, seriously, don't fret. At some point you will just not want it anymore. That point is different for everybody, but don't be surprised if you use Fake off and on for the first year.

50 days is good- congrats and keep it up! You're doing it right! I can sure relate to the travel triggers. What I realize now tho is that the freedom from all the hassles of ensuring regular fixes is really great- ant craves that pop up pale in comparison. Nice 50, see you at 51.
Took my freedom back October 23, 2013.

Here's an article that taught me a lot and made me hate the addiction: Nicotine Addiction 101-- newer quitters check it out-- and vets do it too, to breathe new life into your quit!

24 Quitters I have met: Ihatecope, >Pinched<, T-Cell, grizzlyhasclaws, Canvasback, BaseballPlayer, Cbird65, ERDVM, BradleyGuy, Ted, Zeno, AppleJack, Bronc, Knockout, MookieBlaylock, Rdad, 2mch2lv4, MN_Ben, Natro, Lippizaner, Amquash, ChristopherJ, GDubya, Mogul. Each one was a real honor and continues to fortify my resolve to stay QUIT!

Doc, awesome job. And posting like that is how we quit. I stopped using Jakes one day because I just didn't want to spend the money and my oral fixation took about two days to get over. I think we are all different, but just please remember this. We are here to quit nicotine, not smokey mountain so use what you need too, and don't lose sight of "never again". For any fucking reason. Proud to be quit with you Doc.

Crushing it Doc -- nice work, and great perspective about your (our) quit thus far. Nothing wrong with an increasing level of confidence each time you overcome a trigger event, especially since you're mindful of how quickly it can be erased. Keep it up, and look forward to seeing you on roll in the AM, bro.

Be proud of your number. That's your win column and your job is to run up the score. There is no mercy rule here.

Be cocky, be arrogant, but be respectful. Know that you can beat the nic bitch down any f'n day…you've done this 51 days in a row now. However, respect that, she's just a single $5 dollar bad decision away.

You're crushin' it Doc. You own this trip…and if you need a lifeline shoot me a PM.

Bigger test next week as I fly out to Vegas


The poison doesn't have some secret plan when you get to Vegas. Take it one day at a time my friend. ^^^^ will be the same as today. You will win again by doing the same things you are doing today. Sure,, it's ok to prepare your thought and get yourself mentally ready for a big trip, but get ready to also enjoy yourself. Take the trip. Bring it on! Look forward to another chance to make your quit stronger.

Keep in mind that the day you go here or there will be no different than today. You will win that day, just like today. When you go here or there post roll like you've done for 50+ and keep your word. Proud to be quit with you.

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.
