Good work bigo, jump on board, but don't do it if your "trying to kick it", do if you ARE GONNA KICK IT, QUIT IT, THATS IT.

Keep it up guys. I went out and bought a can just now. Been clean of dip since Thursday night. I did it to prove to my roommate that I can carry this unopened can around and not indulge in it. Its tough but getting easier! Keep at it guys

How long u plan on carrying around that full can river????

You guys get some fake mint chew a lot of stores sell it . You can use it to get over the Nicotine I found it help huge when i quite 1 year ago . After I got over the nicotine withdraws I quit the habit by going trapping and leaving the mint snuff at home . You can also order it . Hang in there it will get easier

Bad idea buying a can. Good Luck to you.

Sure is a lot of power and self determination being shared on this thread. Keep it up as we are all pulling for each other!

I'd ditch the full can man!

Why tempt yourself that way? Hang in there...and get rid of that can!

TrappingHardcore, that's where I started. I was 16 and a buddy gave me a pinch. Let me tell you, he's still a friend and we actually work together to this day. That was 17 years ago. I want to punch him in his face this week!!! Let me tell ya, this is MISERABLE trying to quit. Not to mention, my supervisor at work just told me about his father who died of mouth cancer. He said he went to the doctor because his cheek was sore. The doctor said he had about 3 months, and sure enough 3 months later he was being laid to rest. Now, that was an aggressive cancer, but I don't really want to chance it, especially since both my grandfathers have or had cancer from smoking (one passed away many many years ago).

All that said, I am back from the gas station on my dinner break. A giant bag of peppermint twist, and a giant bag of Jolly Ranchers. Who ever mentioned this deserves my gratitude! Thank you! This is helping a lot!

Another day starts, good luck fellas

Riverman, Everyone is different. It can be dangerous to carry. When I quit, I carried a can for nearly a year. I guess it was my security blanket.

Trust me I am quitting this stuff for good. It's been a little over 24 hrs, don't know if it's any easier today r not but I will make it thru the day.

Good job bigo...Kick the can for good!!

You don't need that full can at all. Like I said I chew over 30 years, a pack or more per day. When I laid it down I wouldn't about to put a full pack in my back pocket. I'm on the road or in the woods ever day and if I can you can. One big problem I had was biting my wife head off ever time she said something to me for the first month or two. But she knew I was trying to come off a drug. Good luck to you, ditch the can

i cant wait till this thread is in the past, cause we've all forgotten nicotine and quit!

One foot in front of the other and I'm not looking back... I hope everyone on here encourages each other I would love for everyone in this thread to stick with it!

You're going to need a bigger wagon Riverman, everyone is piling on!

Seriously though, I hope none of you guys falls off.

I never chewed/dipped but smoked a pack a day for thirty plus years, quit eleven years ago.

I never dipped but I did smoke. Started smoking in basic training at Fort Dix, NJ in June of 1965. In the early years I smoked Winston and was smoking close to 2 packs a day. After I got out of the Army I continued to smoke Winton's but did cut back to about a pack a day. Then sometime in the late 80's I switched to Marlboro Lights and reduced my intake to a half a pack a day. Since the early 90's I quit numerous time for periods of up to six months. The downfall was I would bum a smoke from someone and then I could no longer say I went "x" number of days without smoking. On February 21st of this year I quit again. Today makes 40 days without a smoke for me. I do not plan on bumming a smoke this time. From reading this thread it might be harder to quit the dip than to quit cigarette's. I don't think I get angry, but I sure do miss the nicotine. So far I only gained a pound or two.

Tomorrow will be 2 weeks for me,I don't miss it.

Just pulled a batch of deer jerky off the dehydrator, I'm chewing on it, but that's it.
