Best wishes for your success!

Great job Steve! Wish you the best in staying off it.

When I started back in the day it was $0.25 a tin. When it got to $0.55 I gave it up cuz it cost to much.

Blindjimme · 09-01-2009, 09:30 AM

Positive thoughts for you brother. You can do it!

King James · 09-01-2009, 09:45 AM

congrats! I quit a few months ago and has been going pretty well so far

rizzle · 09-01-2009, 10:26 AM

I'm in the process of getting off of it myself. Hardest thing I've ever done. I've been using some sort of chewing tobacco/snuff for about 30 years. Good luck bro!

I'm using this to get over the habitual part of it.

Way to go Steve ! ... Keep it up

I gave up a serious Red Man habbit back in the early 90's when I started getting black spots in my mouth ...It was Haaaard, And to this day I still look long at those pouches ...But I don't think at this point in life I want to walk around with a cud UNDER my teeth

I used this to cure my habit of beef jerky

Hows it going Bro?

groogs · 09-01-2009, 08:25 PM

Good for you Steve, now you will have more money for smokes.

shilala · 09-01-2009, 08:56 PM

Congratulations, brother!!!

I've been dipping or chewing scrap since I was about 8. Gives me about 34 years.
I love it. It totally owns me. I tried to quit a couple times. It'd be easier to quit being stupid.

Skywalker · 09-02-2009, 12:05 AM

Good Luck MOBS!!!

GTCanuk · 09-02-2009, 06:49 AM

I chewed Skoal for 40 years and quit 5 or 6 years ago. When I started, it was $.25/can, too. However, I still use Smokey Mountain (wintergreen) fake chew. I kicked the physical addiction but, I guess, not the "habit". When you've had a "flavor" and a "lump" in your mouth for 40 years, it's hard not to have something in there. Gum only goes so far.

The best advice I can give is: never, ever say to yourself, "well, that was easy enough to quit, I think I'll just have a "celebration" chew." Bam, you'll be hooked, again. I no longer have the urge to buy a can of real chew but still like the flavor and feeling the fake stuff gives me.

I have been using the Smokey Mountain. It seems to really help.

Good luck with it. From watching a friend of mine who dipped since he was literally an early teen, it can be a challenge but is certainly doable. My pal has been Cope-free for about ten years. He'll go through a large bag of sunflower seeds during a baseball game, though.

shvictor · 09-03-2009, 03:51 PM

Its been a week today...Getting easier

Keep it up, Steve. Best of luck on the journey.
