A Progressive Challenge-A different kind of challenge- all levels

Day 11/14! My longest streak has been 4 days, so I think I'm doing pretty well! Also, haven't watched P for about a month and I feel great! I've never felt better, actually. Really, really close to that sweet 2 week mark, and looking forward to it.
So, short story (hoping you'll like this, @DerNeuMann). I'm in this youth group that happens every few Mondays. Tonight, we all took a weird something-or-other from our house, wrapped it up, threw it in with the others, and then randomly chose another item. We were sitting in a circle, with all the presents in the middle. There was this really cute girl I'd been glancing at the face of once in a while throughout the meeting (2nd time seeing her there, 1st time in a few weeks, though). I thought she was pretty the 1st time, but I totally forgot about her in between meetings. Anyways... yeah, pretty girl. **Potential trigger** she was wearing yoga pants. So, she walks into the middle of the circle to pick her present (facing away from me, coincidentally) and fully bends over. Old me would've enjoyed the view, but the me I am today hardly felt tempted to look, just looked instead at the present she picked out and the excitement on her face. Made eye contact and shared a smile with her about 4 times throughout the rest of the session, and I even talked to her a bit after. I know for a fact if I looked when she bent over none of that would've happened. It was a good night

 

1/30 and busy for the week. Weekend I lose focus. I will work on that though

 

I feel you, man. Weekends are hard. Just try to keep yourself busy during them, it's especially nice to put yourself in a situation where you literally can't relapse at a time of day when you're normally feeling urges (for example, spending the night sleeping 5 feet away from a friend). Go for a walk or a drive. If you live in the country, drive to the city. If you live in the city, drive to the country. Play music, run, go to restaurants, take walks.. Just.. Get out of your damn room! Lol
Plan for the weekend while you're focused during the weekdays, so even when you lose focus on weekends you have plans that'll keep you on track. The equivalent of bringing a friend who doesn't drink to a party while you're still sober so he can drive you home when you're drunk (not condoning or chastising drinking, it's just a good analogy).

 

1/30. For the last two weeks I have had this terrible cough, so I cannot go out, exercise and so on. I have to fight mostly in my head, without any possible distractions. I cannot avoid electronics because I work on my computer and I need to be online. But I have relapsed only once, at the end of the first week. It was my first try and my PA addiction caught me completely unprepared. I am not scared but I know I have to be very careful and work on my habbits.
I would like to thank you, guys, for all your honesty, guidance and everyday courage. I couldn´t do this without you. Thanks a million!

 

Yesterday i just forgot to mention my 2nd sucessful day and today is the third i hope i will make it.
Day 3

 

Day 20!
Life's good

 

You can do that, brother. Your brain, it´s not you. You want to live the real life, get to know your real destiny. Not to hunch in front of your computer and do PMO. Let your weakness be a source of your strength. Tomorrow you´ll be able to say: "This my 4th! I´m sure I will make it!"

 

Great streak! One more day and you'll have 3 weeks in your pocket! Well done, my friend!

 

@Deth Yes, Im starting a new streak Day 1

 

I'm about to finally get my driving license in the next couple of weeks and then, I'm planning to find a new job
(I'm a student right now, so nothing much happens lol)

 

I’m on day 8, this is the day I usually fail. Wish me luck!
