The Lord of the Rings Challenge

Day 2 done,
low urges today, have a nice day brothers!

 

last day

The goal was 90 days and now the goal is 180 days

 

This is great, need to watch it again to understand it completely. Thanks for this..

 

Day 1 completed. All going well till now..

 

24 days
Time flies this time ! It's crazy how I've been away back for 4 months and now I feel more back on track that ever. Thank God !

 

Day 22 trod on!

 

Checking in for day 4

 

I think I'm making progress with everything but porn (and masturbation). So maybe it's better to focus on everything else and don't expect results that don't come, all the time.
Today I decided to do a little daily ritual that shall help me to stay clean. But, as a first step, I will rather focus on doing the ritual itself. It's crucial that I stick to it and don't change it or complicate it and practice it, until it becomes habitual.
So for now I'll stop to actively count clean days and I also no longer strive to become a Hobbit or more.
Or as some say: control what you can

But I hope to soon be able to control what hurts me most ...

 

Checking in day 151.

 

Day 103

An urge-free day, at long last! Weather was gorgeous here today, and overall just feeling more confident now that I’ve started going to the gym - could just be the endorphins but I’m finding a lot of strength in knowing that I’ve implemented a strict routine as the foundation of my day.

I’ve shared this quote before but after reading today’s posts I feel called to share it again; don’t be someone that’s trying not to PMO, be someone that simply doesn’t PMO. Don’t allow PMO to control even a second of your life, it’s not worth it and it never will be - yes, each day can be a battle, but each day clean is a victory.

Congratulations @Slider8 on reaching 150 days, you’re a huge inspiration to me my friend!

 

Day checking in:
I left again all the restrictions cause gives me more tension and little slips.
Trying another strategy.

 

Check in day 198

 

Day 44,

Out from the tailspin. Two days were spent fishing but I did not cycle into PM. It is a good feeling even though I have been eating a bit more on this stretch (while keeping up with exercise).

Still in a somewhat imbetween state that where I want to make all of the healthy decisions but I limit myself. I think it has to do a bit with burnout and other excuses that I tell myself.

All in all good tho. Happy to still be on a streak with only one hiccup!

 

Starting out Day 2. One step at a time

 

Day 2/14 complete.

I apologize for missing a few daily check-ins. I'm home visiting my family during Holy Week, but ironically, I have much less time to myself (for things like NoFap) when I'm on break, because my family expects me to spend as much time as I can with them. Which is understandable, but I do enjoy having a little space to keep up with other parts of my life. Anyhow, I digress.

My last couple streaks, I've had a serious problem with peeking. I'm a bit surprised by this because in the past it hasn't been a huge issue for me. A lot of it boils down to me succumbing to my own curiosity, not triggers. I need to work on the part of my brain or mental power which will allow me to say that I don't need to look at this and I shouldn't, even if I want to.

St. Ignatius of Loyola, pray for us!
