The Lord of the Rings Challenge

40 days – You try to pass through Caradhras but the PMO forces were strong there. You make a detour to the Dwarven Realm of Moria.

Super beat from work today. I attended a webinar afterward, really love the mindset of this dude. I now want to do a hypnosis session before bed, so I'll head out now.

 

Day 428

 

I'am sorry to hear that, my condolences brother such a huge loss for you and your family
Take care of yourself.

 

aw thank you so much that is very sweet!!
I'm super grateful for this challenge, it makes the whole journey so much more fun

 

Day 21

 

Thankfully I’ve not had a wet dream since I first went through puberty, but I appreciate your advice should it happen!

 

Day 421 no PMO. Yesterday was a good day and all is well on my progress toward 500 days. On the weight loss journey I have hit the skids a bit. Yesterday started out good but then after indulging in the free chips at the Mexican restaurant last night I went ahead and binged on a full pint of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream when I got home. It’s really no different than a PMO lapse and then a binge for the next several days. I need to get a grip before I lose all my progress. It would be nice to have my stuff together in all aspects of my life.

 

Good luck brother!
just remember that keeping it fun for both of you and seeing the "friend" part of "girlfriend" would really help yourself stay on track to keep not too stressful. everything else would just follow from there.

 

Day one

Having some relationship problems, not only about porn (but some are definitely porn related).

At the same time this makes me really want to escape and watch porn, and an even darker thought is rising because of it. That if we really would split, there would literally be nothing stopping me from PMOing all day long and taking all the drugs in the world until I overdose on porn, weed and booz and die. Sounds extreme, but I truly feel urges on that level.

And while some depressed part of my soul wants that, another part knows that holy shit I don’t want that. So my dark side is thinking that even if we’ll end up splitting, I must be in a better place so it would not completely break me.

It’s like hoping for the best and preparing for the worst. Because by preparing for a breakup I would gain more power to stop this addiction, that would only help the relationship itself to be stronger. So it’s sad, but not completely sad.

 

Don't let the relationship fall apart. Try to resolve the issues by sitting and talking together. Most of the relationship issues arise because of miss-understandings. Breaking apart should be the last of the last option.
Understand each other's issues and talk it through.
Just telling this as I have been through it last year and it's very painful. "There is always a solution to every problem"

 

Brother, we embark on this journey because it is supposed to be difficult. Of course PMOing would have been simpler. Fighting those urges and fantasies is staring those demons down, it is Gandalf shouting "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!"

You can do this. Hang in there.

 

day 9 on this quest. Uruk-hai reporting. I expect by the time day 14 comes around and I graduate to the next character, I should be jacked and ripped like the Uruk-hai who killed Boromir.

I received a lot of encouragement yesterday for joining this challenge and embarking on this journey with you. Thank you all. If I was a ring-bearer, I know you would help to see me through.

yesterday was thankfully a good day. I lifted weights in the evening, like that Uruk-hai did behind the scenes. It felt very good although I regret to tell you I will not be as ripped as him anytime soon lol. I passed out at night and I dreamt that I was a rock climber. I have never been rock climbing in my life, and here I am on a LOTR challenge. *facepalm* lol

Stay strong out there, brothers and sisters. I bid you stay strong. One hour at a time. One minute at a time.
God is with us.
