starting fresh

august 7 journal:
day 32 complete! today was relatively easier! I saw a few triggering things on the internet throughout the day, but I got out of them pretty quickly and was mostly occupied with doing other things. No shower or long restroom stops today, so no major nofap-related events to report. I'm prepared for tomorrow to be harder again, however, as I'll have to take a shower then definitely.
Hoping & praying for an equally successful tomorrow. Good night all.

day 33 complete! Taking a shower today was pretty easy, since it was super cold 90% of the time. I don't think I could've gotten up if I'd wanted to. Not that I did want to; the urges weren't above average going into the bathroom, anyway. Also, I was bored almost none and even didn't get to accomplish everything I wanted to today, so almost no time to let my mind wander to porn. I think those things together helped contribute to keeping away the "chasers" from almost fapping the other day.
So today went pretty well!
Hoping and praying for an equally successful day tomorrow. Good night all.

 

august 9 journal:
day 34 complete! I was very preoccupied today so not much to report. Lots of stuff, none of it relevant to here, haha. Also I'm tired so I want to get to bed quick.
Tomorrow I may not update because I'm going to have a freind spend the night, just so any readers know. I'll update this the next afternoon if I remember.
Good night all. Hoping and praying for a successful day again tomorrow.

 

august 10th journal:
day 35 complete! today was also pretty easy, especially considering I had a friend over most of the day and we played video games and stuff. I'm gonna keep this short again. No major urges, even when I took a shower, but it was a rushed one so I didn't have much time to have them. Hoping and praying for an equally successful tomorrow. Good night.
PS I have a tally marking on my whiteboard keeping track of how many days I've been clean, and I didn't update it tonight so I'm writing this here so I don't forget.

 

august 11 journal:
day 36 complete! I'm pretty exhausted again today. Lots of socializing, which I'm not great at, and a decent amount of physical work. But I had fun, and didn't even think of PMO for most of the day, so it worked out alright. Tomorrow I'll take a shower, so the update may be longer.
Hoping and praying for another successful day tomorrow. 'Night all.

 

august 12 journal:
day 37 complete. Taking a shower today, urges weren't so bad. I read some encouraging success stories on here beforehand, so that seemed to help.
Overall though, today sucked. I was bored for a lot of the day and super tired. Last night I just laid in bed for a good 2.5-3 hours without being able to sleep when I was trying to, so I got less sleep than usual, and that day had been physically tiring so I really needed the rest. Hopefully I'll catch up some tonight, but I have church early in the morning tomorrow so I won't entirely. However, no PMO and few urges, so I guess that's a plus to today.
I'm going to bed now. Good night all; hoping and praying for an equally successful (but less tired) day tomorrow.

 

august 13 journal:
day 38 complete! Today wasn't very hard. Church for the whole morning followed by attending a wedding/being on a cleanup crew for after a wedding took nearly the entire afternoon, and then I got home and took a shower (too worn down to think about fapping, really), played some music, lazed around, and now I'm going to bed. Tomorrow I'm kind busy but not super busy, so hopefully it won't be much harder.
Hoping and praying for an equally successful day tomorrow. Good night.

 

august 14 journal:
day 39 complete! I almost forgot to update tonight; today was a long, super boring day. It was the first day back in school, but we did orientation for classes, so it was only 1/2 a regular day's worth of being there. That plus being tired from yesterday added up to me hitting snooze 4-5 times in the morning and then taking a nap for an hour right when I got home. Hopefully I'm mostly recovered from sleep, but once again I had little time to even think about PMO. I guess that's a good sign.
Hoping and praying for an equally successful day tomorrow. Good night all.

 

august 15 journal:
day 40 complete! today I did a lot of excercise (more than usual on a tuesday, at least) and some school work so I'm pretty tired. I actually have almost no hw this first week but it's gonna pick up pretty quick once some other classes start up. I had a few urges in the shower, but not super bad ones. So today was relatively easy.
Good night all; hoping and praying for another successful day tomorrow

 

august 16 journal:
day 41 complete! Today was pretty easy to resist urges, despite a shower after a super-sweaty-lawnmowing-fest.
however, my ps3 broke down and decided to stop being able to read discs (right as I was about to finish MGS3! ugh!), so I spent a decent chunk of the afternoon trying to fix that. It's reformatting tonight, but if that doesn't work, I'm gonna have to take it apart and clean or possibly replace the disc reader, which sucks because it'll take a while to do. Hopefully it will work though; I got it used which means no warranty which means no sending it back to Sony to get it fixed for free :/
But no-PMO went fine today, so I guess that's a plus.
Hoping and praying for another successful day tomorrow. Good night all.

 

august 17 journal:
day 42 complete. Today was ok-ish. I went to the honors orientation for college, and that seems cool, except we give a big presentation at the end of each semester and I have pretty bad stage fright. But the rest of the stuff looked neat.
I spent a good 4-5 hours taking apart, examining, reassembling, and watching youtube videos on how to fix my ps3. That was no fun, but I've narrowed down the possible problems enough that I was able to order a replacement part just a few minutes ago, before heading to bed. The sucky part is that it cost $50 :/
Hopefully it'll fix the problem though, and if not I can send it back and get my money back. We'll see.
Point in case, I was too busy all day to even think about PMO most of the time. So in that respect it was pretty easy
Hoping and praying for another successful day tomorrow. Good night all.

 

august 18 journal:
day 43 complete. today was pretty easy as I had plenty to occupy myself with throughout the day. I took a shower, and got few urges then (even though it was warm, so I could shave), and the rest of the day was pretty easy too.
If anyone's wondering about the PS3, my replacement part should be coming in within the next few days, but until then I've tried everything I can to fix it. Hopefully that'll do the trick, though.
Hoping and praying for another successful day tomorrow. Good night

 

august 19 journal:
day 44 complete! 1 more day & I'll be half way to 90! Today was relatively easy. The part for my PS3 came in so I got that fixed, and played the ending of MGS3: Snake Eater. Fantastic Game; some of the controls are a little impractical for a stealth game which hindered the gameplay a little but the story was brilliant and the gameplay was pretty great. It's nice to see that Konami actively revised controls to make it better, as in MGSV, which I've also played, I had no problems at all maneuvering the camera or anything.
I've also tried to start up songwriting again recently, which is nice since music is a big passion of mine. I can spend hours doing that easily, which also helps with the no-PMO journey.
So overall, a pretty easy day. Hoping and praying for an equally successful day tomorrow. Good night all

 

august 20 journal:
day 45 complete; I'm halfway to 90, yay!
Pretty busy day again today, so not much time to think about PMO. I did get a medium urge in the shower but brushed it off quickly enough. Did a ton of music today. Started MGS Peace Walker (playing them in storyline-order) ; it's interesting to see all the mechanics they began to develop in peace walker and see how they turned out in phantom pain (the first one i finished).
Not much else to report, and I've got an early morning, so I'll just say good night now. Hoping and praying for an equally successful day tomorrow

 

august 21 journal:
day 46 complete! watched the solar eclipse (at lunch break between classes) today. that was pretty cool, but I'm not as big an astronomy fan as some people. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I was at classes most of the day, so very little opportunity to think about fapping. I didn't take a shower because I didn't feel like it so I'll do that in the morning.
Hoping and praying for an equally successful day tomorrow. Night all.

 

august 22 journal:
day 47 complete! played a good amount of Pokémon Go today for excercise; hoping to do that again some tomorrow. Also, I've been listening to more metal music than usual over the past few days, namely Avenged Sevenfold and In Flames. If anyone else has good metal bands to recommend, feel free to, I can always use more music to listen to
Almost no urges during the shower this morning, so no other news to report. Hoping and praying for another successful day tomorrow. Good night all.

 

august 23 journal:
day 48 complete! not much to report today. It was a pretty lazy one; played lots of video games and played pokémon go some. But I prepared most of what I can for when some more of my classes start, next week. So not wholly unproductive. No shower today, but I'll definitely take one tomorrow after I mow (if it doesn't rain), so hoping that will go fine.
Hoping and praying for another successful day tomorrow. Good night all.

 

ok, thanks. I'm not sure I knew those boards existed I'll start tomorrow since 50 is kind of a landmark day

 

august 24 journal:
day 49 complete. I'll be moving this to the reboot boards tomorrow, I guess, so this is my last day here. Today I had a friend over for most of the afternoon and played games with my brother for most of the rest of the day, so not much time to think about PMO.
When I took a shower, I had gotten a huge splinter stuck in my finger while mowing the yard, so most of my time was spent in pain, trying to dig it out. Pretty much all good now though. But point in case: not much time to think about PMO then either.
I'm heading to bed now. Hoping and praying for another successful day tomorrow. Good night all.
