The Lord of the Rings Challenge

Gladly
Here is the website for the challenge. There are 5 medals to earn and you can earn them any way you want, walking, running, exercising. Some people also use them to track their addiction journeys. I've done some challenges from them in the past and it's motivating me so much more to get moving
It's just nice to get a pretty medal as a reward I guess ^^

 

Thanks a lotr
Just the right thingy for this group! Really awesome

 

Day 1 again, like most of my relapses, the urges started when I'm in social networks. Thinking about to close them. I already log out of them and uninstall them from my phone, but I always log in and reinstall the apps again.
Low urges today

 

Day 9

 

Afternoon of the 18th day.

 

20 days

Yesterday, I seriously considered giving up. But, then, I noticed it was a trap by my memory. I was thinking about the apparent pleasure part of PMO, but forgetting to consider the rest of the package that comes with it. In reality, it's a package of compulsive, unsatisfactory sexual habits.

So, never forget: IT'S A TRAP!!

 

Checking in day 143.

 

Day 95

I genuinely love this thread. I remember being so pleased when I found it over a year ago, and I’m still so grateful that it’s active and thriving with all you lovely people.

No urges today, but found myself in a bad mood. I have two essay deadlines on Monday and my week is looking pretty full, and I think this was the underlying cause of my annoyance. That being said I ordered some protein and creatine today to supplement my diet and exercise routine, hoping this new habit of exercise will bolster my mood!

 

Day 16, all good, and no urges whatsoever

 

Day 14, trod on!

 

This looks awesome, thank you for sharing! I'm totally signing up and going for all five LOTR medals--I did 621 miles in 2021 and will have to step it up just a bit more this year (especially since I haven't done much running or hiking yet in 2022) to get to Mordor.

 

Checking in, feeling overloaded emotionally in general (we keep unearthing more costs and repairs in our house as the remodel progresses, today it's a new water heater and boiler, and the whole family is now wearing sweaters inside and taking cold showers because we have no hot water). But the good news is that I'm staying strong against PMO by letting go of my deep desire for order and cleanliness and routine and just taking one step at a time. I'm trying to walk in gratitude while giving myself permission to recuperate and relax rather than burying my stress in work or hiding my feelings from myself in PMO.

 

Thank you my brother, I will certainly do all I can to keep going on this path!

 

Day 415

 

Day 3 complete!

Hmm. I peeked at pornographic gifs today but I resisted the urge to dive any deeper, opting to get on with my day instead. I can count this as a relapse if y'all think I should but on the whole it felt like more of a victory than a failure. With God's help I've continued defeating the urges that have arisen thoughout the day as a result of that slip.

Since I turned in a paper today, tomorrow I'll finally have time to run again. It'll be the first time in six days and I'm very much looking forward to that.

Blessed Carlo Acutis, pray for us!

 

Day 27

Signed up for a new course today. Other than that I'm pretty tired still, but doing better than normal especially with a scenario going on that usually wrecks me. Urges have been strong though.

 

Day 113 complete

feeling even better

 

4 days.
