    I will make it -- Looking forward to taking my life back

    For sure man, I don't really feel bad. One, the InBody is not super accurate. Two, I look better in the mirror today than 4 months ago and that's the important thing -- BF is just a way to quantify the appearance at the end of the day. The goal is not BF, but rather health & appearance so can't...

    Porn is not an option

    Keep at it my friend, even though you're making great progress there are the occasional random spikes that make you wonder where all that progress went....but it's certainly happened! In another week or two or whatever, you'll be back to not feeling such urges again. You got this

    I will make it -- Looking forward to taking my life back

    Day 707 no porn Daily meditation Daily cold showers So couple things -- apparently I miscounted the days somewhere on no porn! I know this because my journal began in May 15, 2022 and 730 days (2yrs) gets me to May 15, 2024. So counting backwards from May 15 to today implies 707 days. Not sure...

    Porn is not an option

    Good stuff man, below 200lb! Also just back from vacation so saw your other posts -- I feel you on the urges, they come and go and it's frustrating but it's magical when you realize the urges become weaker and weaker over time. Until you get to the point where they're like 10% of what they used...

    I will make it -- Looking forward to taking my life back

    Day 690 no porn Daily meditation Daily cold showers Just got back from vacation, pretty exhausted actually. MO'd once a few days ago to this girl who was a little chunky that I had failed to get it up to in the 1st year of my reboot. MO was quite strong, think I'm really ready to take that next...

    Day 684 no porn Daily meditation Daily cold showers Starting today going to take a week or so off MO. Headed out on vacation so might not post a ton this week. Going to be careful on my food choices though, last thing I want is to derail my weight loss progress

    Porn is not an option

    Very proud of you my man! We're back in the triple digits baby Keep it up, can't wait for you to get to 4 digits! Btw I listened to a pod by Tony Robbins and Theo Von (highly recommend, it was incredibly insightful) and he mentioned the idea that you should NOT think of yourself as an addict...

    Day 682 no porn Daily meditation Daily cold showers Also MO'd last night to another girl from the bar who was maybe a 6. Anyway, don't mean to harp on the point or try to rate women too much or anything, just noting it down for later reference. I'm really glad I did this 60+ day no MO streak...

    Day 681 no porn Daily meditation Daily cold showers MO'd again last night to a random girl I saw while out at a bar. Btw a completely average girl, honestly a little fat (no judgement though!) -- I just bring this up because my MO was very good. Previously prior to this last 60+ day reboot, I...

    Finally, I'm doing this…

    Hey man -- a little unsolicited but I think you and I had a similar experience. I also tried to go for a long time no MO, but I wonder if it's actually a tougher battle for those who are recovering? I think an initial 90-100 days no PMO reboot makes complete sense, but after that it might be...

    I will make it -- Looking forward to taking my life back

    Thank you my man. Yeah I'm not punishing myself over this, at some point when the body is crying for release it's just so easy to slip into fantasizing since your brain is just looking for an outlet -- which is fine until it isn't as it creeps into porn territory. This was happening quite a bit...

    Day 678 no porn Daily meditation Daily cold showers Some good and bad news. Bad news is that I MO'd last night, just could not get to sleep. I got so horny that I started looking up pics and random crap (which I hadn't done at all since starting the no MO) so I think the no MO was maybe more...

    I will make it -- Looking forward to taking my life back

    100% man, some stuff you're better off eliminating entirely (hard drugs, porn, etc) while others are fine in moderation (alcohol, TV, etc) Yessir, my senior year of high school I'm pretty sure I was around 12-13%. I think I was around 13-14% when I was 20 or so as well, so I know it's doable...
