Nice going MosesY I am somewhere around day 135 or 140 I would have to look but I am still not ready to post in the success section I really want to be sure. I'll admit every once in a while I too celebrate with a nice shot of whiskey or a bottle of good wine perhaps a steak. As I have said before I am remembering some of the finer things in life and enjoying them when a year ago I would try it and for some reason it didnt feel right almost as if i hadnt really earned it But things are different now Keep up the fight and hit 100 days

97 days porn free. I am off work with pay today due to COVID-19. I am moving a couch today with help from a friend. I plan on doing my laundry and grocery shopping today as well then the rest of the weekend if free time. I plan on getting out my wood lathe and turn a handle for a mallet. I think working on projects like this makes it less likely for me to look at porn; it gives me a place to focus my energy instead of looking at porn.

I am free from porn now for over 9 million seconds. I believe the internet is the great harlot spoken of in Revelation 17. Porn is an abomination to God, especially anal sex. It is amazing how far into porn I had sunk, wasting hours per day and thousands of dollars. I feel better about myself now, enjoy the little things more. I nice sunny day and the trees turning green and the freshly mowed yard all touch my heart now where before if I was not looking at porn I felt bored and useless. I believe a person needs some form of higher power to permanently overcome porn. I basically had to soften my hard heart and only God could do that for me. I know if I was relying on my own intelligence to quit porn I would not be able to do it.

The Key is not so much to not look at porn to fill your time but to have other more meaningfull things to fill your time with I have to admit the only time I really think about it is now when I come here and read and write. The rest of my time is spent on much more worthwhile endeavors But at the moment I think maybe it is a security blanket and if it keeps me away from porn than so be it
cheers

Freedom from porn now for 145 days. am watching Sandra Bullock and Julia Roberts movies on Amazon Prime now. I have a good day ahead of me today (Saturday). My laundry is almost done, I have an appointment at 7:20 am to get my hair cut, grocery shopping after that and then lanterns after that. It is so nice to have extra money. I don't have to worry about how much I spend on gas and groceries, I can buy another lantern once a week, and still have money to put in savings. I don't have any idea how many thousands of dollars I spent on cam girls.

I am free from porn now for 157 days. Going for 200 and then 365. I am going to work this morning, normally I would be surfing porn before work but this morning I am watching movies on Amazon Prime, no temptation to look at porn. Once I read "Your Brain on Porn" it just showed me how much damage it was doing and I made the conscious decision not to look at porn and am doing very well with that.

Congratulations on your growing streak! I'm at the very beginning of the journey and looking for motivation. How do you feel different, how has life changed (if at all) since you gave up PMO?

I am porn free now for 162 days. It feels good. My roommate is now my best friend. Instead of hiding out in my room we talk to each other, drink and smoke together, and sometimes go on road trips. Yesterday I bought two large porterhouse steaks and early this morning I made a big bowl of potato salad to eat with the steaks. We will feast like kings this afternoon. I would not have had the money to do this when every penny I had was spent on cam girls. This was a secret so I had to avoid people, my eyes downcast, my shoulders slumped, defeated. I am free from that now; I look people in the eye, I care about them, I have overcome Satan's defeat.

I remember when you first checked-in here, MosesY. You really struggled and fought hard. The transformation in your mental health, confidence and strength is profound and uplifting. I'm truly happy for you, Sir. I hope that the road stays smooth for you, and those Coleman lamps all come up gleaming

I have been clean now for 6 months and 8 days. It is a great feeling. Zero urges to look at pornography. I am working on a lantern this morning, had a very hard time getting the valve out of the fount but it is loose now. I am waiting for it to cool before taking it all the way out and cleaning it.
