Alright guys, Jesus was in the desert 40 days with no food or water, was then tempted by the devil to make bread out of stone when he was probably as vulnerable as he could have been - and Jesus totally dissed him! I'm not saying I can dis the devil like Jesus can, but Jesus can step in when we are vulnerable.
So here's the challenge - 40 days - no porn, no mb! Who's with me?
We'll keep it open until 8/20. Peace&Happiness

I'm in. Absolutly, 100% yes! I am just begining my 10th clean day and to get to 40 would be great. I set my first target for 1 week and having passed that, 40 days could be realistic now. I'm really taking it a day at a time. It's important to stay present and in integrity just for today. Good luck.

Coming to the end of day 10. I'm feeling a mild urge to act out but it'll pass. I feel much gratitude for another clean day.

Hey sign me up! I'm on the 100 day thread as well....currently on day 18... But I can be part of both threads right? 40 is a good number.... I'm almost half way there.... Maybe this can be like a first step....for those of us that make it to 40, perhaps we can then transfer over to the 100 day thread?
Keep up the fight everyone.....

Guys - Since we're all at different points, maybe we should report our graduation dates for the 40 days. Mine would be Sept. 25th. Graduating just means we move on to bigger, better things while continuing to be free from p & mb.

Cool! We have our graduation dates. If you guys would stick with me on this thread at least until I hit mine since I am the last one, that would be greatly appreciated.
Now on to checking in. Do you want to do a post every day to report, or should we do every other day?

I'm with you all the way Brighterside. I intend to post everyday, even if it is just a short hello. I feel for me every day is important but I trust everyone will do what's right for them.

The temptation is so damn strong these days. My co-workers seem to wearing more revealing clothing every day!! Luckily I've been able to avert my gazing eyes today, better than yesterday at least.
Stay strong everyone. We are better than the addiction.
