Test myself: Week 1 results and current projections

General
I decided to write today, and here's what I wrote:
Warning, there will be some TMI in this journal. You've been warned.
Well. ouo I think I did reasonably well with the first week of my little challenge to myself.
As a reminder, these are my challenges:
1. No porn. (with one exception)
2. No masturbation.
3. Try to work on the "100 themes" challenge I found.
4. Cut down on junk food.
I did great with all four of these. Left everything SFW, didn't stroke it, put out four (crappy) sketches, and kept under the serving size for the bag of chips I so adore...
...Until the weekend. Saturday hit and I broke. :c
I think goal four broke first. Saturday night I polished off that bag of chips, which was like 4x the serving size.
One probably broke later that night, along with two. I peeked at a bit of porn, and then yeah.. Sunday was pornfest. x-x Did not masturbate to orgasm though, which is what I was intending by goal two. So, "technically", my goal with number two is still remaining standing. Been doing fairly well today about not looking at anything.
I do not consider goal three to be broken. I have taken a break for three days, but I'll do some more scribbles tonight. Haven't been up to drawing number five of the 100 themes challenge, and I think I may skip it in favor of finding something better in the list.
As someone said in my last journal, maybe I was biting off a bit too much to chew. I may drop one or two of these and try them some other month. As it stands, goals one and two are the least important, but most tempting to break. I may drop them in favor of focusing harder on goals three and four. Will try one more week and see where it gets me.

FA+

Thinking about it, I technically didn't make a full week, but eh, I'm still trying, somewhat. I'm already bored of this. *shrug*
Agreed with the fappin'. I just kinda find myself doing it idly, not even for a purpose. Devil's Hand syndrome? :P One hand on the mouse, where's the other one to go?
