Hi Chevra,
I had a slip yesterday.  Looks at somethings I should not have.  Posting here to help create some additional accountability.

So, just had another slip by looking at something not very clean.  Also, I started to touch myself, before stopping.  From experience, I know these behavior are not good and can lead down a dangerous road.  I'm not deluding myself into thinking "no big deal".  So B"N  I will post an update every day until next Shabbos.  With Hashem help, we will get past this roadblock.

So I'm a little surprise that I have to come back so soon to post, but an hour ago, I was hit with a mini-lust attack.  Once this happens, logics goes out the window.  Luckily, I had the right mind to walk away form the computer and run some errands until the lust subsided.  It is incredible, how once under the spell, i was actually entertaining breaking my clean streak.  A streak that I've worked so hard to achieve....  A gut shabbos.  Im"h will post another update.

Overall Shabbos/Sunday went well.  Has some images pop in my thoughts, but tried not to focus on them.  In general, the weekend are a lot easier since I generally do not spend much time by the computer.  Will continue to check in daily this week.

Thanks Starting and YG for the kind messages. 

Had a slip the past couple of days, so checking back in to strengthen myself.  Will I"h post further thoughts later.

Hi Chevra,

Sorry for not following up on my prior post.  I had an another slip, which reminded me to get back on.  Im"h will check in daily for the rest of this week to help get me back on track.

In general, I find that from time to time a thought will pop into my head "I've got this conquered".  Usually within a few days I will feel the lust starting to expand within me and come to the harsh reality that this is a battle that will never truly go away.  A battle that will constantly require fine tuning its strategy to overcome the oncoming challenges.
