Self-Denial

k, so this week (Monday to Friday), I'm not going to allow myself to use the internet at all, to see what happens. which brings up this question:

have you ever denied yourself access to something you love, for any reason?

Yes i have done it to the computer before and pop

Yes, many times. But, of course, it never lasts for a very long time if I'm not doing it for a really clear, and good reason. Like, not absently chewing on my finger/nails. It never works. But that's all right, because I LIKE chewing on them.


:D

Never -- hedonism am goal.

Yes. It was a person.

Yeah, but I keep forgetting I'm doing it and end up putting it off another week.

i gave up chocolate, video games, and masturbation for lent

I gave up McDonalds, KFC, and most of the other huge, chain, fast-food places.

It wasn't hard though, I really have no desire to ever eat at those places again.

I tried to give up FFXI, but that didn't work out. :p

I gave up soda when Nicky was giving up caffeine. I did it so I could be cool like Nicky. Didn't work.

Yes, because it's good for me :(

Only for like a minute though and then I go back to whatever cos' I gave up :p

I've denied myself of most human contact for the last six years or so. It gets harder to maintain after a few years, and it's really taking a lot out of me now.

I've given up giving things up.

Nice yummy pizzas and chocolate and stuff or other not so healthy food I loved when I was losing weight...and umm...games that I really wanted to play when I knew I had work to do. That's it really..I think.

No double cheese burgers from Burger King or McDonalds for me anymore. I barely even let myself have anything there anymore. Not only is it extremely fatty, I also get zits from eating those burgers because they're so greasy.
