Thoughts about displacement

Hey people, I'm new. I used to be addicted to soda, specifically cola. About Four months ago, my doctor issued me an ultimatum: eat healthier or go on medication.

I successfully weaned myself off of it with a three prong strategy: a caffeine pill which became more and more infrequent, a decreasing amount of sugar until it almost all came from fruit (which admittedly, i still eat a ton of) and most importantly, a water bottle that i clip to my belt so i have no excuse when I'm thirsty.

And it worked.

So my problem is that pmo is built into my routine and you know, cravings. I've been thinking about displacing pmo with the gym, but that's not nearly as convenient. Has anyone had any similar success with displacement? What did you sub pmo out for?

 

Reading, working out, writing, and strategy games like chess and magic are all things i love to do.

I'm also really capable wordsmith, not to toot my own horn. But over the last year my drive has diminished.

When i feel urges, its usually in the early morning or late at night. I'm usually on my computer. I'm just bored and stressed out. It's just so convenient

Okay, so here i vow. When i feel the urge, I'll start writing instead. If that doesn't work, I'll try chess or a pokemon battle simulator. And as a last resort, mtgo
