Nomo is great. If you’re like me, a person who is addicted to Facebook and yet is beginning to feel super exposed every time you post anything personal, and you spend large amounts of time scrolling, try this. My brain seems to \*love\* numbers and keeping track of progress, and that’s exactly what the nomo app does. It’s for addictions, and social media is one of the categories.

Also, I am not promoting this or trying to get you to buy anything. It’s just a helpful app I found.

I have noticed since I started walking 10k steps every day for the last 12 days, my appetite has gone down significantly. Has anyone else experienced that?

Share all your success stories! I love reading them. I just reached day eight, and I am also drinking more water.

I use an app to track my steps and motivate myself, and I got a badge for my three day streak yesterday. I am excited about seeing how walking/running 10k steps a day will have changed my body within the next few months. I plan to do this longterm, I just like thinking this way because I enjoy having small goals to achieve every little bit.

Used to be more fit and I ran regularly. I’d even done half marathons at home just for fun. However, I gained a good amount of weight in 2024 and haven’t been able to get it off, and I’ve not been able to stick to any training plans since then either.

However, for the past two days, I’ve managed to get 10k steps in (technically a bit more due to regular daily activities), which has also helped me finally be able to drink more water without forcing it. In fact, I realized I’d drank a gallon on both days without noticing it until later! And I finally found a snack/meal that fills me up, which is hummus with pita bread. It keeps me full for a while, so I’ve been able to stay in a calorie deficit.

Also, I’ve been getting more involved in my church and my local community lately, in addition to blocking the Facebook web page on my phone. That made it to where I only check it when I’m on my laptop, which is only for a few minutes each day. Plus I’ve barely posted anything personal for about a year now, and all of this is great because I’m kind of addicted to Facebook and doomscrolling.

Sorry for talking so much. This probably doesn’t matter to many of you. I just feel my life is finally heading in a positive direction, and it’s because of God and those amazing things I just mentioned. 💚

Facebook is pretty much a disease for me, so I’m just accepting the fact that the best option for me is to just have an inactive account. I’d delete it entirely, but I need messenger.

Anyway, I made it approximately 47 days last time I tried to do this, but I came back because I wanted to share something important on my page. However, it just causes me more harm than good so I’m done with it.

So if you’ve walked away from Facebook, how did you fill up extra time you had? And how did you socialize? And please don’t tell me to touch grass. I get out plenty. I just want to hear what others have experienced and maybe it’ll spark an idea I hadn’t thought of.

My husband and I just joined the Church, and we very likely are about to move into a place of our own again. This means that starting a family may not be too far off, and I just want to hear about Christmas traditions you grew up with (or started) that are very Catholic, like going to midnight Mass. Tell me all the good times!

I am really curious, especially because it’s quoted in Jude.
