Block 1 specific device from accessing certain sites

Hi ,

basically, I want to stop myself from procrastinating, by blocking a couple of sites that I usually waste time on.

 

Now, I know about browser extensions that will do that or by blocking sites in the host file. 

 

Problem is: I cannot be trusted - host files are easily changed and I have deleted said browser extensions to access blocked sites in the past and I will do it again. Yes, I'm an idiot, but I gotta work something out to stop my idiocracy.

 

I want to make it REALLY hard for myself to un-block blocked sites.

 

So, I thought I could do it on my router. Maybe by blocking sites for my MAC address, and then setting a router password that only some other person knows. 

 

A network-wide block would not be an option, since my girlfriend would be pissing about not being able to access netflix or youtube. It must be for my machine only.

 

Is something like this possible?
