Checking in Day 10, it`s been a good week, no thoughts of gambling, I`m a better man without all that c**P. Few bills on the horizon, need to overcome the default setting in my head to gamble to pay bills. How to turn a £60 MOT into a £600 disaster. Stay safe everyone.
Double figures for me now. 10 days gambling free.
Hi all, checking in at on day 46.
I actually looked at the football fixtures this morning and for a second thought about where I'd throw my money if I was still a gambler. However, it was fleeting and I had no urge to actually go ahead and do it. It felt good.
Hope everyone has a great weekend gamble free.
enjoying watching the incoming checkin's
nice to see lots of honesty in our challenge's shares
keep it up
Just cheking in day 12 ... Feeling good.
Hi All, checking in day 10. Hard day with the football on but took my son out for a shopping trip and lunch. Every time I bought something I reminded myself that on a usual Saturday I would be wasting my money in the bookies. My son came back happy so another good day. Stay strong everyone. Also went to gamcare councilling this week. Really helps as does this challenge.
Unfortunately I work every Wednesday evening so I won't be able to join in the chat room
No bet since xmas eve! keeping notes of things i wanted to buy or couldnt do or forgot about because of gambling, has helped fight the urges as well as visting here often.
Checking in - now 8 days without a penny wasted on slots.

Hi All, checking in and its Day 14, feeling depressed but it is what it is after being clean for 2 weeks. If mood doesn't get better in another month or so will have to pay a visit to the Dr's...hoping to have spirits highre next week.
Brilliant post tickfollowstock. Can totally relate to everything you said. This site has definetely giving me the tools i need to kick this habit for good. Also would not want to let our team down either. You had a full triangle today and you still didnt resist. That is a massive step on the road to recovery
Another week has passed. I am 21 days clean and going strong.
