Day 13 and 160 days till end of the year! Had a busy weekend and it's been good as I haven't really thought about gambling at all. Easiest weekend I have had for a long time. So I think a good topic is staying busy because if you're occupied then there's not the same pull to gamble. I need to use this method and try and stay occupied in the evenings.

Hey you're starting to save yourself! Always good to see you put down another post... even if it's at the expense of my dehibilitating man flu! I'm doing good on the no gambling front. Feeling more positive in the longer term which I've never really thought before. I've come to terms with not gambling ever again. Hope you're ok?!

I am following your strength which is giving me strength even with your manky man flu 🙂

I have found it hard but I realise I want to stay on this challenge and reach some small goals.

I do not want to have another christmas gambling !

You too Uncertain.... one thing is for certain if you keep up that positive mind set and your guard up we can see this christmas challenge through !

No slipping. I wont be, I have guards in place but even so I think I am ready for this journey and feel better that we are doing it as a team and not alone
