I'm new to the site but over the last 4 days where I have been gamble free it's all thanks to people on here and just reading about the pain some people go through help me hold back the urge to gamble.
One or two years from now gamble free you would have done route 66 and saving for it again!!
Keep strong and focused on what you want. You can do it.
Thanks Ricky for the words of encouragement they mean a lot. So ivs done a spreadsheet over the past six months and I've earntone thousand one hundred a month so including June that's 6600 ive spent six hundred on gambling, five hundred on holidays and a further 1000 on everything else. So 2100 . Six hundred is including all of my fruit machine playing 400 loss and 200 poker loss. I know this doesn't sound too bad but its one twelths of my wages on gambling alone. If I was still betting online it would be at least twice or three times this I know for a fact. I like to hot everything down on a spreadsheet and keep an eye on myself these days. So I've come a long way but hows the time to put the next six months away rather than fritter it wawy and then I should have six hundred plus five hundred for a holiday to America next year. Or maybe some winter sun in December . Ive got a weeks holiday left to take before January so if I start now I should be able to do it. I like to keep things positive

SAnother day, another set back, straight away a day later I go and spend twenty three on a night of poker, noooooo. Well at least I'm always honest when I hit a set back. On a plus note put my shelves up today and booked a weeks holiday for start of November. So every month at the moment is a cycle. I get paid I transfer money around then begin taking it out again untill I feel the regret post on here and stop then get paid again. This month I can hopefully start a new cycle. I will start with transferring money for holiday over. I have no plans for this month so can live a cheaper lifestyle. Hoping to play tennis and get my diet back on track. I'm thirteen stoneonepound now hoping to hit that elusive twelve six pounds.
