19 days gamble free and weekend went well. I had a couple of urges for first time since I quit but was kept busy with the kids and managed to avoid having a bet. Feeling good about starting my 4th week gamble free.
well done it sounds like you doing well and i am really happy for you. simon
Thanks Tryer,
Difficult few days for everyone with Cheltenham on and all the hype over it in work and with my friends etc but keeping myself busy and avoiding it. Roll on Friday evening!!
Unfortunately had a relapse at the end of last week. I took a few days off and probably through boredom I placed a few bets. I didn't lose a big lot financially but it's still a kick in the teeth because I was doing so well.
Thankfully I haven't had a bet since Saturday so gonna try again to beat this. Day 3 almost over.
No gambling since the last post. Feeling better today than at start of the week. I felt I let myself down by having a bet at the weekend and letting my guard down. I have the kids this weekend so I know for a fact I wont have a bet because when Im with them its the last thing I think about.
Keep trying keep wanting it buddy you will get there in the end.....

Thanks Bear,
Another day gamble free and looking forward to a betting free weekend.
Hardest day of the week out of the way. Went to Cinema with kids and took mind off things. I'm planning lots of things through the week to keep me focused and away from gambling.
Start of a new week and after a weekend without gambling im feeling good about myself again after last weeks relapse. The plan now is to keep myself busy all week.
I managed to successfully have a gamble free week, very busy at work which helped. Looking forward to the weekend now.
Well done mate the fight gets easier although we must always be aware of what damage gambling can do to us have good weekend mate
