Great of the 48 days Bambi and all your progress . I wanted to check out your diary since you supported me on mine. I read about the fobt machines spin amount reduction and I think that cg can/have/ and will lose alot even at $2 a spin. My highest spins were $2 and I lost huge amounts of money over the years. It was only this last few times gambling that I placed $5 spins and was thinking about the high risk catatgory. Now I'm done. Glad you are well on your way , that's inspiring. tara2

Gf 52 days last night i permanently excluded from two sites i forgot about until i had a text and email . Its really stupid but i was so scared just logging on so i could exclude but i did it and had no thoughts at all of gambling on there ive come a long way . Glev1 x
53 days gf feeling good no urges recently . Paid day next week nice to know i will not be wasted 2nd wage since stopping might even be able to save a bit that would never happen before . I think once ive paid debts each month im going to try really hard and save . Found all that money to gamble with so im sure i can do this . What a wast every day i spent 40 - 50 pounds and if i had it really bad 100+ im lucky when i think about it that im not in worse debt at least im able to cover my payments i know a lot on here are have nothing left. I really hate those sites now how it turns us in to someone else . Anyhow gl people stay strong keep your money dont waste it Bambi x

Keep going hun and stay strong bestest of wishes x Lulu x
56 days gf took my daughter for her first swimming lesson today it was amazing and the teachers did a amazing job seeing how happy my girl was at that class meant everything to me . If i had continued gambling that class would never happened i would have been too busy online . Things are looking so much better in my life now ive even booked the little one some dance classes. My credit cards all have money on them so no more 12.00 charges im hoping to close a couple once i get my new credit card to do a balance transfer 12 months 0 interest hopefully by the end of those 12 months it will be paid . Just got to do the same with the rest . I will not gamble today or ever again i pray . Stay strong its worth it in the end 🙂
58 days gf got paid yesterday paid some bills the rest go dd . Today did my balance transfer on 2 cards little left on one as you can only transfer 95 percent but still good ill pay it off next month and cut it up . So far all is going well i even paid my water bill stupid but it just feels good to be able to get paid and pay it all and have some left well little bit lol . Took my girl out today only a playcentre but she loved it . Hope everyone has a loverly easyer weekend . Stay strong i will not gamble today .
Hi Bambi. Your really smashing this 58 days! And dealing with payday too. It feels so much better doesn’t it paying bills, that would sound insane to a non gambler enjoying paying bills but not to us it gives me back a sense of pride in myself and peace of mind which was non existent when I gambled, it takes so much more than your money. Have great Easter hun glad your daughter enjoyed her play day bestest wishes x Lulu x
Congratulations on your continued success. It's lovely to hear you can now spend quality time with your daughter. I bet she's loving it!!!
All good wishes x
Happy Easter everyone !!! 60 days gf feeling good 🙂
Hiya Bambi thank you for your posts means a lot and so happy we all help each other. I feel a natural high being gf it’s just so much of a relief not bringing that cycle of highs and lows that gambling brings. Well can’t even say highs really I stopped getting them a long time ago, just the awful compulsion to keep tapping the screen spinning those reels. Hope your doing good Bambi and happy x bestest wishes Lulu x
