No more the slot fool, your now Mrs Supercool. Really impressed with your courage, attitude and determination.
After admitting to yourself you had a gambling problem you owned up to your husband. That takes courage.
You put blocks in place to make gambling less accessible. You have taken stock of your finances and made plans to get them in order. Hobbies, exercise and hard work have been the icing the cake. That cake, which is your gamble free life, is full of goodies and will be a vast improvement on the gambling misery cake.
Very proud of you but take care. We are always only one bet away from the downward spiral and the misery it entails.
Thanks Stephen, lovely of you to say so. I'm really pleased you decided to stuck around the forum, it would have been a shame for you to take some time away as you would be greatly missed. We all need advice from experienced people, such as yourself. Your words of wisdom have helped and inspired many. Thank you for that x 🙂
99 days and I've gambled not 1! Boom
you must be buzzing well done, go get a fry up in the morning to celebrate 100 days
Thanks Wiley, good plan 🙂
I must admit it does feel awesome
Congratulations Slotfool on 100 days gamble free. You have maintained a good positive attitude. Well done...
Well done on reaching 100 days gf, great going ..... keep up the good work you are doing great.
Thanks guys!
Today is definitely a milestone day for me. Not only am I very proud to say I'm one hundred days gamble free, it also marks 6 months from my surgery with no further health issues. Today is a very good day. I feel so good.
I was tempted to hit a fry up lol but opted for a 2hrs gym session instead.
My next goal is to be debt free and continue to rack up the gf days, one day at a time.
Good luck everyone, stay strong and have a great weekend.
108 days, so much has changed in 108 days. It's hard to believe I let myself get in to that mess last year. I feel so good and strong and very positive. Have a good week guys
122 days ....wow 🙂
Superb, well done. Have a great day and keep up the brill work.
Thanks 46 and out.
Feels great to say I'm now 150 days gamble free.
That is made my day to see 150 days gamble free on your diary. I was feeling like progress was a trifle slow but you have lifted my spirits and given my resolve a boost.
Congratulations on your excellent progress but stay alert to the dangers. Gambling addiction is always lurking in the shadows and has caught me out a couple of times after 5 & 6 month gamble free.
I suspect I am a bit dim. The addiction told me I had done well and deserved a reward so why not treat myself to a session on the fobt machine. Sad that I could be so gullible but that's in the past now. Wishing you well ..stephen
Hi Slot Fool
Just thought I would pop in to say hello and make sure all is good with you?
I hope you are being distracted by fun and enjoyable things and times that 'normal' life can offer us.
Take care
46 and Out
