Final Chance

Day 48.....It's the weekend again and I need to be on my guard with plenty of sport on and thats usually when I struggle most, My days are starting to add up nicely and while money worries remain other aspects of my life are gradually starting to improve,just trying to keep positive and look to a gf future and not dwell to much on the past.

Morning Diary....Have made it to 50 days gf, not been easy some days i have no thoughts of gambling at all other days all i can think of is how to win some money back been a real rollercoaster but with the blocks i now have in place and by reading and posting on here i have managed to stay on the right track.Still very much a case of taking it 1 day at a time but things are starting to improve as i see my day count add up.

Morning Diary...... Day 52 gf, finding it hard recently my gambling devil has been trying his very best to tempt me back, just one bet on the football, what harm could that do......... glad to say with the blocks in place and by coming on here both reading & posting i have managed to resist and am still on the right track, some days are easier than others and still very much a case of a day at a time for me right now but i am hanging in there.

Hi Chartom great to see you doing so well, 53 days of not gambling is a big achievement and each day GF puts you further away from that last bet.

For us to have any quality of life means we just can't gamble ... stephen

Thanks Stephen for the continued support, means alot.

Day 54 still gf , on my guard as the weekend is near always a time when i liked a football bet but not anymore ,blocks are in place and doing there job just need to try and keep busy and my mind on other things.Still finding it hard to forget about my last big loss but know i need to let go so i can move on properly, its good to see my gf days mount up and am sure things will improve more for me the longer i can stay on the right track.

Come on people were making it now....day 12 gf

54 awesome bud. Let that last loss go, it's 54 days man celebrate that

Day 55............Big urges to gamble this morning,even found myself looking at fixtures & odds , so just thought i would come on here and post to help clear my head, really is a constant battle at the minute for me and glad i have those blocks in place cause without them i would be back to day 1, will battle on knowing that if i dont place that first bet the sceond cant follow........

Morning Diary .....Day 57 gf some days are good others not so good but still gamble free which is the main thing, still just taking it 1 day at a time,glad blocks are in place as have been close to failing again a few times , starting to feel "normal" again , money worries remain but know with time these will improve as long as i remain on track

Day 58..... Just seem to be going threw the motions at the minute, still think of money lost and what i could have done with it and thoughts are still there to try and win some back to ease my money worries a bit, but hey thats the exact thing that has caused these worries in the first place, blocks in place are doing there job would be lost without them to be honest, just need to keep pushing forward and things will improve the longer i stay gamble free.......

Morning Diary........ Day 60 gf for me today, still finding it a real struggle at the minute with constant thoughts of trying to win some money back,but blocks in place are doing there job......just trying to get through each day gf then move on till the next which seems to be working for me,need to keep plugging away and hope to see things improve as my day count adds up really is a case of 1 day at a time

Congratulations on 60 Days GF. Them one days at a time are certainly adding up and your doing great...stephen

Evening Diary........Day 63 gf for me today, we are off on a family holiday tomorrow one which i had put at risk because of my gambling, determind to enjoy myself and forget my problems for a few days knowing that by staying gamble free, in the future more good family times can be had together, really hate what i have done in the past and will try and use this as an insentive to keep making the right choices.

Day 66 .... just checking in on holiday with the family at the minute so no thoughts of gambling enjoying myself to much . To think I put this holiday at risk because of my actions should be enough reason to make it work this time......

Morning Diary...... Day 73 , last few days of holiday then back to normality again on Friday, really am determined to have more good times together as a family in the future and the only way that will be possible is if I remain gamble free.....finally starting to look to forward instead of dwelling in the past.
