Day 39,got home early from work so went a walk with wife and 2 kids then played game of 5 a sides.played terrible to say the least but hay ho am still free of that 1st bet and will wake up happy knowing that.not every day we are happy not every day we are sad but one thing I can say is with no money gambled that major guilt,angry,emotional,remorse,selfish and hurt feeling will never hang over us for long as each day betfree we become a much better person. Stay strong everyone Scottyboy,s guard is up and staying solid. :@
Day 40 done and dusted! 😉
40 days mate get in!! I echo what you said in my diary its really helping me to have you alongside and long may it continue! Xmas is gonna come mate and the gers and boro will be top of the league but most importantly me and you will be top of the no betting league!!
Stay safe over the weekend mate, do you find you're still getting tempted by the football? I am, but the dream team certainly helps
Sitting on my break at work feeling great that I have gone 40 days and not placed a single bet.normally this was my study time for stupid horses and football.i knew the trainers had told jockeys make sure that horse dont win today and yet I still fancied my chance of betting few winners.fool I was but now the tables have turn and I see them for what they are.CROOKS.aw well better get back to work.goodluck everyone and stay away from that 1st bet.
Not feeling well today at all but still bet free. 42 days done and dusted 😉

Ye hope you are feeling better scott. You seem to be seeing things clearly at the minute which is a good place to be. Iv had a real weak period need to get back to the mindset you're in. Well done mate.
Feeling better now,jst getting ready to go to meeting now.43 days today and proud. Some days are alot harder than others but the main thing is am still bet free.
Halfway through another day bet free,WHY because I am starting to realise that I can have everything out of life I want and I dont have to place a bet.i can be nice to people,listen to people when the need someone to talk to and also can trust myself and be trusted by others by doing 1 thing and thats not placing a bet.who knows what life brings to us???????? No one,but I am going to try and live what I have left of life gamble free,happy and healthy.I regret all lost time and money due to gambling and also everyone around me that I have hurt so now its time to
turn things around. Hope eeveryone is having a bet free day.
Hi Scottyboy well done on being gamble free, and seeing how stopping has made your life so much better, you sound in a good state of mind.
Glad your enjoying GA something which I'll have to try.
Went for a wee walk at lunch there, sun splitting the sky, feel much more positive than i did y day, but it s a long road ahead, but one I intend to enjoy gamble free!
Hi Scotty
43 days you should be proud
Great positive post good to read
Keep going to that happier and healthy life
With guard up and head up high
Take care and stay safe

Hi mate yes I agree we just have to keep racking up the clean days and surely things will get easier but the main thing is even if we are unhappy, bored, down at least we are not losing anymore money. Xmas is realistic mate we CAN do it and we will.
dream team going ok so far , how do the transfers work, as in how many do you get and when do you get them?
Another days work done and not a single penny bet.:-) stopped for 1 beer on way home at local pub that is next to a bookies.an old guy I used to speak to in the bookies said how is my luck,the look on his face when I said I have stopped gambling was a picture.:-) fed up counting day betfree now but still going strong.last bet 12/7/14.
Well done Scotty
