in the zone

well here i am at day 49 or seven whole weeks. and right now gambling is not an issue for me because today i have not gambled and neither have i for last 49 days.another thing i have learnt is that i was most destructive when iwas tired or run down as i got the attitude i dont really care what i now realise is that i need to sometimes stop and give my body time to relax and rest. as you can probably tell today is one of those days where i need to relax so for once i will do just that

gamble frees the way forward

Carl mate you are doing well. Yes to the auditions but only if we are the judges now which one of us is louis and which one simon hahahaha... We could even have our own gamcare band haha thanks for the laugh mate. Onwards and upwards.

Hi Carl,

Just to say congratulations on the 7 weeks, those are 49 more days in the land of the living.

Take it easy and try not to exhaust yourself, keep those barriers up, you are doing great!

Hi Carl

Really pleased your remaining so positive and good for you for taking time out to relax...it's amazing I too feel that I am now more able to relax and not spend my whole time gambling, thinking about gambling or worrying about losses.

Well done to day 49...that's fantastic

Keep strong and stay positive

Forwards not back

Hey Carl,

How you doing mate? Ye my job is kinda part time at the moment until next week where I will be working evenings as well. I only plan to be in this job until I can find something better. But civilian life is really good no stress of the army on top of me now and all the cr** that came with it. I do feel like I am on leave at the moment so the reality of not being a soldier hasn't actually hit home yet mate.

I am training hard still and in a minute of to have a big workout at the gym its such a nice day again here on the sunshine coast lol. Well keep going mate you must be on day 50 today and that is a brilliant achievement you are strong and determined mate and you are a brilliant member who is full of support to everyone so thank you.

Hopefully catch up soon mate take care.

Ricky 🙂

well day 50 is here for me

carl

Carl mate hope you are alright you are doing well. Soz you are a bit low mate but it will get better soon. You cant back out of the auditions now hahahha Take good care mate

Yo,

Bloody well done , my friend day 50 , bet at the beginning that seemed as impossible as winning a gold medal.

So many people loose motivation at this point , myself Flagg and Castle to name but a few . And look at the Flagg now flying high ( sorry he he)

Serously it's just part of this journey , when you come out the other side you will be that much stronger for it .

I wonder if it is just the mind resting , after all the worry and action it sure when we were at it .

I hope this mood lifts quickly ,

You take care
