Day 62
Over 2 months now! Not a single bet placed. I've had many urges in the last 2 weeks. Passing bookies and thinking of when I would go in and just put a ВЈ1 on which turned into £1000. With a few quid in my pocket I've thought should I? Then on the other hand losing 60 days would P**s me off so much! And I have walked on.
Can happily see odds on the TV and not care and not fussed if I see a friend winning because I know deep down your never a long term winner.
Keep the strength going and setting day 100 in my sight.
Hope everyone else is keeping strong!

Day 67.
Very happy and no financial worry anymore. Still getting square with debts and payments but all under full control.
Always think to myself imagine if I went and lost £700 now to the nasty machines. I'd be tipped up again and back to square one.
That's holding me off at the minute. And the thought of just a little 1 pound bet is non existence as I don't want to loose the 67 days I have!!
Just over 30 to go until 100!
There is only 1 winner in gambling! And it's not us.
Keep busy and strong everyone.

Day 74
Just a quick update.
Still gamble free. Had many horse tips recently but not put any on. They won as well but still wasn't bothered.
Went into the bookies with my mate whilst he put a bet on. I didn't put anything on. Watched a guy lose a lot of money on the FOBT. Made me feel so good how far I've come.
Keep busy is still my key to avoiding gambling. I'm 25 days from 100 gamble free days. Next target will then be half a year.
Keep digging hard people. It's so worth it believe me. I have no financial difficulties anymore. I've saved ВЈ2250 so far in 75 days. I use to average a loss of £30 day before I stopped.
Keep strong

I'm an investor so will use the money in the right way.
I lost around 200 week and every week I've been putting the 200 in a jar. Surprising what you can achieve!!
Not posted for around 3 weeks now but I've been on watching others progress. I'm 3 days off 100!! My target from the beginning. Do I miss gambling? Life couldn't get better right now. I haven't looked back. I had a 20/1 horse tip last week.....I never backed it......It won.....and I was not bothered in the slightest!
Hopefully I'm off gambling. Setting my next target for 180.....half a year. But for now here is to the next 3 days of achieving 100 days gamble free. Not a single bet.....
Keep pushing hard guys. It's totally worth it
