tomorrow is a new day

Thanks Hazard,

I came close to telling him last night but Right now I cant.

Well done on almost 1 month GF, it will help having your girlfriend on board too.

Day 1

today is day 1 all over again. I am angry at myself today, I think thats enough to keep me from playing slots. My downfall is like most, chasing the losses, placing bigger bets as that one big win would clear that days losses.

I think i am going to try and put £5 per day in a little pot. Then at the end of each month, pay a little extra to one of my debts.

I am quite busy today so i am feeling confident I can smash day 1 and feel proud of day 2 tomorrow

Yes, I did the money in the jar/pot idea too, the last time I was gamble free. I may just do the same this time around too.

Stay focused Emel and remember that there will be better times ahead without the evils of gambling.

Let’s smash Day 1!!!

Day 1 is almost over and I have did it! Day 2 is just around the corner! Currently cuddled up with my children on the sofa watching some cartoon, they are the reason I breathe, I need to do this not only for myself, but so much so for them. To give them the best life I can, the holidays and memories!

Well done Emel! Those first 24 hours are always a massive challenge. You’ve come through with flying colours.

Have a well earned rest tonight and you go again tomorrow. Sticking with the same plans you’ve used today.

Have a good evening x

Day 2

Well here we go day 2, feeling quite positive today, I need to go out for a few hours today so that will keep me clear headed. Its usually when I have time and bored that is my weakest time. I have closed all accounts though and have self excluded, plus I have closed all credit cards that had no balance on them. I am much less likely to gamble with money in my bank sccount, I always used a credit card, to me it was like monopoly money.

I always felt the same about money online.

You’re doing great! Each second that passes is you getting further and further away from that last bet and closer and closer to where you want to be.

Keep on moving forwards, Emel!

It’s the only way to go!

Day 3

Not much to report this morning.

Happy to have reached day 3 though, im sure i can make it day 4 tomorrow.

You’re doing great, Emel.

You’re slowly slipping further and further away from the bad memory of your last gamble.

That’s all in the past now.

The present/future is what you can control. Let’s make it count for something.

With you all the way! Let’s conquer Day 3!

Have a great day!

Day 4

well I didnt even think about gambling yesterday with being kept occupied at work/home. And ive sailed into day 4.

Hopefully one day it will be day 4-ever. Im on the right track

Have a good day everyone

You’re on the right track, indeed!

Hope you’ve had another good day today. A day without gambling is a great day. A winning day. It’s as simple as that!

Keep winning Emel! x

Hey Emel, how’s things? Hope you’re good.

Hi Dan yes day 7 now!! Its gone quick the last few days!! The weather is really poor where I am and i was lucky to make it home from work. I couldnt get in today though but the kids have kept me busy. Another snow day tomorrow, cannot get the car out so will need to walk for supplies!

I am off to catch up on your diary.

Yay!!!! One week gamble free!

Well done Emel! I’m so happy for you.

I’m glad that you’re being kept busy by your kids and not having the urges to gamble. Each day that passes you’re getting stronger and stronger.

A snow day for me today too so I will have to find something to occupy myself with. I may venture out for a walk this morning.

Have a good day. X

Hi Emel well done on 7 days gf! Really really pleased for you, my problem was online slots too and I’ve lost so much. Keep posting and one day at a time, each gf day is precious and to be celebrated best of wishes X Lulu
