not worried about the scale.......

hi shotgun...i,too, thought i'd lose weight when i quit drinking,with all the sugar and carbs in alchohol......but i have gained weight also,about 7 pounds.....i have been sober for 37 days.i also started taking AD,which i've heard helps you keep the weight on.....i am not too worried about the few pounds....my weight is not my major concern right now.....if i decide to treat myself at night with a dessert with my coffee,it's better than drinking a bottle....and i know i will tackle the pounds when i am feeling better about myself.....don't be too hard on yourself...my therapist told me to be very gentle and kind to myself these days...please do the same,and congrats on your four months...KT
