Hi Ruby, a belated welcome to SR. Looking around the forums I see you've got a few threads going and I'm glad to see you reaching out for info and support. I hope you'll join in on the Daily Check-In to post your progress http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...art-vii-6.html

No I have to admit that when I quit chewing my drinking increased, then when I sobered up I cross-addicted to eating. But I think that everyone will react differently, the most important thing is to have an awareness, and take necessary action to correct the behavior.

Maybe a suggestion.....when I was eating heavily I really craved junk food, but as my body continued the healing and detox process the food started to taste so much better that I started to crave healthier foods. Instead of pizza and a Coke, how about trying something a little healthier? It certainly made things easier on my stomach, I was able to stop taking Aciphex for the acid problems.
