Shantra, I think I noticed wanting to eat big-time during the first month or so. I don't know how much of it was a true body reaction or a mind thing ("do something else" now that I am not drinking). But....now that I think of it, I am having complete meals every day now; rarely will I skip one. In the past, it was very common for me to skip dinner, because I was so busy getting drunk. So that lunch was basically the only real meal I was having for quite a while. Wanting to eat regularly and wisely is the better choice for us!
