That sounds fab, I have been trying to find a thread where someone says they have more energy, because I can actually remember when my days were hectic but I thrived on the hussle & bussle. I liked life that way. I dont have the energy these days & not much gets done.
And as for the cake, I agree, alcohol has given me a couple of extra stone in weight. Losing the alcohol we can easily afford a big chunk of choccy cake! When people give up smoking (i'll tackle that one later) they need to avoid the extra food if they dont want to gain weight, at least giving this up actually helps us lose weight! Sounds shallow maybe, but that's what I am looking forward to. My confidence has gone right down with weight gain. Hey I am female lol but I eat anything & everything when drunk, sugarry, fatty foods, being drunk seemed to have me craving food & removed the full feeling. So I am going to eat cake, but it wont be on the same level yet will be just as nice as it used to be! x
