Makes sense to me. I suspected that I was the last time I dried out. Whole Grains/ Complex Carbs help a lot. And if this time is like last time my cravings will be gone in a month or so if I make it. I've heard its kinda like type II diabetes in that it goes into remission when you do the right things. Seems to be sort of a chicken and thing in that did the drinkin' cause it or was it a genetic predisposition or a little of both?
