I craved sugar big time when I quit drinking. I've actually gained about 10 pounds since I quit drinking 5 months ago. I'm trying to make better choices about food and getting out there to exercise. Drinking does not always equal weight falling off your body. Think about what is more important. A sober healthy self with a few pounds or a drunk self with terrible health and lots of bad things that could happen? The last thing you need to be worring about at 9 days is weight...you should be thinking about how you ar going to get and stay and live sober.
