Amanda, I have close to 4 months sober and my diet is still a bit screwy. I craved a lot of sugar at first too, and soda tasted better than ever. I thought I was going nuts until I asked around about it and this is common when we first quit alcohol, which used to be our main source of carbs. Trying to replace that with candy and donuts is almost instinctive. I hate the weight roller coaster but I do enjoy being sober. It's a relief to wake up refreshed and being able to remember day-to-day things. The sobriety part is the most important thing you can do for your overall health, congrats on your decision to take action!
