Weight Gain - 5 months sober and can't stop eating!
So, am really pleased with how my non-drinking has been coming along as I havent touched a drop since 1st Jan this year. Coming up for 5 months anniversay which is great, but I seem to be having trouble controlling my eating and have put on at least 1/2 a stone since I started.
Has anyone else experienced this?
My problem was very much binge drinking related, so I didnt have the calorie reduction that a daily drinker would experience.
I also find in social situations I use food rather than drink to focus on, and also as a treat. I don't think I can face a diet on top of giving up drink.
Plus I seem to have extra mad cravings for sugar, sugary treats and chocolate, which is very unlike me.
Can anyone relate? Any tips or advice for this much appreciated....
