All or nothing in every aspect of my life.

I'm on my second day of recovery. I'm trying to figure out how to replace my drinking time with something else. I have a variety of interests, but the addict in me makes this difficult. For instance, when I decide to start eating well I do it to the extreme and eat super healthy or super bad. When I decide to exercise I push myself too hard and eventually stop. Just like my drinking and past drug use (mostly cocaine and marijuana) I go all out or nothing at all. How do I go about normal daily activities without behaving like an addict? I think recognizing this is a good first step, but I have little clue how to do anything about it.
