I'm only four days in but I learned from years of drinking that if I ate right after work I wouldn't drink as much or be able to not drink that night if I was in the doghouse. I think that helped to make my problem worse because I would always drink my hunger away. Then destroy the kitchen for an hour or so eating potentially dangerous stuff like barely cooked eggs and pretty much raw bacon. Sometimes was horrified at what I saw the next day..long story short. Filling up on good food curbs my cravings.
