The same is true for me. I would get drunk and order so many pizzas, french fries, hamburgers to the point I felt like I was about to explode. It's much better to have a healthy diet. Without alcohol, I don't feel the need to binge eat.
Fortunately I'm one of those people who can't get overweight. I have a very skinny body type and years of binge drinking and eating only made me weigh a few pounds more than normal. And now, after 4 days, I'm almost back on my ideal weight. I guess I have a fast metabolism or something. Perhaps that's also why I could drink so much. I've looked at the amounts I've drunk and they were usually in the range where people get hospitalized with alcohol poisoning.
Maybe that's also why the withdrawal is going so smoothly.
And the money! It was never an issue, I have plenty, but seeing all of it suddenly saving up is great!
