I was part of August 2015 class and today marks 6 sober months for me. Doing well and feeling great, but still need all the support and company I can get. Currently making a serious attempt at dealing with sugar in my life - I used it as a crutch in early recovery and got into a bad habit of consuming vast quantities of sugary treats.
Heading out to work now in falling snow... Hope everyone has a great Thursday!
I got a new fitbit for xmas and noticed every day I was well under calories and read a little about under eating which I think I actually do. I knew it slowed your metabolism, what I didn't realize is it could trigger hypoglycemia which makes you crave sugar. I'm going to start cross tracking my food as much as i can on myfitnesspal and make sure I'm not 1000 calories under every day and at least make sure I'm eating more during the day and more frequently. My problem is lunch-if I do eat anything during the day it's just a tiny amount. sugar craving after quitting drinking though are common.
