I'm cutting myself a break right now and will probably get stricter with myself after 90 days. I was already overweight before getting sober and now additional weight is packing on...
It's a good idea to keep the focus on your alcoholism, definitely. I didn't begin to tackle other issues until I had a year sober. And it's an ongoing process, as I can easily become compulsive about many things besides alcohol. It's a bit like whack-a-mole!
