Eating for Australia
Eating for Australia
Ok so now I'm on Day 5. Still hard but my appetite has returned with a vengeance and I seem to just want to eat and eat and eat! Has anyone had this as part of their withdrawal...does it settle down? I'm wondering if I need to join a gym to curb any weight gain....I really don't want to end up the size of a house.
Oh and I no longer believe Herbal Tea tastes like ass...I've found a really nice Lemon and ginger flavour I like :-)

totally normal, just try not to let it get our of hand, don't want to replace one obsession with another. For me I got a terrible sweet tooth I have to watch- why can't we get cravings for vegetables?!?
I ate a lot when I first stopped. Like least I was terribly underweight. I was consuming all my calories in alcohol. It has evened out and returned to a normal balance except for the sweets. Now I have to be mindful of them.
Things settle down in time. I still have more of a sweet tooth however which I never had growing up or when I was drinking.
In sobriety I had to find things to do- SR filled a big gap for me- now I have a lot more on, and exercise is part of my life- but I did eat a lot of chocolate in the first six months

First I have to say I eat for Australia, but you are welcome to my title.
I've 'conquered' alcohol for now but it seems I have to have something, and food is it. I haven't put on weight but I haven't lost it either.
If you can get to the gym, probably the way to go.
