Day 12

So nice to be clean for 12 days. My AA meeting last night was great. It’s nice not to feel depressed anymore and to be out of the vicious cycle of alcoholism. To be honest, eating a lot of food and sweets at night has helped me survive some very aggressive cravings. I have gained some weight which I believe will balance out with more sobriety. And weight gain is far more preferable than ending up in jail or another institution because of my drinking (I have been detained 4 times for drunk in public but fortunately no charges ever were filed). On Tuesday I have ordered a bunch of fruit smoothies to arrive at my door. I guess I pour the fresh fruit in my blender with either water or milk and then I have a fresh smoothie (I guess I could also throw in some protein powder). My friend gave me the website which was nice of her because she knows I struggle with overeating when I give up alcohol and drugs (my drug of choice being the over counter stimulant pseudoephedrine).

Well done. Yep sugar really.helped with my cravings. Eating treats instead of drinking. Definitely the lesser of the 2 evils. Concentrate on the alcohol and the rest will follow I promise.
