Ya know what helped ME with the cravings? CHOCOLATE! It replaced the sugar that I was lacking. Booze has plenty of sugar, and I wasn't getting it anymore, so I ate chocolate --- any candy bar, like Hershey's chocolate bars. Boy, I ate a lot of them. LOL And it really DID help the cravings! After about the first 2-3 weeks, I eased up on it thankfully. Otherwise, I would have looked like the back side of a barn!

I loved orange juice too, but unfortunately it doesn't like ME. Just doesn't settle well.

Anyway -- you're doing great -- try & get to a meeting my friend. I hope they do a FIRST STEP meeting for you. That's where they tell you THEIR stories! Believe me, their stories will sound just like yours! But it will make you feel alot more comfortable at the tables. Let me know if/when you go, will you? Love, Lee
