When my dad would go on the wagon he would eat gallons of ice cream. He was a really hard working man even though he was alcoholic. The ice creams and pies and stuff replaced the sugars from all the alcohol.
That's the gist of it. It's like quitting a really, really bad sugar addiction combined with nervous withdrawal symptoms.
When I quit before definitely crave ice cream, milk, chocolate. Something with the sugar
Yep. As you get used to not drinking eat a lot of high quality proteins like meats, eggs, fish. Hang in there brother, one day at a time. Keep working at it and never say never.
