    I'm hungry

    'You might not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you!' - Walt Disney

    I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing. ~Agatha Christie

    I'm hungry

    Tiredofit,

    Congrats on the weight loss, terrific!
    I found I really din't eat more when I quit drinking but I sure did when I quit smoking. Packed on 13 lbs & that was seriously disappointing BUT I was commited to keeping my quits.
    Have you tried the Hypno CDs? I think they really helped me learn to relax without my 'old friends' & they are calorie free The weight is slowly coming off but it's coming off & I've kept my quits.

    You can do it too, you need to work up that serious commitment!

    Wishing you the best!

      Hiya Tired,
      60 pounds is amazing!! Not easy to do and really inspirational. I can see why you don't want to gain it back... I know what your talking about with that hunger for food even food we don't even like.... I get that too. I'm not sure if it is not drinking related.. but it could be. I started my journey because I had gained 30 pounds in a years time and wanted to loose it. So my weight loss, AF, and NF were all done at the same time. When I was hungry I reached for all the things I didn't feel like... apples, celery, carrots stuff I really had to chop on. Where it took more effort.. then I'd wait out that feeling. I found an apple could keep hunger at bay for about an hour... I also got addicted to smoothies... and would count on them to get me through at least 2 hours... Not sure if this helps.. but I feel your hunger

        Thank you so much!! Well I know what all that was. My lovely "friend" came to visit me, just like the same time every month so I was all kinds of hormone craziness. Things have calmed down and I've had just one drink in the last 3 days. I feel great and ready to start Sober September tomorrow. I LOVE smoothies and make them at home. My daughter loves to make them with me so that will be our drink of choice .
