        And here is a hug cause I am sure you didnt deserve a telling off.:l
        I gather its the same member you felt bad for not getting in contact with a while back?

        Rustop - How are you shedding your last 7 lbs? Thats all I need to do. I am consuming no more than 1000 cals a day. What about you?
        John- how is the crawling? Bet your bum hurts now. Lol
        Lav- What do you plan to do with all the chicks?
        Dill - A bit late but I loved your last recovery message. I like reading things like that.
        LBH - we all have our own ways of recovery...I wish I could be able to drink sensibly for a couple of days and then abstain for a month. But beggers cant be chosers and I cant moderate...Hope you are okay.

        I am sorry if I have left anyone out but hope evryone on this thread had a good day. x

            Paguy it's a silly just for fun thread, I only "got it" a few days ago after much explaining was required, it's like a joke to see who can have the last word and hence be the thread killer but of course it never happens :H

              Greeting's everyone,

              Rusty, i hope you're okay there. I hope you stick around too. You are an absolute gem.
              RB, i'm very interested in your (non) sugar adventures, and i read with interest. I bought some 'stevia' hebal sweetner, to put in my coffee, but it ruins the taste for me. I use raw sugar, but i do notice the link between consumption of sugar, and al craving's. (shameless advertising....You tube- 'Startingover again blues' by Guittarista.......2 t's)
              Glad you had a great birthday lunch Chilli!

              A safe, sober, and magical weekend to all!

                Guitarista I have been overloading on the chocolate since giving up AL and I have put on about 7lbs in three months.I was told by AA to eat sweets as it increases your willpower and the sugar rushes were helping to calm my cravings initially but I now I am just eating it for the sake of eating. Swapping one addiction after the other...I dont need to eat two chocolate bars a day, or a muffin a day, nor a doughnut..nor chocolate peanuts or marshmellow fluff...

                I am sticking to 1000 cals a day and all processed foods are a big no no. I even exercised this morning! You trying to lose weight too?

                    Rebirth - 1000 calories a day does not seem like it would nourish one of Lav's new little chicklings! I think 1200 - 1400 calories a day would be better for you. In all of the reading I've done about dieting and eating healthfully, I've learned that you really have to eat in order to lose weight. Starving yourself is not the answer!! What's important is WHAT you eat....

                    Please don't take offense - only trying to help

                      Hi RB,

                      Wow, re AA recommending you eat sweet's to increase willpower. The sugar factor is an interesting one, to be sure. I'm still learning about sugar, but i was under the impression that it may increase our al craving's as al has lot's of sugar? Anyway, i developed the sweet tooth i never knew i had when i stopped drinking. Not so bad these day's, and i love ice cream and chocolate cake now and then...mmmm! Luckily i don't have any problem's with my weight, and i exercise regularly, so a slab of cake now and then doesn't seem to bother me, but i know that too much sugar and sweet stuff isn't good for us, and i read that too much sugar isn't good for our general mood either. For me, it's important to eat a balanced diet, with plenty of fruit and veg, and maintain balance and calm with my nervous system/body chemistry, not to mention my thinking, which regular exercise does wonder's for.

                        I am tiny John.Only 5ft 1 inches tall. but you are probably right. I am going to try out 1000 cals for a week and see how it goes. If my body goes into starvation mode and hangs onto my fat then I will eat more. Just experimenting for now.

                        My tummy is rumbling as I write

                          Hey Pa,

                          I agree. For me, it's important WHAT i eat. I eat as much as i like, but it's healthy and tasty. If i were to mainly eat sweet's and macca's/kfc, i'd soon be a bit of a huffing red faced porker.

                            G - funny how you are under the impression that sugar may increase cravings.But there is sugar in Al so maybe its a substitue?
                            I agree with the balanced diet. I just need to drop the surplus fat and get back into my jeans. I still fit in them but I have to breathe in a bit.. Actuelly tell a lie. The last time I wore them the top button popped off.

                            Thats crap

                                RB, Get into the little tins of tuna. (protein, energy, not fat. mmm) Maybe a tin of 3/4 bean mix from Tesco's with some rice and chicken, or without? cheap, mmmm.
