Just wondered if this was common...
I quit booze a few weeks ago as my intake was about 4 bottles of wine a week plus a few G&Ts. Consisting of about half a bottle of wine and 1-2 G&Ts per day. That's clearly way too high and there are reasons it crept up.
My question is more around the amount of food I've been getting through since quitting. I think I was drinking around 600 calories a day of alcohol (sugar) and wonder if my body is trying to replace that.
Before I quit I barely ate any junk / snacks, now I'm craving biscuits, crisps and ice cream from about lunchtime til bedtime.
Is this common?
