Good thinking, Ilya, and thanks for getting us back on track!

I think I have been eating fewer "good" carbs, like quinoa and couscous, since I quit drinking, and more sugary treats. I think a determination to get those healthy carbs back in as I eliminate the treats will do the trick for me.

Tayrak, thanks, but for me giving myself permission to have a small amount doesn't work -- I'll just scarf out, and then get into the cycle of telling myself, well, I'm recovering from a sugar binge, so I might as well have a little more to get myself through it, and call the whole day shot. My weight-training does help me crave healthy food, but it hasn't helped eliminate the sugar jones.

For me, it's time to throw down the sugar gauntlet.
