OK, so I'm convinced I'm going to get through this looking like A Patch of Blue-era Shelley Winters, because, seriously, I've never been so hungry in my life. It's after 11pm as I write this, and I could total a pizza by myself.
It's also pretty amazing how completely my addiction/recovery has taken over my brain. I think about it almost 24/7 -- not necessarily in a bad or obsessive way; it's just THERE, like the proverbial elephant in the living room.
This is a short one, as 1) I need to go to bed before I actually act on totaling that pizza, and B) I need to be up obscenely early tomorrow.
A great big "Thank You" to everyone who's been nice and considerate enough to share their thoughts, support and personal experiences thus far. I never really expected to get much feedback from this blog; it really was just my way of getting some personal catharsis, as I feel the most emotional release when I can write (or, I guess, type) my way through what I'm feeling. So to have your comments has been a real unexpected pleasure and blessing. It's all very much appreciated!

Alcohol has so many calories but I guess it also takes the place of food
which adds to getting drunk.
Don't worry once you get past this phase you will balance out. Trying to have healthier things around to gore on could help too.
But you are really doing it...so proud of you!
Oh, sweetie. Carrot sticks will never take the place of vodka OR french fries in my life, I'm afraid.
Thanks for the support, my friend. It means a lot to me!
