i have been clean for a couple of weeks now. well, i just dont have an appitite for anything but icecream or anything sweet. its hard to think of anything else i want. i have been taking a one a day vitamin and wellbutrin. i feel ok. some ups and downs but so much better than when i was on pills. life is great now!!! love, christy
i have that problem too, i am eating ice cream as we speak and have chocolate on hand at all times. i have been clean for 100 days, and i am in the sweets mode. not sure what that is all about but i do feel very good!!

Wayt to go on your clean time girls...
Sweets aren't my problem, it's NOT eating enough of anything. I literally haven't been hungry for a year. Ever since I got clean, I've lost 18 pounds. From not eating....control issue? Probably.

I'm only in my 5th day, but I've already lost 9 pounds because I don't want to eat ANYTHING. My clothes sure fit good, though. Last night my wife fried up a big juicy cheeseburger and sat at the table with me until I ate every bite.
My ideal weight for my frame and age is 184, so if I lose 6 more pounds I'll be right there. But seriously, is this not one hell of a way to lose weight?!!?

The first 2 weeks i couldnt eat anything,lost 10 pounds,since then,sweets sweets, sweets,ive gained ALOT off weight and cant seem to stop~KIM
Hi everybody, i have read where the sweet cravings is very normal or common. Its like people who quit smoking usually gain some weight. the sweet cravings go away in time. I have them myself. Just go with the flow , you dont want to fight that battle at the same time as wd. thanks.
YES! Tomorrow is 2 weeks clean for me and I have no real appetite to speak of, except I could eat a 5 pound bag of Hershey's kisses. I usually am not a big sweet eater (except when I was pregnant). Glad it's not just me!
I craved sweets when I was using dont even think of them now that im clean
Im almost ashamed to admit this but when Im up at nite I am stuffing my face with ANYTHING SWEET.I hate what Im doing to myself so I am getting a plan of action together,Damn it Im stronger than how Ive been lately,.With all Ive been through I can do what I need to get better.....oops guess I vented a bit sorry
I definitely lost wait going thru the wd's, but have put it all back on and then some. I love sweets, always have, but have been using that as an excuse lately" "If I need to have an addiction, might as well be Ben & Jerry's." I gotta cut back,,,at least we've started to exercise as a family regularly. It's a start.

I have no problem with sweets at all ! I see them and eat them , no problem . I lost fifteen pounds going through withdrawals but have gained it all back . I thought I would just keep gaining but it seems to have leveled off . Rob
when i first started into my recovery,i barely ate anything,wasnt hungry,well,for the past week,since last saturday,i have ate like a pig,dont know why,guess it could be mild depression and im using the food for comfort.i had lost 15 pounds or more,putting me at 115,i dont think i weigh that anymore.oh well,at least my belly is happy:)take care kimber:)
Dear Kimber I think with me it is comfort eating.I meam I only crave the sweets while Im up at nite.I swear I could ear a whole box of twinkees without batting an eye.Just call me 2 ton mj.....lol
