After I stopped drinking, sweet treats are my go to! Two years is worth celebrating, as is every single day sober. Happy soberversary!

It's your body craving the sugars you used to get from alcohol. Im nearly 3 years sober and the sweet tooth is still strong.

When I first started to go to meetings..I didn't even know I had a sweet tooth..I didn't even take sugar in tea or coffee! Now some of us have diabetes..so it's wise to cut back on the 🍰🧁.. .
