I found that “healthier” brand ice cream stuff and I’ve been eating a lot of that. It’s pretty good and has less calories and fat if you’re worried about that type of thing.

Heck yes, ice cream. Whatever works.
I found like you, I wanted sweets but I also had more energy/interest in exercise sober. In the end it all turned out okay, but happier and sober-er!

A much better choice! I am also a fan of icecream over alcohol. I think I will have some as well when I get home from work. Keeping it simple with just vanilla probably.

Well as an owner of an ice cream 
shop of course it’s ok! 
but in all seriousness I definitely eat more sweets now but its nothing compared to the damage I was doing with alcohol. I do want to cut back though… it’s best I think to take on one thing at a time.

Also, a vote for coffee ice cream. I don’t know why, but it really hits the spot. @Dragonflygirl82 you own an ice cream shop? What town? I’ll drive down and get a couple of pints. How cool! (Pun intended.)

Always ice cream! treat yourself when you can! When i hit my one year I spent 70 bucks on an ice cream bash for my family with the works! Keep up the good work, you CAN do this! Continued luck on your journey.
I’m in Gloucester we are in the final stages of opening. It’s been a fun adventure so far. Eventually we want to make our own ice cream it’s much more profitable

I don’t talk a ton of my personal life on here. I’ve mentioned a couple times about the businesses or working on the shop. But yes it’s all so new as we are just in the final stages of opening… it’s been a nightmare with Covid and regulations and licensing but we are getting there.
