I definitely waited about 8 weeks before my first drink, now i can't seem to stop drinking, i need to stop bc i'm afraid of what the consequences will be later on. I have a very stressful job so at night i like a vodka and crystal light, definitely will stop from today forward. maybe i should start working out instead drinking :-)

Your fat cells have a buttload of stored hormones in them so as your body uses them for fuel these hormones are released and flood you it throws your levels out of whack for a while.
It’s the same reason you have major mood swings for a while too its just hormone overload and your body processing them and getting to grips with it.
