Whatever gets you through Those Early Days, but as time passes, so you don't die of cardiovascular disease or diabetes- it's probably best to take a deeper look into your relationship with that packet of wagon wheels.
Ever swapped a glass of wine for a bar of chocolate? Vic and Hamish sure have, and in this episode of 'Sober Awkward', they dive into the sticky world of sugar cravings that often follow giving up alcohol. With a mix of humor and honesty, they explore why many who quit drinking find themselves reaching for sweets and what it means for their health.
Vic, a confessed chocoholic, and Hamish, who sneaks cheap Mars Bars, share their personal battles with sugar as a replacement vice. They also look into the science behind sugar addiction, discussing its impact on both the body and mind—from weight gain to mood swings. This episode isn't just about pointing out the problem; it's about finding balance.
Vic and Hamish emphasize the importance of moderation and self-reflection, urging listeners to examine their relationship with food just as they did with alcohol. Whether you're newly sober or have been on the wagon for years, this episode offers valuable insights and plenty of laughs. So grab a sweet treat (in moderation, of course) and tune in to 'Sober Awkward' for a candid chat about sugar and sobriety.
