Warning, Warning this episode may have you craving sweet treats!

In this episode, the ladies talk about Sugar Cravings in Recovery. 

The ladies discuss the science behind WHY you crave sugar and also what they did with their cravings.  

Both ladies agree that they did whatever it took and ate the sugar those first few years. 

They didn't worry about the weight gain(many concerns of women in early recovery) because they both knew staying sober was the most important.  Also, give yourself some grace; you are doing one of the hardest things on the planet!

We hope you enjoy this conversation!
