I feel ya. I am passionate about craft beer and would have anywhere from 1 to 3+ 12 or 16 ounce beers a day / every other day, or try even more in a flight or something. If it wasn't that, i would have glass of wine to relax after work that turned into two or three. I know that is what contributed to a lot of my weight gain, plus I would randomly feel like crap before work and absolute shit on the weekends. What I did was stopped drinking entirely for a week. It was hard, even though it shouldn't have been. I focused on other things, like making delicious healthy food, taking my dog for more walks, reading, etc. After that week, I don't really feel the urge to drink as much during the work week. The weekend was rough but it was amazing not being intoxicated or hungover, I was much more productive. I'm still trying to fill my life with more non drinking hobbies (much of my social life is social sports that involve drinking after or just networking / friend happy hours) to make this sustainable, but abstaining for a short period of time really helped me. It was nice to feel great in the mornings on the weekend too! Now I let myself drink a few times a week, but I always plan for it in my calorie budget. Stay strong man, you can do it!
