I've been sober for 2 months and have lost over 10 pounds. Maybe it's not just the food

So in January I did a pantry challenge, and I was convinced I was getting fat because I was spending less on food and it must not be healthy enough. I read through a bunch of recipes with new ideas for cheap. I tried new recipes, but I always thought they were lacking. I think I need to learn world cuisines like Mexican, Italian and Korean. My ex husband was Asian, and I always knew he was heavy but thought it was the booze and fast food. Since I left him, I've been steadily gaining. But I think it's all the booze and streaming doing it, not the food. As a single mom working full time, I'd get home from work and sit down and have a bigass daily glass of white wine. I've always thought it was food, because a lot of my favorite recipes had the word "skinny" or "light" in them. The recipe didn't taste good, so it must be the lack of fat. I asked my doctor about pcod and if I need to watch the carbs, but he thinks I just need to lose 15 pounds. As a single mom I don't have any time for working out, so I figured it was just food. I listed all my snacks and I averaged 120 calories per snack and 5 snacks a day. Now I know I could probably cut back on snacks without getting hangry, but another thing I did was quit alcohol. <br><br>I've been tracking my calories and I could cut back on my snacks (the wine is 120 calories per glass). I've also been watching streaming and doing things that don't use the stove. I made popcorn to snack on. I daily made myself a small frozen pizza to snack on while watching. I think the lack of alcohol and streaming and staying busy and I'm almost at my normal weight without pcod or cutting out carbs. <br><br>I just wanted to share that I had a small wake up call. If you cook your food at home, it's probably healthy enough. It's also what you're doing while you're eating.
