I second everything BarB said. And I'll add my congratulations on giving up smoking - that's a hard one - well done!!

I just have a suggestion about the sugar cravings, and that is to try L-Glutamine. It really helped me. Dr A suggests 500 to 1000mg ½ hour before meals, although you can also take it at the time of the cravings.
