After a few months of drinking nothing but sparkling water I stopped craving alcohol completely and now I just drink regular water and sometimes coke zero. You need to be lifting weight to gain muscle mass and doing cardio for so many reasons they are hard to count.
Hard cardio makes your lifts and recovery stronger and easier allowing you to push harder while lifting and that directly translates to more gains.
It improves your body's ability to burn fat and also increase post exercise oxygen consumption burning fat in your sleep (just like lifting).
It gives you the energy to endure hard days in the gym which let's face it at your weight youre going to have. Don't skip cardio.
