It is normal to gain some water wait while detoxing from alcohol. Take a hot bath and when putting lotion on your body instead of rubing from the knee to the foot, rub from the foot to the knee and you can move some of the water weight off and remember to elevate legs when sitting that can help too.

Is stopping the alcohol the only thing you've done to help lose weight?  You also need to eat properly and get some exercise.
