33.75 years abstinent and maintaining121 lb weight loss. Prior to OA I was a nutritional expert gaining and loosing over 700 lbs a little at a time. I knew how to get shinny, but not for long. Heavy I was angry, Thin I was angry. Hmmmm. About the time I was planning my suicide I went to OA. Found people who didn't overeat AND they didn't want to. They had the 12 steps. I have had tragedy and good fortunes and did not turn to the food on either end. I can put an abstinent meal together anywhere in the world. I do not believe I could just go to a couple of meeting a week and maintain my life. It is the whole program. meetings, sponsoring, calls and introspection that works for me and keeps my disease at bay. |
