Dear TMB,

I went to my first Overeaters Anonymous meeting this morning.  It was very interesting and I think I will probably go back.  I plan to try a different meeting next time to see if this is for me.  I could definitely relate to what some people shared this morning.  It's comforting to know that other people use food and obsess about food the same as I have and/or do.

I'm scared.....hope this helps me. 

Let me know if any of you are members of OA.  I want to know how you feel about the program and if you feel that it's helped.

Thanks a bunch,
Lisa D. Mtz.

hey lisa,
I went to OA the 2 years prior to my surgery and  abotu the 1 six months after. I stopped when i moved to Hou.  I firmly believe in the group i attended and wish everyone comtemplating surgery could/would attend. I never knew there was such a thing as being a compulsive overeater (me) and other people did it too. Didnt realize there was actually an addiction to sugar, carbs food in general. didnt realize i was an addict the same as if it were alcohol or drugs!.  didnt realize i had an addictive personality/behaviors until i went. 
I found OA at the recommendation of my counselor at the time, BTW
feel free to PM me if you need to chat about this further. Be happy to!

When I was born, I cried and the world rejoiced. Now i wanna live my  life so that when I die, the world cries and I rejoice
