Guest guest Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 It's neat to hear the sharing from Becky and Tai and others. I thought about OA over the past few days, since it came up in discussion. Honestly, it feels odd to think of myself as a compulsive overeater these days. Every day I get better and better...not wanting dessert just because it's there, not needing to stuff myself every day. Last week I was eating in a school cafeteria, and way overate. And my jeans feel a little tight. But...I'm right back in my plan...took a nice walk yesterday, had some ice cream today, but nourishing myself and not worrying. It feels SO GOOD to be liberated from my negative mindset about food. SO GOOD. So...should I try OA? Nope. It's not necessary. Thank the Universe I'm daily freed from the compulsive eating habits of my past...and even when they creep up I can view them with compassion, care, kindness, etc. In other words, I " M FAR from perfect. I DO eat compulsively at times. But, then again, so do most friends I know. It's normal to overeat on occasion...and then to go back to normal eating patterns. Such a great feeling.
