One year abstinence in Overeaters Anonymous..

[Stuart G]

(same as a year sober in AA)

That is one year without any candy, chocolate, icecream, cookies, pies, cakes, and sherbet. no sugared drinks.
That for me is a miracle. Call my sponsor often, and pray every day. My weight is as it was a year ago.
While I still occasionally overeat, my abstinence could not have been accomplished with the program , my fellows in OA, and my higher power.
I am so greatful.

.................thank you all :grouphug:

The sugar was just as hard as my addiction to drugs. In some ways, harder.. I am so greatful.
Just knowing you are here is very important to me, even though I don't vist so often.
We need each other..thanks for being there for me.
