It wasn't for me. I didn't connect to the 12 steps method.

it was so many years ago. I was young. It worked but I just eventually quit going

Worked somewhat 20 years ago
Will be going again tomorrow 7am

I have just decided to start going

Kept going in and out of the program because I found it so hard to get abstinent.

it worked but the group went away

it works but it's constant work and concentration on the tools and I keep failing but I grew up a lot from it

I have been on program for 2 months and have lost 28 pounds. It is a completely different program than any of the MANY others I have tried. It isn't just a diet, although almost everyone who joins thinks it is when they arrive the first day. There are reasons each of us lives a life of food addiction. OA aids in complete recovery - not just weight loss, which actually becomes somewhat of a side effect to food addiction recovery. It is hard work, but the personal growth and development is amazing

Felt uncomfortable and it wasnt for me

I have been a member on and off for 19 years with varying degrees of success. I cannot find OA members like me. I have never been morbidly obese, but I have binged at night for years. Most successful members have been morbidly obese and have lost 100 lbs or more by restricting sugar and flour.
