I'm curious about Overeaters Anonymous. Are there those out there who have benefited from it?
I have recently moved. In the past three years, I lost 30 pounds. I also had major surgery, let my body go after the surgery, and I have put the weight back on. It bothers me.
Given that I have moved to a new place, I have noticed that I tend to "binge" when loneliness sets in.
Any suggestions?

I also was interested in OA,but when I researched it I found that there was none in my area. I believe it is run like AA meetings and you follow the twelve step book and join together with other members to help one another stay in control. Caroleshy

I wanted to join OA too. I'm a teen though and i was afraid that there wouldn't be any other teens there. There is a sight online if you look it up and you can find out when and where there are ones near you.

I not only overeat, but somedays especially today I was non-stop eater. I walked around the kitchen all day looking for something to eat or snack on. Somedays I just feel like I will never feel full. My husband even told me I will never be able to go on a diet like that...Sheesh thanks :(

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
