From Fear and Fat to Happy, Joyous, and Free for the Holidays (Nancy, Judy, Susan, Dan K., Deborah, Peter)

The Big Book says we are not a glum lot.  Therefore our speaker feels that if you are using a food plan given to you by a doctor or registered dietitian or nutritionist and if you are under the direction of a sponsor that It is completely possible to spend the holidays not suffering or struggling but being happy joyous and free and often serene.  You may spend it with friends or family spend it on zoom or maybe on your own no matter what it can be just another abstinent day. Our speakers has been abstaining in OA for 44 years and maintains a 150 pound weight loss.  She has served OA on the levels of inner group region and world service.  She is excited to share that she was sponsored by the founder of OA and before that the woman responsible for much of the spiritual content in our bylaws and literature.  She has gathered an exciting panel of extremely diverse abstaining members from southern California to share with us. Someone will share an authentic holiday experience.  All seven will be available for questions time permitting.  We will end with learning the amazing spiritual exercise of building Gods house.  An experience not to be missed!
