from Mill Creek OA 100 Pounder Speaker Meeting
My mother was Manic/Depressive and a Compulsive Over-eater. When I was 9 , my older 19 Year old brother was hity by drunk driver and was in a coma for 3 months. I needed more allowance to buy more candy. I went to diet DR. at 16. Goal weight in a week. Game on! What ever I did. I didn't look good enough. In 1976 I wen to OA, They sent me to AA and my food took off. Much later (2013)I was working in chemical dependency and weighed 230.. They intervened and sent me to OA. Today abstain from some foods, write it down and eat consciously. Now down 110 lbs. The love, support and inspiration I get in OA keeps my heart open to so much. A home group and Service position keeps me in the middle of the herd.
