Have you been worried about the way you eat? Do you resolve to go on a diet tomorrow, only to fail again? Is our weight affecting the way you live your life? If you are struggling, you are not alone anymore. We are men and women-obese, anorexic, bulimic, or of normal weight-from around the world who are recovering from compulsive eating. Our food behaviors include: obsession with body weight size and shape; eating binges, grazing, preoccupation with weight-reduction diets, starving; including vomiting after eating; constant preoccupation with food; inability to stop eating after taking the first bite; and over exercising. Our symptoms may vary, but we share a common bond: We are powerless over food and our lives are unmanageable. Typically, we have tried numerous solutions to our problems with food, including years of diets or exercise. In our Fellowship, we have finally found a solution. Many of us have maintained a normal weight and found freedom from compulsive eating for many years. Physical, emotional, and spiritual recovery is offered thought attending meetings, practicing a Twelve Step program, and helping others. If you feel you are one of us, we welcome you with open arms!
