I have paid to be here for a full year.
I am not leaving. I’m just getting extra help.
I will be doing the 5 bite diet

Thank you Dr Lewis.
OA does not have or support any type of diet.
It is mostly working on problems that cause you to overeat. I have found so far,
I’m a people pleaser. I will do anything for people to like me and I never say NO. They are wonderful and will help me learn what my triggers are that cause the Binging. Conquering Things like this…[Read more]

Arghhhh.
I tried to have an afternoon with friends, but I ate too MUCH.

Lunch: 5 bites of a biscuit with walnut

You are always SUPPORTIVE and SPECIAL.

Shelly, I always want you to pursue whatever you think will work for you.

Do not leave.
Be strong!

Thank you for responding to my dilemma. I’m all good til dinner/ evening, then it goes downhill from there. So, every night I think to myself I’ll start tomorrow!!!

Kathe
