You asked about my story...
I'm 44, live a couple hours east of Toronto with my husband and cat. The story is nothing unique, the usual one of yo-yo dieting that goes up and up and up until I was somewhere over 300 with hypertension and type 2 diabetes. Dysfunctional family with a fair bit of addiction in the closet, you've heard it many times before...
Right now (11/05) I'm maintaining a weight of
just under 150 for around a year and a half, having come to OA almost
3 years ago. With a higher power's help I will celebrate a year of
abstinence from binge eating in January. I'm still struggling with
my fat head, expect to do that forever, but I finally feel like I'm gaining
some maturity and actually getting glimpses of the emotional and spiritual
problems that underlie that neverending quest for the next bite.
