It worked very well. I felt more structured when I had to phone my sponsor daily with my food plan but eventually I found the whole thing too controlling.

have a sponsor and a small group in my town with good recovery. i love it.

There is not an OA around where I live.

not working

it works if you work it

I attend weekly meetings. Got a sponsor who is helping me learn new way of reacting to life through the 12 steps. It is amazing what I am learning about me.

I have a serious problem with food! I use food for anything but nutrition!

Been in program since July 27, 2007. Has helped give support and tools for dealing with negative emotions and experiences. Works if you work it. I enjoy connecting with spirituality and going to meetings to meet people who understand my experience and are willing to listen and help where they can. It is not easy, you must do the work required but when I do and i'm commited to abstinent eating as a way of life,itworks and i'm able to stop bingeing.Great program compulsive overeaters and addicts.

not working---

OA has saved my life...focuses on the addiction and compulsion side of the eating..helps to hear others who suffer find a path that works

intend to start going to OA once I have been sober a bit longer... gotta work on one thing at a time

It's a great program if you're willing to work the steps, which I wasn't.

I used to go to online meetings until my computer broke. Have not been to a face to face in a long time - need to go

It works if you work it, and is the only guarantee recovery from compulsive overeating for me.

16 months into recovery and lots to learn about myself
