Once I was struggling trying to be on a diet all the time.  I joined a weight loss program, followed their diet, lost the weight and gained it back.  So, I joined a different diet club, lost the weight and gained it back.  Feeling desperate, I rejoined this club, knowing it was not the answer but not knowing what else to do.  About this time I began to hear about Overeaters Anonymous.  I read about it in an Ann Landers column, saw it listed in a self-help column.  And from a friend I heard that she still had a glow on from her O.A. meeting the night before.  I arranged to attend my first meeting with her.  I found my answer, the twelve-step way of life.  Not only is my weight stable, my whole living experience is happier and healthier.  My relationships, my health, my self-image, my sleeping patterns and my energy have all greatly improved.  Am I grateful for finding this O.A. program?  Oh yes!  Would that I had found it sooner!
