Guilt Free

Freedom from the guilt of overeating—what a concept!

Before OA, guilt wrenched me. It was my fault I was fat and unable to do something about it. I’m glad I jumped out of that depressing cycle.

Without the guilt I can focus on recovery, which should have been my primary concern anyway! The path of recovery led me to eat three meals a day and cut out all trigger foods. I cannot say I am perfect, but I am on the right track. I keep coming back for the support. I cannot do it alone.
