Overeaters Anonymous recovery isn’t comfortable — it’s raw, it’s real, and it will stretch you in ways you never imagined. But growth doesn’t happen in comfort zones. You’ll struggle, you’ll heal, and you will be alright. One day at a time. 🌱

Overeaters Anonymous is a Twelve-Step Fellowship much like Alcoholics Anonymous. It’s our one-day-at-a-time approach plus our members that make us different from other solutions you may have tried. You may not be familiar with a twelve-step program—and that’s okay, we’re here to help!

The goal in recovery is progress, not perfection. Can’t take it one day at a time, take it one hour, or one minute, or one second at a time. The program works if you work it! 😌

Living one day at a time is a helpful mantra for those in addiction recovery for a variety of reasons, including: getting through cravings, any stressful moments, dealing with triggers, and making the notion of lifetime abstinence less overwhelming. In Overeaters Anonymous, members learn a variety of skills and tools that allow them to rebuild lives rooted in health, happiness, and meaning. Focusing on each moment through out the day will help you get passed any obstacles by allowing yourself to recognize, understand, and move on from any struggle— without having to turn to food.

“What sets OA apart from the diets, clubs, and other programs for compulsive overeaters? A faith in a Higher Power that will restore me to sanity. And that Higher Power can be anything I choose it to be. I can choose God as I understand God, not as my parents understand God, or my community, my friends, or even my sponsor. It is my understanding that matters, no one else’s. God comes to each of us in the way we can best understand. I need no formal ritual, no structured prayer to talk to my God today. I need only believe that God is with me, and God is here. I talk to God today as I do to my best friend. I seek guidance, ask for strength, and most of all, I say “Thank You.”
