SOLUTIONS The Basics of How it Works

Contrary to common belief, it is the first compulsive bite that does the damage. It sets off a craving that we often find insatiable. This is particularly true about trigger foods.

Abstinence is a powerful concept we in OA use to arrest our diease of compulsive overeating.
We do so by practicing the 12 step programme.

Attending meetings and working with a sponsor who has been successful with her or his programme are other powerful tools we use in the OA programme.
