Some of us have been diagnosed as morbidly obese while others are undereaters. Among us are those who were severely bulimic, who have harmed themselves with compulsive exercise, or whose quality of life was impaired by constant obsession with food or weight. We tend to be people who, in the long-term, have failed at every solution we tried, including therapy, support groups, diets, fasting, exercise, and in-patient treatment programs. <br /><br />FA has over 500 meetings throughout the United States in large and small cities such as Boston, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Charlotte, Grand Rapids, Atlanta, Fort Lauderdale, Austin, and Washington, D.C. Internationally, FA currently has groups in England, Canada, Germany, New Zealand and Australia. If you would like more information about FA, please check out our website at www [dot] foodaddicts [dot] org. If there aren’t any meetings in your area, you can contact the office by emailing FA at foodaddicts [dot] org, where someone will help you.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-62815999999164414242014-04-10T21:01:59.906-07:002014-04-10T21:01:59.906-07:00Hey thanks so much!!

You must have so many good feelings about it. And, about "Recovery"... Recovery is a life long journey for people who have addictive personalities because we probably carry these personalities for a long long time... Maybe, some will disappear throughout recovery but some will stick with us. Free from food obsession is a beginning of the journey, although it seems like the end when we start :) My sponsor from the program has told me that I start to recover when I am lifted from my obsession, and I know what she means. There are many long timers in the program who no longer have weight or food issues, because we all know that we need to be reminded ourselves that we all struggled at some points of our past. It brings humility, compassion to the others, gratitude and etc. It keeps strengthen our own recovery. This is mainly the reason why I belong to the program. Focus is not on the substance, but get well in life. <3 artytechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18023746097803453938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994608397400149752.post-16589218874721725862013-12-18T08:53:18.003-08:002013-12-18T08:53:18.003-08:00Congratulations - you have clearly come so far and...Congratulations - you have clearly come so far and that is no small feat.
