    Hello Everyone.

    Firstly thank to to larry for creating this oasis of support and information and sharing his story with us all. I have battled COE for several years, tried FA last year which was moderately successful, but need help again and am ready to fully surrender to the Higher Power and begin 90 abstinance.

    I have no god, no spirtual or religous inclinations, so my personal Higher Power is my Food Plan and the thoughts of evreyone in the group who reads this. In the UK there are no groups near me so I have no sponsor .

    If any kind person reading this is able to sponsor me online I would be so very grateful. So today I started with the serenity prayer, I have examined the 12 steps and planned and weighed my food. Wishing you all Serenity, Courage and Wisdom, one day at a time.

    Good Morning!

    Glad to see you here at the "OASIS"....Love that term.

    So sorry to hear that you have no resource for meetings. Suffer from the same when I travel north for the summer. But, that won't happen again. Working with my sponsor to possibly start a chapter. As he says, 'if you can read you can lead'. Doing an intense winter with the group/sponsor.

    Would love to communicate, share and support.

    Hi,

    I am very glad to find this group. I have been away from OA and have just returned. I am 55-years-old and need to lose over 150 pounds. I simply want to achieve some balance and gain my health. I want to use mfp to look at my eating and food. I need OA to surrender and to have the support of others who know what it is like to be helpless and hopeless against COE.

    Thank you for starting this group.
