Started as obese kid. At 11 I was in a UCLA program for obese kids. Diagnosed but no solution. 235 @ 13 yrs old

My roommate binge buddy went with me to to OA when I was 19, never been on date and just scared.

After 16 years I had a single fork of a dessert. I was up 100 Lbs in 6 months.

I gained weight on the Weight Watcher's snack bars.

No repercussions (medical, emotional or physical) stopped me from overeating and getting close to death.

My current food plan has to reflect the damage I have done to my body.

I surrendered and have succeeded rather that white knuckling it and failing.

I have to ask 'What would a loving person do?' and then work to act that way.
