QUESTION: Well I'm still a teen and I am a bit obese but I really want to lose weight. Because I severed for anorexia I can't seem to find anything that doesn't trigger that old me. Is there something I could do without triggering that?

ANSWER: yes, Mattanja, go to WWW.oa.org and check out the website. OA may help you with the thinking, as you find a plan of eating that helps you to lose weight in a healthy way. There are phone meetings everywhere, as well as local meetings. I think you'll be very happy with what you see there. If you want more help, please let me know. I'd love to hear back to see what you think of OA.
