“True comfort is to be found in the balance and sanity of abstinence. So deep and pure is this comfort that it is well worth whatever trouble or pain I might have to pass through to attain it.” ~ Overeaters Anonymous. For Today, p. 253

Abstinence in Overeaters Anonymous
is the action of refraining
from compulsive eating
and compulsive food behaviors
while working towards
or maintaining a healthy body weight.
Abstinence is sanity, liking who I am.
Abstinence is a lifeboat! I’ll stay in the lifeboat!”
Thank God for true comfort and lifeboats.
