I’ve been in a similar program for 30 years and am maintaining a 145 pound weight loss. It saved my life. It may not be for everyone but it’s worked for me and I’m happy.

There is a similar program called Greysheeters Anonymous. Both have online meetings and resources you can check out from home, and local meetings as well depending on where you live.

If you want a good look inside the GA approach, you might want to read Judy Collins's book Cravings.

Does anyone have experience with this group? It's finally becoming clear to me that I have a problem, but I was curious what the group is like and how helpful it is.
