My issue wasn't overeating, but it was definitely an eating issue. When I was drinking, I didn't eat - even though I was cooking dinner! - and I lost enough weight that hospitalization was suggested. So I regularly went to OA my first few years in AA since I needed the support and the guidance.
My sponsor took me to all the A's - We did AA, OA, Alanon and Coda (which my sponsor ran, Codependents Anonymous, so I went there, too). And I joined ACOA (Adult Children of Alcoholics) on my own.
I continued with AA and ACOA until the pandemic hit and so many groups shut down. But a friend from my home group also attended an AA meeting that was still active up north, so I started attending that one and a new group associated with that one that I somehow became responsible for which I went to and led earlier tonight. There were only 4 of us tonight, but it only takes two to make a meeting. I may have 13 years, but I know those with over 40 years who still regular attend meetings. It's not only important that I not forget, but that I pay it forward, so I intend to attend meetings and work a program for the rest of my life.
