My insanity has to do with how I used food for comfort, my obsessive thoughts over eating it or not eating it, the concept that I would tack on extra time at the gym and then returning to the food even after I intended to be done with it.
Ever felt like food was controlling your life? In this heartfelt episode of 'Promise of Recovery', Avin opens up about her battle with food addiction. She shares how the second step of the Overeaters Anonymous (OA) program—believing in a power greater than oneself—became a turning point in her journey. Avin talks candidly about her obsessive thoughts and behaviors around food, using it as a comfort and feeling like she was losing control over her own body.
Her story is a raw and honest look at the struggle many face with food addiction. The support and honesty she found in OA meetings played a crucial role in her recovery. This episode highlights the importance of acceptance, honesty, and finding a supportive community. Avin's journey is sure to resonate with anyone grappling with addiction and inspire them to seek help and embrace recovery.
