Hi,

I'm Jenna, I'm 20 years old and I'm an overeater....I don't really know what I'm looking for out of this forum, I suppose I just want to know that I'm not alone. I just looked at the OA website and there was a lot about God in the program, that doesn't seem like it is for me. I have never told any of my friends or family that I'm an OA, so I suppose thats why I joined this forum. I don't know what I'm doing...maybe I'm just venting...I'm not sure....
 
It's okay. :) You should start a diary and vent your heart away! Everyone needs a place to feel safe with their insecurities. So, welcome!

Thank you. I've never admitted to anyone about my weight issues, I think its funny now that the first time I write it down is on the internet, I would never even say it outside the saftey on my own head and now to put it out there on the internet is a risk. but i feel better about writing it here, i can voice it in a way that comfortable for me and im not screaming it from the top of a building, but its a start...
 
I'd personally avoid any structured system for help such as OA, a lot of these organisations prey on people who are in need of help with religious motivations and that's not what you need, AA is very similar, it's very sneaky and subversive. if you feel you absolutely need help from an organisation like that then find a secular equivalent.

You can get support at places like forums such as here, with friends, and losing weight once you're informed about how to do it, is actually pretty easy.
