I Don't Need This Quiz
I don't have to take this quiz to know that I'm addicted to food. I think I answered yes to every question. But hey. It's not all bad. They say when you can admit that you have a problem, you can do something about it. Right? Right?
Do you know that there's a Food Addicts in Recovery Anonymous? I didn't. And it appears they have a meeting near here.
OK. I went to the site and had a look at it. They follow the 12-Step Program of AA. My biggest problem with this is the very first step—Admitting that I am powerless over food. Am I really powerless over it? I hope not. I don't want to give my power to a donut. Shouldn't I be saying: I have the power to overcome my addiction to food?
Despite that—I like the taking it one day at time part. Just for today I will eat healthfully and pass up the candy, cookies, whatever. Just for today I can get up to go exercise. Anyway, I'm still researching.
My sister just said: Changing a habit is really changing your mind.
