Baton Rouge Intergroup of Overeaters Anonymous
What is OA? |
Overeaters Anonymous is...
a fellowship of individuals who, through shared experience, strength and hope, are recovering from compulsive overeating. We welcome everyone who wants to stop eating compulsively. There are no dues or fees for members; we are self-supporting through our own contributions, neither soliciting nor accepting outside donations. OA is not affiliated with any public or private organization, political movement, ideology or religious doctrine, we take no postion on outside issues. Our primary purpose is to abstain from compulsive overeating and to carry this message of recovery to those who still suffer. |

The OA recovery program is...
patterned after that of Alcoholics Anonymous. We use AA's Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, changing only the words "alcohol" and "alcoholic" to "food" and "compulsive overeater." |
