I’ve been struggling with very similar issues. I’d always been able to eat whatever the hell I wanted, but the magical 4-0 seems to have changed that. The more concerned I got, the more I found myself obsessing about chocolate and ice cream! AND, once I started, the phenomenon of craving took over! UGH!
I actually attended an OA meeting with another AA’er who attends both programs, but it was a bit too regulated for me. It did help get me started though. I’ve been able to use some of my AA tools to combat the craving and obsessing. You’re right, the more tools we have in our tool kit, the easier it is to find one that fits the job.
Thanks for the post!
