Utah Soaring OA Intergroup
Introduction
Overeaters Anonymous (OA) helps people who struggle to control their eating habits. It is a community in which people support and guide each other towards recovery, addressing not just the physical but also the emotional and spiritual aspects of the problem.

Our Purpose
Our primary purpose is to abstain from compulsive eating and to carry the message of recovery through the Twelve Steps of OA to those who still suffer.
Many Symptoms, the OA Solution
We are a group of individuals who have struggled with compulsive eating disorders. Our group is open to anyone who wants to quit eating this way. Our members come in all shapes and sizes, from very heavy to underweight. We’ve all experienced different symptoms, like obsessing over our bodies, binge eating, not being able to stop eating, working out excessively, making ourselves vomit, taking diuretics or laxatives, and turning to food for solace. Some of us have constantly thought about food or daydreamed about eating. If you need help with compulsive eating, we’re here for you.
Member Thoughts
Here are some comments by OA members on their experience with the program. We have a principle of anonymity, so we give only the first name and surname initial. Pictures are obscured, so faces are not recognizable.
