Do I believe only an honest admission to myself of the reality of my condition can save me from my destructive eating? Why?

6. Do I believe only an honest admission to myself of the reality of my condition can save me from my destructive eating? Why?

Absolutely - Admitting it to my sponsor, to friends and to others in OA do not make it happen, only to solidify resolve. If I haven't admit to myself and accepted that many parts of my life are out of control - unmanageable - then I will never do anything to release my weight and to recover my life.

I understand that this is life changing process - not just getting control of my eating. The eating is more of a demonstration/edification of my condition. If I had other vices - drinking, drugs, even sexual addictions - they would also be out of control.

What if I didn't accept the reality of my condition? What would things be like? Would I be able to release my weight and be able to recover my life? Not likely. What else do I have to do to make things better?
