Honesty=Humility

yes it does... and being honest I have to mention my lost abstinence- eating cookies compulsively eating other things like corn bread. I define my abstinence as no compulsive eating and no sugar.

The road was paved with lots of bumps and looking backwards I can see how I was getting off the road and onto the grass - by not being in program materials not making phone calls not getting to meetings now that I can not drive . I could blame my surgery I could blame the holidays but really I can only blame me.

I had choices -- I chose NOT to use my recourse's such as the phone and online meetings my sponsor. NO I decided that I could do this I didn't even consult the Lord before eating nope I just did it myself.

So now it is starting over but it is not like being at the beginning because now I have some knowledge - and knowledge is power - while I am powerless over food I have the power to make good choices to make phone calls to attend meetings either on line on the phone or in person.

I have God - He wants me to succeed.
