As of my clean date a year and 10 months ago, I have been steadily gaining weight. I am not obesce but I am overweight and it's bothering me. I am not able to apply the 12 steps on food. I'm in denial. Everyday I tell myself "tomorrow I'll start a diet or a healthy lifestyle." Tomorrow has not come for a while now. I am behaving the same way with food as I was with drugs.
Anyone have similar issues? What did you do about them?
My sponsor suggested i apply the first 3 steps on this issue.
