Struggling

I am a compulsive overeater who has lost and regained quite a lot of weight in my lifetime. In the last 2 years, I have lost about 80 pounds but I still very much struggle with overeating. I have recently began regaining some weight and this has wrecked havoc on me mentally. I know the foods I should avoid but like a lamb being led to the slaughter, I eat them anyway. I am currently working the 12 steps of Overeaters Anonymous. I am trying to regain the healthy diet and exercise habits that I have had in the past. Anyway, this will chronicle my journey to abstain from my trigger foods, no matter how painful that may be. The 1st step is admitting I am powerless over food and that my life has become unmanageable. My life in a food sense has become unmanageable but I know God will deliver me.
