At our meetings we share our experience, strength, and hope in OA. We have found that compulsive overeating is frequently a disease of isolation, that we tend to use food in replacement of appropriate relationships. In the rooms of OA, we can share our true selves along with our experience of recovery.

Crosstalk, advice giving, and feedback on what people say during meetings is discouraged. Only the person sharing his/her own experiences has any clue as to what is really going on. We don't even try to walk in one another's shoes. We find that the most successful groups have provided love and support to other OA members, preferring to let Higher Power and that person solve the issues at hand.
