Introduction

I'm Anne, a former compulsive overeater. Former? yeah! Over the years, I healed myself. I'd like this blog to be a help community for compulsive overeaters to share, laugh and cry. You never know how you can touch the heart of someone in need of help or even change the course of her/his life. A single word can make a huge difference. 

We do heal from the addiction to food. I did. I am 48 years young and it took me 25 of these years to get out of this hell. 

To any of you who is suffering and wondering how on earth you are going to get out of this, why you are in so much pain and struggling with your eating, at war with your body, your mind and everything else, constantly dieting and bingeing, I promise you, you will get out of it. 

My overeating started when i was about 14 years. I thought I was plump. I loved to eat. I loooooved chocolate and deserts (still do). What happened? I went on my first diet. I lost 4 pounds or so. Waoh! this thing works! I went straight back to my former eating and gained everything back. The second diet was... different. I was in love. For six months. The longest diet I was ever on. When love vanished, so did the diet. And I binged for three months. Before going on a new diet. 

I did not know at the time but the vicious circle was on. I had crossed the doors to hell. 

Rings a bell? 

I'll tell you more about my long story in future postings. 

Take care, Anne
