Blog, I resonate with your posts so much. Ben and Jerry lie to you about how good they are. They really, for me, mean misery, isolation, and an early death. I am glad you are choosing not to try it once. I can appreciate the sadness and the desire to try it though.
Last week I celebrated a year of abstinence. As of this morning, I have lost over 100 lbs. My story, (the weight part) part is chronicled here in the 100 lb. section. I came to OA the first time about 1980. I eventually relapsed but am now again living a life free from the bondage of food addiction. I am no longer living a life of chronic loneliness and isolation. I am freaking miracle.
Thank you God and Overeaters Anonymous.
