Overeaters Anonymous is a Fellowship of individuals who, through
shared experience, strength and hope, are recovering from compulsive
overeating.
-
We welcome everyone who wants to stop eating compulsively.
-
There are no dues or fees for members; we are self-supporting
through our own contributions, neither soliciting nor accepting
outside donations.
-
OA is not affiliated with any public or private organization,
political movement, ideology or religious doctrine; we take no
position on outside issues.
-
Our primary purpose is to abstain from compulsive eating and to
carry this message of recovery to those who still suffer.
-
Wondering if OA is
for you? Many members of OA have answered YES to these 15
questions.
-
In Overeaters Anonymous we use the 12 Steps
and 12 Traditions as well
as the Tools of Recovery to help
us with our personal recovery. Additionally, to help motivate us, we share our favorite sayings.

Dallas Metroplex Intergroup (DMI) is a service body of Overeaters Anonymous. DMI carries the message of OA to the greater Dallas area* by maintaining and distributing
