Overcoming Overeating
E-mail Discussion Groups
The Overcoming Overeating e-mail discussion lists provide an ongoing support group for people who are using the Overcoming Overeating approach to cure their compulsive eating and end body hatred and dieting. It is a great opportunity for discussion about how to implement these principles in our every-day lives and work towards achieving self-acceptance. It is also a way to be plugged into information about events and developments in the anti-dieting movement - in particular, The Women's Campaign to End Body Hatred and Dieting.
NOTE: These lists are about working the Overcoming Overeating approach specifically as outlined in the books "Overcoming Overeating" and "When Women Stop Hating Their Bodies" by Jane Hirschmann and Carol Munter. If you have not read one of these books (or don't plan to in the near future) and you are not applying the approach as outlined in the books, then these lists are not for you!

Advanced OO E-mail List
This group is for anyone who is actively using the Overcoming Overeating non-diet tools presented in the book "When Women Stop Hating Their Bodies" (Hirschmann/Munter). The list member is less frequently using food as a primary source of self-soothing, and is ready to focus on the emotional triggers that lead to overeating and the painful emotions and life experiences that brought us to overeating as our coping mechanism. Beginners are welcome to lurk or participate in the discussions, but should remain on the primary OO list to get support while they learn and practice the tools of recognizing stomach hunger and mouth hunger, legalizing, stocking up, food bags, mirror work, etc. Advanced list members are urged to also remain on the primary OO list to support, encourage and inspire those undertaking the difficult task of ending their overeating.
