TOP LINES
In a twelve-step program, you establish “bottom lines.” These are the things that, no matter what, you will not do.
In Overeaters Anonymous these can be not eating Red Light Foods or following an established Food Plan.
In contrast, there are “Top Lines.” These are healthy behaviors you want to encourage.
Here is a sample list of some Top Lines. Which ones do you do? Send your list back to the 12 stepper at communications@oalaig.org with the subject line Top Lines. The responses will be compiled and published in a future 12 stepper.
TOP LINES:
Fifteen minutes of meditation every day. Not less, but not more either.
Work out at the gym twice a week.
Wake up my day and put it back to bed every night, in my journal.
Look at my wife once every day with my real eyes, with the heart that lives behind my eyes.
Take Sunday completely off. I mean completely. No screens whatsoever. Give the eyes a rest from that particular platform. Swim in nature. Take a forest bath. Look up at the sky. Or lie down in leaves. Or both.

You're Not Alone
If you’re struggling with food—whether it’s compulsive eating, bingeing, restricting, obsessing, or anything in between—welcome. Overeaters Anonymous is a Fellowship of people who share a common problem and are finding a common solution through the Twelve Steps. There's no cost to join, no weigh-ins, and no judgment. Just people who’ve been where you are, and who are walking a path of physical, emotional, and spiritual recovery together—one day at a time.
We hope you’ll stay for the miracle.

Delegates Corner
Each OA meeting is encouraged to send a Delegate to the monthly Intergroup meeting—typically held at 10:15 AM on the third Saturday of the month. Any OA member may attend, but Delegates have a vital role: they carry their meeting’s group conscience to Intergroup and bring back important updates to their group.
