[Mandy · Rating 4 out of 5]

A daily reader of short shares from different compulsive overeaters of their experience strength and hope working the OA programme.

[Rowan · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a better written Overeater's Anonymous meditation book, using quotes from the OA literature rather than literary references. It seems better edited than the Overeaters Anonymous Just For Today and is usually pertinent to my recovery and cogent in the meditation. Occasionally some of the Judeo-Christian god concept shows up but not as in-your-face as the JFT is. A helpful recovery tool.

Very inspiring, and these words make you really think.

[Jay Little · Rating 2 out of 5]

As someone who struggles with compulsive eating, I was looking forward to this book, anticipating stories I could relate to. Many of the stories feel extreme or unrelated to the problems I have faced. Rather than comforting, reading this book made me question whether any of us are actually experiencing the same thing or not.

Great for focusing on recovery

Literature is essential for keeping me in the solution. The daily readings are wonderful way to start my day and give me a good guide for my prayer and meditation.

A little blue book with tons to say. Day after day...

Meant to be used as a motivational tool it is similar to the For Today devotional style reader.
