Looking for a Sponsor

Hi, I'm Owen and I'm a compulsive overeater 👋

I've been going to my local meeting for around 4 months and despite not yet working the steps, have been able to positively change my relationship with food. I've been losing weight in a healthy, consistent way and while I wouldn't describe myself as abstinent, the bingeing that plagued my life for 15+ years is no longer a feature of my daily life. I've been trying to keep to 3 meals a day with nothing in between, which I've managed pretty well.

I love my group, but no one has mentioned that they're open to sponsoring and generally, most of us are quite early in our journeys. It's the only group in my city and I've not yet joined any virtual groups (although I am planning to at some point).

I'm very keen to start working the steps as while I've made great progress overall, I've had a few slip ups here and there and I want to avoid that. I know this programme needs to be a major part of my life and I need a sponsor to help me with that.

I'm a 26 year old LGBT male, and I'm a practicing Christian.

If anyone is opening to sponsoring, or even has any tips on finding one, I’d love to hear from you. Also please let me know if you've any further questions on my situation, I'm an open book!
