Nirvana - A Glimpse of Survival and Triumph Over Chocolate

You won't want to miss Friday Night's Opening Ceremonies at Region 2's - 2008 Convention in San Jose, "Recovery - Together We Can." A dramatic presentation takes the audience on a roller coaster ride that most of us have been on -- the roller coaster of food, weight, and body size. She finds blissful oblivion in that sweet, rich heaven called chocolate. But her sweet tooth becomes a terrible obsession. She hates her body so she diets, binges, hates herself for binging, and diets some more.

Her whole life is about food, weight, and body size. What would her life be like if she wasn't wishing for a better body? If she could just lose weight, everything would be all right. But would it?

Eventually she discovers how and where to find a true haven of perfect harmony and peace and is able to get off the roller coaster she's been on her whole life. A talented OA member entertains and delights us with her gut wrenching honesty, startling insights, and surprising humor in her story of survival, triumph, and chocolate.
