I met you several years ago 
When I was very overweight 
I wasn’t very confident
But meeting you was fate.

I didn’t really think that I 
Could have any success
My personal life was horrible 
I felt like such a mess. 

You were very encouraging 
You told me I should try
To set some small achievable goals
I had to walk before I could fly. 

I kept coming to your meetings
Even when I felt bad 
That I’d binged out of control 
And didn’t use the tools I had. 

Eventually I began to do the work 
And the pounds started going away.
I also got rid of a bad situation. 
Things were getting better, hooray!

Now I’m at a size I want to be
I truly am successful 
I rarely turn to my binge eating 
When my life is getting stressful. 

I don’t know where I’d be
Without you on my side
I wouldn’t be able to look in the mirror 
And feel such wonderful pride.
