Where are you likely to blow your food plan?
All-you-can-eat buffets? Birthday parties?
church socials? Grandma's house? Restaurants
serving everyone who comes in chips
or fresh-from-the oven bread?
One place for me serves foods i can readily choose
but where I went in days gone by exclusively
for their signature ice cream desserts.
For some alcoholics bars may be verbotenAnd some places for us in OA,
but consider what the Big Book tells alcoholics:
So our rule is not to avoid a place where there is
drinking, if we have a legitimate reason for being
there. That includes bars, nightclubs, dances,
receptions, weddings, even plain ordinary whoopee parties.I've been to a place described above as serving baskets of chips...
at a table filled with OA people without issue. Slippery places
may offer secure footing in places where we need to be.
