What attitudes and actions help me remain in recovery?

Sometimes it feels like recovery is our daily cross to pick up and endure. It can be difficult. One wise young woman, in recovery, reminds us that humility is helpful when Walking in Recovery. Have you found certain attitudes and behaviors useful in your personal journey of recovery? If so, please share your ideas with us. We can learn from one another and feel a sense of comraderie just by knowing we are not alone in our struggles with compulsive eating.
