This book is the only "plan" you'll ever need to get off the dieting roller coaster and become a healthy eater.

Reader Comment:
The quality and truth of this book shocked me. It talked of experiences in the exact way that I myself would explain them, except with a professional yet warm perspective.


5. Anorexia Nervosa: A Guide to Recovery
Anorexia Nervosa: A Guide to Recovery
by
Lindsey Hall, Monika Ostroff

paperback $11

Reader Comment:
I have had anorexia for 11 years. Hall and Ostroff's book helped me to understand that I was not alone, and that I was in charge. Most importantly, and the most difficult issue to deal with, is that anorexia teaches you things about yourself.


6. The Secret Language of Eating Disorders : How You Can Understand and Work to Cure Anorexia and Bulimia
The Secret Language of Eating Disorders: How You Can Understand and Work to Cure Anorexia and Bulimia
by Peggy Claude-Pierre

paperback $11

Reader Comment:
In her book, Peggy describes anorexia as a very slow attempted suicide, a descent toward nothingness---I agree. Anorexia is not a diet, it is not a shallow attempt to be "model thin", and it is definitely not just about food.


7. Breaking Free from Compulsive Eating
Breaking Free from Compulsive Eating
by Geneen Roth

paperback $9

Reader Comment::
She explores the emotional rollercoaster that accompanies this disease and offers many valuable suggestions about how to get off the rollercoaster and let your body take control of your eating.
