Books June 8, 2011
The underlined books I recommend to ANYBODY with an eating disorder/ weight problem. These books are helping me change my life for the better, and I want to share that with all of you!!!
When Food is Love - Geneen Roth (this is the best one, I think. It goes good with Why Weight? (a workbook) Also by Roth that I think are good- When You Eat At The Refrigerator Pull Up A Chair, & Women, Food, and God
Eating in the Light of the Moon: How Women can Transform Their Relationships With Food Through Myths, Metaphors & Storytelling - Anita Johnson This book is fabulous! I started reading it last night and couldn’t put it down.
Half Assed: A Weight Loss Memoir - Jennette Fulda
Our Lady Of Weight Loss - Janice Taylor & All Is Forgiven, Move On - Janice Taylor These books are really good if you are a creative and arty sort of person, because they have neat art projects in them. Fun!
Secrets of a Former Fat Girl - Lisa Delaney This one isn’t my favorite of the bunch, but it did have some very useful tidbits in it.
The Earth My Butt and Other Big Round Things - Carolyn Mackler - this isn’t a diet book or anything. It’s actually a book for teenagers, but I really liked it and wished that somebody had given it to me back when I was in junior high. It’s an awesome story about a girl with weight troubles- I WAS the main character when I was that age…
I love your selection here. I will definitely be reading those of which I have not. I’m in the middle of reading Jennette Fuldas book. I like it a lot. She has wit and the same attitude as me as far as life and losing weight goes, haha
so thanks for the selection!
