Can someone compile a list of books on the subject that also come in audio book form?

Just received: " 8 Keys to Recovery from an Eating Disorder: Effective Strategies from Therapeutic Practice and Personal Experience (8 Keys to Mental Health)"

Got off Amazon. Outstanding book. Nails my eating disorder to a T.

'Brain over Binge' by Kathryn Hansen is interesting and casts a simplistic view on the nature of over eating which I found quite helpful. However, it doesn't really help in the same way that 'Eating Less and saying Goodbye to Overeating' by Gillian Riley did for me a few years ago.

I purchased Ditching Diets by Gillian Riley. HUGE HELP!

The Food and Feelings Workbook: A Full Course Meal on Emotional Health

I recently purchased this workbook through Amazon and it's really been helping me get to the bottom of why I do what I do. I do not write in the workbook in case I need to re-discover things at a later point, but the text is so full of amazing information and things that help you realize you're stronger than you think.

It's full of self-reflection exercises and writing prompts that help you get all of those difficult emotions out there, teaching you how to accept that they are a part of our natural way to navigate our internal selves rather than something we need to bury, stifle, or hide.

I haven't got any more titles to add to the list but i'm going to look some of them up on to find out more about the angle each book takes. There's a couple of things that prompts me to go and seek out a book. Firstly a lot of people saying it was good/helpful. Secondly, know the angle a book is going to take. So please guys if you are offering any more titles, also consider summarising any key point or describing the orientation of the book such as Eddie8131 did above. It really makes things more meaningful.

I will say that having just recovered from a short binge episode and stopping it before it turned into a long one, if i understand you correctly, mimoumoses, i would disagree. Yes habit plays a part but there is a profound emotional element to binging that is not a matter of mere habit. That is to say, in some of us at least, mood matters trigger an increase in appetite which is hard to satisfy. I think there is a physiological aspect to binging but because its below consciousness, it can be hard to appreciate the link unless you study up on the role hormones play in body weight. Resolving the mood issue is the first and most important part of arresting the binge. The second part involves a major change in ones total approach to diet and food. For me the solution has come about through my decision over 9 months ago to quit eating sweets. At or near to the same time as part of my weightloss strategy, i decided to seek out a councillor any time i was under stress or tending towards depression. I've been doing this all year and i can only say, i have made great progress and because of that, i plan to stick with my personal quit sweets diet for life. (note it does not mean i never eat sweets).

I feel I've fallen off the wagon recently again so have ordered a second edition to re-read and I don't think there is another book out there that makes as much sense if I'm honest. The emotional reasons we give for overeating are sometimes just an excuse, they give us permission to over eat and when you start questioning these excuses is when you start to break away from what I truly believe to be nothing more than an addictive habit. Admittedly it is a complex one as the side effects are weight gain and an obsession with food as we still need to eat, but it is a habit nonetheless and all the excuses you hear smokers giving for having 'one more' are the same excuses we latch onto when we reach for another biscuit, then another, then another one... oh well might as well have the whole packet (and then some) and start again tomorrow.

I got Brain over Binge last night and totally devoured it! It makes total sense! I'll finish it today. Thanks so much for recommending it!

I am reading 'brain over the binge' not easy to read, but very helful! it takes sense for me, and from now I have hope to recover from bulimia. this book might be disturbing since it explains very well that you have the choice, and it's you who decides... I used to think that I was powerless and it's getting worse and worse, I told myself I will never ginf the strenght to get out of this trouble but now I know that I can do this!

Hey there I saw Brain over binge, Brain Over Binge the practical guide and Thin side out
Anyone could recommend them? I was wondering if I "need" the guide from BOB if I'm getting the normal book or vice versa?

Any review/recommendaiton welcome - and if you have read all 3, what is essential?

Thank you so information appreciate ♡♡
