books to help us on our journey...

hey guys and gals,
ive been thinking that while in on my "time-out" as ive begun to call it that id like to read some books to do with, mindful eating and why we overeat and establishing the connections between food and emotions etc etc..
i was just wondering has anybody read or heard about any good books that we could buy that are any good with educating us on these things??
thanks in advance..... bells x

Not sure about the mind over matter type books but the GI diet by Rick Gallop gives you a lot of info that can help when on maintenance. It encourages switching hi-carb things for low-carb alternatives e.g. brown bread with high fibre content instead of white etc. It also encourages that half your plate be greens/veg, one quarter be protein and the other carbs/starch etc. I found it really good as it is similar to maintenance meals and theres a lot of nice recipes in there.

thanks cathy, i should also have written that any good recipe healthy choice book ideas are welcome too!.x

Anything by Gillian Riley's worth a read - good on the emotional links to overeating...
