I just posted these books in a separate thread but thought others may also benefit from them as well. I have been seeing a therapist for my bipolar disorder over the past few years and she has been instrumental in helping me cope with the changes in my mind and body since the sleeve. There are two books she suggested to me that I will recommend to other fellow sleevers who struggle with eating and mental health:
Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think by Brian Wansink
Changing Our food, Changing Ourselves: Women, Food, Relationships, & Culture by Karen Burke
These have been very insightful and have helped me gain a better understanding of why we eat.
