I just finished a great book, title "Appetites", by Caroline Knapp. The local library had it. This is not a 12-step book, nor will it tell you specifically how to overcome your eating disorder. But it gives great insight into why women's appetites (all of them) become a battlefield, about the love/hate relationship with our bodies. Beautifully written by an author who herself has struggled with anorexia. I highly recommend it.
