Women Food and God by Geneen Roth

I highly recommend this book to anyone.  I was turned off by the title at first but then someone who read it explained to me that this is not about a particular religion or path and the God in the title was not what you would think.
It is a wonderful book that has helped me so much.
Here is a quote from it:

"To discover what you really believe, pay attention to the way you act-and to what you do when things don't go the way you think they should. Pay attention to what you value. Pay attention to how and on what you spend your time. Your money. And pay attention to the way you eat.
You will quickly discover if you believe the world is a hostile place and that you need to be in control of the immediate universe for things to go smoothly. You will discover if you believe there is not enough to go around and that taking more than you need is necessary for survival. You will find out if you believe that being quiet is unbearable, and that being alone means being lonely. If feeling your feelings means being destroyed. If being vulnerable is for sissies or if opening to love is a big mistake. And you will discover how you use food to express each one of those core beliefs. "
