i bought Sophie Dahl's recent book, which is mostly recipes,interspersed with her thoguhts on food. Ultimately, she came to realise that eating should still be enjoyable, in other words don't get hung up about wehte your proteins are equal to your carbs, don't cut anything out unless you really really have a proper allergy to casein or whatever and that it really is about moderation and making peace with your food. i also read Monica Seles autobiography, when she realised that so often she was eaing for no reason and it took a different mindset for her to be able to lose wight.

It's interesting that both women had to slow their lives down to enable that mindset to come to the fore. Can't find the brakes for my 100mph life at the moment.

Can recommend both books both from a reading perspective and some nice recipes as well as from having an insight into how they changed their diet mentality.
