have a read of some of this website

http://thedietguy.co.uk/

he really can help with how you think about yourself. The most important thing is to not think of a diet as punishment, painful, torture, some kind of 'prison' because you will eventually break out and do all the things you are supposed not to.

I'm reading this book and I never realised that stuff I feel (particularly the perfectionism stuff) was so relevant to my life and my weight.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy: Your Route Out of Perfectionism, Self-Sabotage And Other Everyday Habits


This is from Amazon:

"What happens to you in life matters less than the way you feel about life: that′s the message of cognitive behavioural therapy. If you′ve ever tried to change something about yourself – your mood, your weight, your behaviour – you′ll have noticed that change often hurts, so you stop trying. CBT can help you when change starts to hurt.
In this book, professional CBT practitioner Avy Joseph shows you how to challenge negative thoughts and unhealthy beliefs to improve your outlook in your personal and professional life. Whether you want to break the spiral of depression, anxiety or guilt, achieve work–life balance or make an important change, this book will help you reach your goals and maintain a positive outlook – no matter what life throws at you.
Remember: It′s you – not your circumstance – that holds the key to change. Don′t limit yourself."
