Yes, please do check out those books. I too had problems with compulsive overeating, binging, purging, as well as anorexia. This has been going on with me since age 10yrs when I started dieting (I'm now 37yrs). I'm currently seeing a therapist but still find it a struggle every day.
One thing you mentioned re. your eating habits are the sweets. I've found that when I indulge in sweets I crave them even more. Once I take a "sugar holiday" then my body doesn't seem to ask for it. Maybe that's something you can try...at least cut back a little bit on the sugar laden foods.
Do you keep a food journal? it's just another tool I've found helpful in my own life--it really keeps me accountable to what I've been eating.I really wish you all the best.
