The All New Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Take Action Series: Take control of overeating and emotional eating
Do you ever feel out of control with your eating?
Are you tired of struggling with food and your weight?
Join me for my Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Take Action Series and make 2010 your best year ever.
Struggles with food and overeating wear women out. They erode self esteem and over time, can even affect our ability to move forward confidently in other areas of our life.
The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Take Action Series, a comprehensive, psychologist-designed program, was designed with the busy professional or self-employed woman in mind.
If weight is an issue for you, emotional eating is likely a big part of it.
• Do you eat when you are overwhelmed, stressed or tired?
• Do you eat for comfort or to celebrate?
• Do you have too many times when the nicest thing you can do for yourself involves carbs and calories?
Most women know what they “should” be doing to take charge of their weight and their eating. The challenge is IMPLEMENTING and finding a plan that you can stick with.
Here’s the real truth. If you don’t address the reasons that you are turning to food—the stress, the overwhelm, the emotions, worries, and needs that drive you to the kitchen—the weight struggles aren’t going to end.
The All New Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Take Action Series
Designed to help you take control of overeating—once and for all—in a way that works for you and your life.
• The program is designed to meet you where YOU are in your journey towards change. At every step, you are asked to listen to yourself and are shown how to develop goals and plans that suit your needs, your preferences and your schedule.
• The program helps you identify what you need to know about YOUR eating and your weight issues.
• MOST IMPORTANTLY, the program teaches you how to identify and develop the tools and activities you will need to make your changes permanent and enduring.
If you are looking for another six week crash diet program, this is NOT the program for you.
This program is not about deprivation or going hungry. It is not about counting calories or carbs or fat grams.
The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ shows you how to feed yourself in a way that is really truly satisfying. A major rule in this program is to respect your hunger and to feed yourself in the MOST SATISFYING WAY POSSIBLE. Please understand: this is not another diet.
• Learn what triggers your eating and identify strategies that will work for you to take control of overeating and emotional eating.
• Learn the tricks to feeding yourself–really feeding yourself–so that you don’t go hungry and you don’t overeat.
• Learn the tools that create powerful and enduring changes.
• Conquer your emotional eating challenges at home, at your own pace.
How It Works:
The foundation of the program is my Emotional Eating Toolbox™ 28 Day Daily Action Plan Program. The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ is a daily action plan. It literally walks you through, step by step, the specific tasks, exercises, questions and challenges you need to undertake to escape from yo-yo dieting, food obsession, binge eating, or feeling out of control with food.
All participants in the Take Action program will receive a copy of the The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ and the companion CDs ($139 value). I’ll show you how to set up the program and begin learning to implement the tools and the strategies into your life.
You won’t have to go it alone, but if you are a private person (and even if you aren’t) you won’t need to bare your soul either. This program has been designed to offer you a customized program that you create on a day-by-day basis (by following the easy-to-use structure of the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ program), plus in depth teleseminars focused on the nitty gritty of taking control of emotional eating and creating more effective solutions for yourself.
“This program has been life changing. So many programs only scratch the surface–and I’ve tried lots of them. When I think of the thousands of dollars I’ve spent in gyms and programs–I could have bought a car–and here comes this program that makes it so simple, that lays it right out. Melissa McCreery has topped an industry that has made millions for the many weight loss gurus who think they have the answer, but who has not yielded the results… She’s on to something big! Hats off to her!” Emotional Eating Toolbox™ user Juliet, Naperville, Illinois
“I was stuck. Stuck in a rut…stuck in life…stuck being unhappy about my choices. Food was the way I coped sometimes. . . Your class really helped me realize that when I get bored, I eat. Then, I feel guilty and horrible about myself for eating that cookie and eat again to make myself feel better. . . Your class taught me to recognize the problem at hand that makes me want to eat, and then gave me the tools to handle it. I can’t think of a better course than that!!”Ronda Stephens-Auclair Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Group Participant, owner of www.MoreThanAMouse.com
“Melissa, I can’t tell you have much I’ve gained since I “met” you & started using your Emotional Eating Toolbox™. I was skeptical about the program at first because you didn’t give me the “answers” up front—you don’t say, ‘Here are the 10 steps to follow & voila! You’re cured.’ Instead, you gave me simple, non-time-consuming tools which taught me about myself… What I discovered by using the tools in the Emotional Eating Toolbox program is that I have a host of hungers (for friendship, for sleep, for relief of anxiety, for relaxation as well as for physiological nourishment). It was so obvious that food didn’t solve the real problem of loneliness, fear or whatever. Through the program, I found and started using other better options. The way you helped us set goals & be accountable for our actions was a big help. I don’t think I’d have done it if left to my own devices. I cannot believe how much my behavior has changed over time. One small step at a time really adds up to some big changes!’” Marcy L., Florida
The Take Action Program includes 6 weekly teleclasses, led by me. 
In each hour-long class, we’ll address an important tool or aspect of making peace with food and breaking free of vicious cycles with weight. There will be some opportunities for laser coaching, but you’ll also be free to simply hang out and listen. Either way, the content will be information-rich and designed to help you stay motivated, move through the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ program, and work through your own individual challenges and hurdles. Because these are teleseminars, your participation can remain completely confidential.
I know that you are busy. You don’t have to attend each of the actual calls (although I recommend you come if you can). I’ll be recording all the teleseminars and all participants will receive downloadable recordings so that you can attend class on your own time or listen again later to reinforce your learning.
The Take Action Classes will augment the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ program. Our agenda will remain somewhat flexible to meet your needs, but here is the working agenda:
• Week One: Getting started with the Toolbox; getting in touch with hunger and fullness, the tools for getting past guilt, shame, and self-judgment and how to use them.
• Week Two: What’s driving your eating? How to meet your needs without turning to food and overeating. Ten strategies for avoiding emotional eating.
• Week Three: Tweaking the toolbox to work with your life, stuck spots, self-sabotage, inner critics, and identifying what needs to happen FOR YOU so that you make the lasting progress you want to make.
• Week Four: Self care and making time for yourself: how to fit it all in.
• Week Five: Achieving your healthy lifestyle: How to set goals and how to avoid the traps smart women set for themselves.
• Week Six: What Else Do I Need? Crafting a Plan For Enduring Change. How to create action when you feel stuck / Laser Coaching
“The Coaching Clubs have been a valuable experience for me. The insight from Melissa and the other members has changed the way i see myself and how I approach my weight loss goals. Finally after many years of being stuck, I feel I have the tools to make changes and have found a community of women to support those changes with their compassion, experiences and humor.” Rosemarie, New York
“The journey towards getting my eating under control is a long one, BUT it’s taken me 50 years (think of that!!) to develop all these unhealthy habits. I’ve tried and abandoned many many approaches. Melissa’s methods make sense, are understandable, and if I do my part, I’m sure I’ll have much greater control over my mindless and instinctive approach to eating This IS a journey, for sure!” Diane Parks, Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Take Action Series Participant, owner www.lightandshadowsphotos.com“I feel incredible—rejazzed and ready to move on—it was very validating to know what I was feeling/experiencing was not unusual and I wasn’t alone. I’m leaving with the tools to move forward and be successful. Even if I get sidetracked again I know how to come back to center.” “Your Next Step” Attendee Deb K., Washington
