Join me for my Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Take Action Series and combine the tools and strategies of my self-guided Emotional Eating Toolbox™ program, with my most powerful teleseminar series program yet. 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.
If weight is an issue for you, emotional eating is likely a big part of it.
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.
Designed to help you take control of overeating—once and for all—in a way that works for you and your life.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 program that structures 28 days of change. It literally walks you step by step through 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 ($169 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.
“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 The Take Action Program includes Six 60-minute 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. We’ll craft the strategies and start answering the question, “What DO you do INSTEAD of overeating?” You’ll also learn 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. Learn the difference between “food rules” and “food wisdom” and identify what path works best for you.
Week Four: Self care and making time for yourself: how to fit it all in. How to REALLY carve out the time you need to be effective–both with emotional eating, and with the rest of your life.
Week Five: Achieving your healthy lifestyle: How to set goals and how to avoid the traps smart women set for themselves. We’re going to specifically address the minefields you may have encountered in the past and talk about how to set yourself up for success instead of failure.
Week Six: What Else Do I Need? Crafting a Plan For Enduring Change. How to create action when you feel stuck / Laser Coaching, how to keep up momentum and motivation (because you don’t want to lose weight only to gain it back again!).
“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• The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ 28 Day Daily Action Plan Program ($169 value): comes with 150+ page spiral-bound Daily Action Plan with weekly master schedules, day by day instructions, bonus exercises and tools; 2-CD companion set—increase your motivation and learning by listening at home, on the road, at the gym.

Are you ready to get the tools you need to take charge of emotional eating?

“I just want to say, that you´re amazing! All the women that I work with and my girlfriends seriously need to know about your work, because it really stands out from the fitness world and most women magazines way of dealing with the food/weight issue. I myself work within the fitness industry and in this world, the things you put words to just seems to be such a taboo and embarrassing subject that nobody brings it up (unless the talk is on “eating disorders.” And who wants to be associated with that?!). Your way of making emotional eating “normal” and down to earth is so relieving to me – both on a personal but certainly also on a professional level! Thank you!” Noël Winkelmann, Denmark powerhousepilates.dk Email Us to upgrade to the teleseminars only for $189 or to upgrade to the teleseminars + Momentum Coaching for $630 (this offer is only available to those who have previously purchased the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Program).
