Are you tired of dieting...and regaining...and dieting?

Do you eat when you are stressed, bored, nervous or overwhelmed?

Do you feel hungry all the time or out of control with your overeating?

There is so much more to life.  And there is absolutely a way out of the diet madness.  I'm thrilled to be able to announce that the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ 28-Day Self-guided Daily Action Plan is finally available!

I'm Dr. Melissa McCreery.  As a Psychologist and now as the founder of Enduring Change Coaching, I have specialized in helping people get back in control of their relationship with food and with their weight since 1995. 

I know about the misery of being stuck in a cycle of weight gain, diet, weight loss, weight re-gain, "failure," shame, guilt and self blame. 

I know about the sense of hopelessness that develops, the frustration, the feelings of powerlessness.  The self-judgment and feelings of "failure."  AND, how all those feelings can lead to overeating all over again.

For years I have been teaching my clients about the way out.  The way to get back in control and move beyond dieting.  I teach my clients the tools the weight loss industry doesn't address--the tools that are necessary for weight loss that lasts.

By creating the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ , I've found a way to share with you the tools and the techniques I use with my private coaching clients.  All within a carefully structured, 28-day program that is completely individualized.

What do I mean by individualized?

  • 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 four 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 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.

These are the same tools and methods that I use with my private clients, AND the Toolbox program is so powerful, that I now ask my private clients to use it too.  Why?  Because even working individually with someone, I can't be there with them every day, every time that food and hunger come up.  Even working as intensely with people as I sometimes do, I'm not there daily to provide the individual daily and sometimes hourly focus and detail that the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ program does.

That focus, and the consistent practice you'll get over the 28 days of the program, is an important component of what will help you build powerful personal tools that create lasting change.

The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ program is designed to show you the tools that are necessary to:

  • feel in control with your hunger and with overeating.

  • end the struggles with weight and diet and maintain weight loss.

  • NOT feel deprived or hungry.

  • spend a lot less time thinking about and worrying about food and eating.

There's an added bonus that surprises some people who have used the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ program. 

The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ program shows you how to stop the critical self-judgment and self-blame that takes up such a large space in many emotional eater's heads.  The tools in the program will help you learn how to take that negative energy and self-criticism (that causes you so much pain and guilt) and re-channel it in ways that allow you to really satisfy your hungers and stop feeling deprived or hungry so much of the time.

  

 

“I have improved in not being so self-critical and am in the process of learning more of what I really want instead of food.  It has really been very interesting in learning that lots of time, I am not really hungry but used food thinking I was . . . I really liked your approach to teaching us this program.  You made it easy to not feel so uncomfortable . . . I like the materials, it made it very helpful to go back to for reference.”

Becky, Nurse Glendale, Arizona

 

“The program—especially the materials—are really good, and Melissa, your coaching style and gentle acceptance and encouragement is wonderful.”

Bethany, Oak Harbor Washington

 

“This program helped me recognize that a lot of times that I reached for food I really wasn’t hungry--I was bored or angry or sad and to recognize and deal with the “feelings” instead of reaching for food.  Because the program helped me to start to learn what true hunger was, I am now able to ask myself “are you truly physically hungry for food or are you bored, tired, stressed, etc.”  I can brainstorm ways to handle the boredom, stress etc.”

“I loved your coaching style.  You come across as very sincere, knowledgeable and interested.  I also think you have a knack for asking just the right question at the right time and prodding us to brainstorm different ways to handle a given situation.  The workbook and materials were impressive. . . I thought the group definitely added a bonus to the program.”

Melissa, Computer Programmer, Kansas


"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 have not yielded the results... She's on to something big! Hats off to her!"

Juliet, Naperville, Illinois

 

The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Course is not just a set of directions that tells everyone to do the same thing.  The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Course is interactive.  The materials in the program, on the CDs and in your Daily Action Plan are designed to help you create your own individualized program for addressing emotional over-eating--an individualized plan that meets your needs, addresses your concerns, and works with your life.

Although the Emotional Eating Toolbox™  Daily Action Plan includes lots of information, it is not simply a book.  If you're like me, you've bought and read lots of books that had great ideas and great concepts and that felt very motivating to read.  The problem comes when you put the book down and try to apply the book and the ideas to your own life.  It's not always clear how to do that, and, even if it is, without a clear structure, accountability, and a way to incorporate the philosophy of the book into your already-complicated life, it's quite likely that the book gets forgotten soon after you read it--that's IF you finish it.

I also decided against offering simply a workshop.  Workshops are great tools for learning, but what I want to provide you is a means of creating PERMANENT changes in your relationship with food.  No matter what anyone else has told you, that takes time and it takes practice.  Most people leave a workshop fired up, but over the next week or so, momentum and motivation fades and eventually, they find themselves returning to the same old habits and the same old problems.

The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ is a Daily Action Plan.  It will literally walk you through, step by step, the specific tasks, exercises, questions and challenges you need to undertake to shift away from a mentality of yo-yo dieting, food obsession, binge eating, or feeling out of control with food.

The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ teaches you how to work in small, do-able steps in a consistent way that will help you make new habits routine and changes ENDURING.

The Emotional Eating Toolbox™ Course includes:

  • Your Personal 28-Day Daily Action Plan Workbook, a 150 page spiral-bound workbook packed with:

    • Powerful Tools to help you identify your unique emotional eating patterns and needs.

    • Individualized Strategies for learning how to feed yourself in ways that won't leave you feeling deprived.

    • Weekly Master Schedule Templates to help you organize your time as you master the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ tools.

    • A daily step-by-step plan for working through the course.

  • Audio companion CD series.  Two CDs packed with material that you can use to augment the Daily Action Plan.  Use these whenever you need to bolster your learning, increase motivation and stay on track.

  • Opportunities to enroll in Companion Toolbox Coaching Groups or Individual Emotional Eating Toolbox Coaching. Group and/or individual coaching is a great way to augment the toolbox.  When you purchase the toolbox, you will also have an opportunity to enroll in an emotional eating coaching program (additional fee applies).

  • Ongoing articles and tips: Approximately every four weeks, you will receive my newsletter via email with articles, tips and solutions for moving forward with your best version of your life.  You will also be first in line for special offers and new programs and resources when they become available.

  • Bonus offer:  For a limited time I'll provide you with your own personalized 30 minute emotional eating coaching session (by telephone).  This is a $90 value--that's the price that I charge everyone else.  You will have the opportunity to be coached by me one-on-one.  We'll tackle your individual challenges, sticky spots, and emotional eating concerns--you choose the agenda for this session and I'll help you design your next do-able action step. Honestly, I don't know how long I'll be able to make this available, but if you are reading this it's still available.

As you get to know me, you'll find that I am someone who takes fairness, authenticity and integrity very seriously.  I am putting my own professional reputation on the line with the Emotional Eating Toolbox™.  As a result, I give you my guarantee that what you see is what you get.  No false promises or claims, no fluffy or worthless "freebies" thrown in to artificially inflate the price.   What I am including in the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ are the components that I have found, in over ten years of helping clients overcome these issues, to be the most valuable and essential tools for taking control of emotional overeating.

Let me be clear: the Emotional Eating Toolbox™ does not do the work for you.  Successfully learning to use and incorporate the tools in your own life will require some effort.  Please ask yourself before ordering:

"Am I willing to put in structured effort over the next four weeks to make enduring changes in my relationship with food?"

If your answer is yes, the toolbox will be a great guide.  I've worked hard, gotten great feedback and road-tested this program until I've made it as structured and as straight-forward as I could.  If you're ready to take the next step, order now.
