The Emotional Eating Solution
A Self-Paced Coaching Program
A PERMANENT SOLUTION TO SUSTAINABLE WEIGHT LOSS.
OVERCOME EMOTIONAL EATING, RECLAIM YOUR LIFE AND NEVER FEEL LIKE A SLAVE TO FOOD AGAIN.
Liberation from food obsession and achieving lasting weight loss don’t come from willpower, deprivation, counting calories or macros. Instead, it comes from doing the internal work to heal from emotional eating. That means developing new skills & strategies to cope with your unique triggers & support your individual lifestyle.
You need to learn HOW to fall in love with eating, so you can enjoy your life, feel confident in your body and actually enjoy food without dieting, deprivation, guilt or shame— finally!
Does this sound like you?
✺
You feel overwhelmed traveling or going out to a celebratory meal with friends & family, fearing you’ll be seduced by food and won't have the willpower to say no and will end up eating everything.
✺
You are tired of food being the only solution you turn to in order to feel better after a difficult situation, exhaustion, or the preferred way to feel freedom and grounding when life feels overwhelming and uncomfortable.
✺
You want to be able to cook and eat your favorite meals, and keep your favorite snacks in the house without finding yourself going to the kitchen at random hours for more.
So, what’s stopping you?
BIG DOUBT #1:
YOU FEEL HELPLESS TO YOUR CRAVINGS
After years of feeling like a slave to foods I craved, here is what I know to be true...
Food is not that powerful.
My clients have overcome emotional eating and compulsive bingeing behaviors without compromising any joy eating.
The idea that you have to sacrifice your preferences or amass some expert-level willpower is just plain wrong. Learning to include your trigger foods into your eating routine is the way forward.
BIG DOUBT #2:
I NEED TO COOK MOST OF MY MEALS IN ORDER TO EAT HEALTHY AND AVOID EMOTIONAL EATING.
Ok, this one is completely untrue.
You do not need to become a chef or spend your time researching recipes and buying groceries. You can overcome emotional eating with a simple eating strategy and customized accountability.
It’s how I continue to solve and shift the habit and coping mechanism of emotional eating for myself and my clients.
BIG DOUBT #3:
YOU EAT MANY OF YOUR MEALS OUT AT RESTAURANTS OR TRAVEL A TON FOR WORK SO YOU ARE WAITING UNTIL “THINGS SETTLE DOWN” TO START.
Let's flip the script here. What if I told you that when life is “unsettled” - that is the exact time to invest and commit to overcoming emotional eating and creating a new eating routine.
Seriously, if you can feel success achieving your health goals while things are crazy, you can be sure it will be downright impossible to shake the confidence in your ability to sustain this new lifestyle amidst any life uncertainty, transition or disappointment.
That ease and trust in yourself you are searching for? It’s right here.
Now, take a moment. Close your eyes.
Imagine what it would feel like to fall in love with eating, overcome food preoccupation and guilt spirals and FINALLY feel confidence and joy in both your body AND your ability to eat all the foods you love.
✺
You would be building a customized accountability structure that supports your unique lifestyle, and is flexible enough to provide you with room to eat whatever you love without fear that you will lose control.
✺
You would feel excited about eating and completely safe to buy, store and cook your favorite foods.
✺
You would lose the unwanted weight you gained with a long term sustainable strategy so it will never happen again.
It’s not.
I know because I’ve done it.
And I’ve taught hundreds of other women to do it. And I can’t wait to show YOU how to do it too.
Sound too good to be true?
“Without a doubt one of the best investments I’ve made in myself.”
“Choosing to invest in the Emotional Eating Solution was, without a doubt, one of the best investments I chose to make in myself. Alana has this uncanny way of understanding and articulating the psychological motivations and behavioral implications of emotional eating that provides valuable insights and really gets to the heart of the matter.”
— JAMIE
But wait, have we officially met?
Hi, I'm Alana Kessler.
I’m a native New Yorker, wife, yogi of 24 years. As a Registered Dietitian since 2006, with a Bachelors and Masters Degree in Clinical Nutrition from NYU, expertly trained in functional and eastern nutrition and lifestyle modalities - I am here to provide you with a sustainable solution to overcoming emotional eating, so you never have to feel like a slave to food again.
Because, to be fully transparent, I have been on the exact same journey.
In fact, I overcame the grips of emotional binge eating after battling with food and my body image since the 90's when I was 17 years old.
If I am being honest, when I was in the throes of my food anxiety, I spent most of my time in social gatherings worrying about how food would make me feel and how it would impact my diet plan and my body. I was never able to be fully present.
After spending years and many thousands of dollars investing in my personal and spiritual wellness, I learned and integrated the tools to develop a great relationship to food and eating that empowered me, and allowed me to participate in my life with a full trusting heart. Using my Sober Eating Approach + Method, my eating experiences now bring me joy, nourishment and a feeling of confidence without fail.
I want to help you do the same.
I'm dedicated not only to helping you understand the reasons why you emotionally eat, but also to helping you create, apply and sustain an eating routine that is created specifically for you.
No more calorie counting, points system or apps that provide general guidance and zero insights for your specific and individual life.
No more watching everyone else “eat whatever they want, even the ‘‘bad foods”, and marvel at how they can just enjoy it, AND maintain their desired body weight.
No more guilt, deprivation or stare downs with your comfort foods.
Just a proven method, customizable tools and all the emotional eating and nutrition knowledge that's in my arsenal. Because you deserve to feel trust and participate fully in every inch of your life.
If you’re with me, now is the time get excited because it's all about to be yours.

The Secret Sauce Behind
My Transformational Coaching?
THE SOBER EATING APPROACH + METHOD
SEAM is my proprietary sustainable long term solution to overcome emotional and binge eating and the unwanted weight gain and emotional strife that comes with this type of relationship to food.
In the SEAM we are attuning to the pleasurable experience of eating while creating a neutrality around food. We don't use calories or points or macro tracking as the measure of whether we can eat a food or not. Instead, we learn to build the intrinsic trust in our own ability to self regulate our appetite. We create an internal accountability system that is based around choice and natural consequences of that choice, rather than a number or external construct we have to follow.
Sober Eating Approach + Method
STRUCTURE
Design an eating routine based on your desires around food, eating style and needs related to your lifestyle - travel, family, work schedule, etc..
EDUCATE
Learn fresh takes on nutrition concepts and eating mindsets (no calorie counting or points system here). Make the connections between motivation for eating and emotions, conditions and beliefs influencing food choices and eating, and create a framework for how to eat without feeling, overwhelm, confusion or deprivation.
ALIGN
Implement the tools and become internally accountable and flexible with eating in any situation without triggering guilt or shame.
MAINTAIN
Prepare yourself to stay consistent, through eating strategies, self care / lifestyle anchors and communication techniques that provide the safety and accountability you need long term.

Time for a little heart-to-heart.
If you’ve been in my world for even a little bit, you know I’m all about doing the work, deep insights and accountability, but I’m going to drop the curtain for a minute and get real with you.
The number one thing that holds back SO many people that desperately want to heal their relationship to food, and create the relationship with their body and eating they yearn for?
It’s fear and unworthiness.
➔Fear that nothing will change with all the effort and investment..
➔Fear that they will miss food and eating will become miserable.
➔Fear that they won’t commit to making this work.
And if right now, you’re reading this wondering if you can *actually* pull this off—if you can actually stop feeling like a slave to food and lose weight. Trust in yourself and feel empowered eating, with the unshakable ability to self regulate your appetite so you can feel freedom eating without guilt, shame or worry. You aren’t alone.
I know because that used to be me.
If you had told me years ago as I was sitting in the middle of empty food wrappers alone in my NYC apartment after the rat race that felt like my life, hating my body and wondering how I was going to “make up for this binge”, that I would be at my happiest weight feeling the best I ever have in my life in my 40’s, traveling the world eating decadent food without guilt with my new husband, wearing clothing I never thought I could fit into day in and day out without any self consciousness - I would have laughed ( or cried ) on the spot.
But here’s the thing: I’m no special unicorn.
So I’m going to take this moment to tell you something I know is true:
You CAN do this.
The life you want—the one where you can have a bad day and not eat your feelings and obsess over food.
The one where you can spontaneously go to a restaurant, feel confident you can eat whatever you want & take home leftovers without worry that you’ll end up eating them in a few hours at midnight.
The one where you can host or show up to a pizza, BBQ or themed food night at home or at a friend’s place and walk away feeling confident in how you ate and connected to everyone there.
The one where you permanently lose that unwanted weight never to get seduced by the next quick fix again.
That life IS possible.
And you’re closer to it than ever before.
.
I mean this from the bottom of my heart:
I believe in you.
And I created The Emotional Eating Solution to help you slash the learning curve, heal the root of your toxic relationship to food, fall in love with eating, and permanently lose weight so that you can turn off those obsessive and critical voices for good and live the life you are meant for.
Now, if you’re still with me, it’s time for a little of that tough love to light a fire under your —
