“Revolution Ahead:
Illuminating the Path to
Freedom from
BED,
Emotional Overeating & Weight Bias”
Free yourself from out-of-control emotional eating and weight obsession and everything else becomes possible!
Check any box that sounds familiar:
- I'm an emotional eater. I feel out-of-control with food.
- I think if I could just lose weight, I could be happy.
- When I feel a binge coming on, suggesting I take a walk around the block is just not going to cut it.
- I spend more time hating my body than living my life. I know dieting is not the answer. But what do I do instead?
A Weigh Out, and its founding organization Acoria Eating Disorder Treatment, have been working with emotional, compulsive, and binge eating issues since 1993. Founder Ellen Shuman is the Vice President of the Binge Eating Disorder Association and Co-Chair of the Academy for Eating Disorders Special Interest Group on “Health at Every Size“.
A Weigh Out is not a diet or weight loss website. We strongly believe that healthy people come in all shapes and sizes. Our emphasis is on healthy, balanced living; emotional, physical, nutritional, and spiritual health, not on how much you happen to weigh on any given day! There’s so much more to life!
Here’s how can we be of help to those who struggle with emotional, compulsive, or binge eating, or feel they have a food addiction. We provide Telephone Coaching to people worldwide. On this website you’ll find a supportive Membership Community called the A Weigh Out Circle, with private support groups, forums, 52 Weekly Empowerment Tools, a Member’s Emotional and Binge Eating Blog called, “Weigh This Instead!”, an audio and video library, and much, much more. To learn more about our philosphy, listen to “Ellen’s Welcome”, under her picture . To learn more about Membership offerings and a FREE 21-Day Trial, click on any “Join the Circle” Icon on this website.
We also invite you to join us for a FREE one hour telephone seminar about emotional eating . It’s open to anyone who is struggling and wants to explore ways to stop mindless emotional eating…and begin mindful living (new seminar dates are posted regularly). If you live in the Greater Cincinnati area, we also offer individual Therapy, in person. (Therapy is the appropriate level of care for some people vs. Coaching)
We welcome you to join us for a new adventure, packed full of new and wonderful possibilities…
Inside our Membership Circle, find hope, connection, and freedom from binge and compulsive overeating.Explore ![]()
