- Are you eating yourself into oblivion?
- Can’t stop thinking about food?
- Hate yourself because you just can't stick to a diet?
You're not alone.
This membership club is perfect for you if you're a: busy working woman - unable to curb your cravings, dealing with out of control hunger, feeling frustrated with playing small and seeking to overcome limiting beliefs that ultimately not only destroy your happiness and peace of mind but also affect your bottom line. always on the go mom - unable to stop thinking about food all day long, feeling constantly stressed out and at the boiling point, always focusing on others, at the risk of losing connection with who you are.
Despite what you've been led to believe the problem is not the size of your thighs or any other part of you that you may now despise. And another diet isn't going to give you what you're really after. What you really need is not a body makeover, it's a new way of looking at and relating to food.
But you feel squished between a rock and a hard place. Because you don’t know of any other way to deal with food besides going on a diet, keeping foods you love out of sight, or playing silly little mind games with yourself, trying to make the food less desirable, and let’s not even talk about how frustrated, feeling totally deprived and unsupported you really feel!
You need help and I’m here for you. My name is Andrea Amador. I'm a Master Practitioner of Neuro Linguistic Programming, a Professionally trained Empowerment Coach and Body Image/Self Esteem expert. Here's a bit of my story:
My goofs are your gain!
As a business woman, author, speaker, coach, wife, mom and an incredibly passionate and very active school and community volunteer, I want you to know that I understand what it's like being under so much pressure, trying to get it all perfect, wanting desperately to do it all and be the gal with the reputation of being able to take care of everyone and everything. All the burden of responsibility is on you. I know how difficult it is to juggle a personal and professional life because at 47 years old, I've done it for over 23 years, most of my life.
In 1985, as a loyal to the bone daughter, I wanted desperately to help my beloved father out of a jam. To fulfill my sense of family obligation, I decided to leave college abruptly, put my life on hold and stepped in to help my grandmother run the family business, a $10.5M real estate empire.
From that point my once close and loving relationship with my dad began to dissolve the moment he said, "Andrea, Don't think of me as your father. Think of me as your boss."
I didn’t take him seriously because he was always saying stuff to intimidate me and everyone else. That was just his way. He was always a tough talker. I chalked it up to just being his usual gruff and grouchy manner. No big deal I assured myself. I was certain that he was joking. Sadly I found out he wasn’t kidding. He was as serious as a heart attack. It’s just like he turned himself off and forgot all about me. My role as his daughter had come to an end and now I was just an employee. Something happened to him and I don’t quite know what it was. Maybe he got greedy. Maybe he got jealous. Maybe he went senile. Maybe a leopard can really change their spots. I don’t know what happened to him or to our relationship but it did.
For a long time, I blamed our rift on his horrible circumstances. Nana begged me to forgive him for being so mean and nasty all the time and to remember the Dad he used to be. Every once in a while, I could see that there were glimmers of hope in something that he would do or say proving that he was really still himself, but for the most part I didn’t want to admit the fact that I was noticing him changing. But I continued to stick it out.
For 18 1/2 years, I juggled being a wife, mother, adult caregiver, community volunteer and entrepreneur while I raised both of my children running a multi million dollar business from my Nana's apartment. Together with my Nana's help, we managed and ran 3 buildings with 110 tenants and a full scale coin operated laundromat.
After years of devoted service, self sacrifice, and emotional abuse I finally grew a backbone and realized that I was being treated like a doormat by the one man who I had always loved and trusted the most, my father. Unwilling to be taken advantage of by him a moment longer, I gave him an ultimatum; sell the buildings and give me 49% of the proceeds or I walk. He reluctantly agreed, making a verbal promise. For the next couple of years it seemed like he was back to being my old dad again. For a time, as a show of support, he offered his help to video tape my presentations and seminars. I was on top of the world thinking that everything was okay again. I swore he was in my corner. But when all was said and done, in August of 2004, after I negotiated the sale of the property and made the deal, he cut me and my family out of his life, ran off with the money, leaving us with a mountain of debt, a bellyful of hateful hurt and a ton of regret. The tension it created between my husband and I, almost destroyed our marriage. My father's betrayal brought up all my old trust issues with men putting a real damper on my relationship with my husband. My home became divided by the bitter feelings of anger and hatred toward my father. The tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. My husband and son made no bones about hiding their resentment and disappointment in me, constantly reminding me that I shouldn't have trusted my dad. The energy in our home went from loving harmony to living in warfare. All the emotional loss and shame I endured on a personal note was further compounded by the pain and anguish my foolishness had caused my family.
As a gal who has struggled with emotional eating and obsessed with hating my body for nearly 35 years, I couldn't stop eating and gained 35 pounds. My voracious appetite was out of control, until one day I made a small change that stopped the weight gain dead in its tracks.
I'm still dealing with the fall out from my losses, but in general I'm not turning to food. Let me share my secrets with you. Let me show you how to get thinner, make peace with food and friends with your body under the worst possible circumstances. It's easy to have control over food, when life is great and everything's going your way, but what happens when it feels like the sky is falling? I'm here to show you what to do during the toughest times so that you'll never have to wonder if you can be trusted around food ever again.
What's Your Inner Critic Saying?
For years as an adult, I idolized my father and made excuses for the nasty and hurtful ways he treated me. Throughout my childhood he was my best friend and mentor. Other than the occasional sarcastic remark or hurtful criticism, usually centered around the size of my thighs, I knew without a doubt that I was the apple of his eye. He was the single most influential person in my life and for that I'll always be grateful. I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing if he wouldn't have led me down the path to personal growth when I was just 11 years old. But the father I once knew and the man he is today are two very different people, so I've had to let him go in order to continue to hold onto my loving memories of the dad I once loved. My journey and my discoveries of learning how to go on and overcome feeling so hurt and taking everything so personally is my wisdom to share with you. You may have a fabulous relationship with your father, but something else in your life is causing your response to food to go out of whack, keeping you always reaching for something else to eat when you know deep down in your heart you're just not really hungry. I'm here to help.
As a woman who has endured a history of being sexually abused by so many nameless, faceless men and a near lifetime of being verbally abused by my dad, I learned that my image of myself was so small that I allowed other people to walk all over me all the time. For years I was a woman in power who allowed herself to feel powerless. My low opinion of myself manifested in a hundred different ways from the bedroom to the boardroom, but nowhere in my life was it so obvious as the way that I abused myself with food. Now as a gal who's been tossed under the bus enough times, I've learned how important it is to build a strong self image. Most of us are not born with it, we have to create it. I've done that and I'll show you how to do the same. I come by my expertise as a body image/self esteem expert the hard way. I've learned how to recognize my strengths in order to rebuild and reinvent myself, breaking free from my old fat and ugly self image. I'm here with arms outstretched ready, willing and able to show you how to do the same.
If you're not sure if what I'm offering is for you, take a look at the following and see if you can relate to any of these circumstances:
- Have you ever eaten out of control because you felt helpless to change your circumstances?
- Did you ever run from a confrontation, fearful of saying what was really on your mind?
- After a tough day at work, are you ready to reward yourself with food?
- Does your bathroom scale have the power to hold your self esteem hostage?
- Would you rather die than publicly bear your thighs?
- Are you mortified at the prospect of eating in public?
- Do you have food stashes hidden throughout the house, tucked out of sight, in your clothes or at work?
- When you can't think because it feels like your head is about to explode, do you reach for food?
- Does your cure for the blues or a betrayal revolve around numbing your pain with comfort foods?
- At night, would you rather cuddle up to a bucket of ice cream instead of snuggle with your sweetie?
I can relate to all these things and more because perhaps like you, for years I gave food more power than it deserves. Because I was always dieting, I always wanted what I felt/feared I couldn't have. As a dieter, I swore that I had no control around food, now I know I do.
But you know what I learned? Diets Don't Work
Diets add insult to injury by making a hard task seem so much harder. With all the rules and deprivation that come with trying to play the game of avoidance, it’s like trying to roll a big ball up a mountain. The weight of the burden keeps you pinned down, stuck in the muck, eventually you realize that you’re miserable and unwilling to continue a moment longer.
Until the day when I decided that I was no longer willing to live under the restriction of dieting anymore.
That’s when I finally decided to STOP DIETING! Instead, I decided to get slimmer slowly and naturally while eating the foods I loved by a process of Intuitive Eating. Intuitive Eating is a permission based approach to eating all foods in compliance with your body’s natural hunger.
Like most people, as a dieter for most of my life, I had no idea what true physical hunger felt like. I was always told to avoid getting too hungry.
As a coach, I had learned a ton of wonderful tools that really worked to temporarily eliminate cravings quickly and easily. I had enormous success with my clients, but I decided that I absolutely had to know that I could trust myself around food.
To prove that to myself, I set aside everything that I knew that would be a crutch. I needed to know that this worked so I resolved to test it out. I was even willing to gamble the weight loss that I had successfully maintained for nearly 6 years.
At first the idea of eating anything I wanted terrified me. I was consumed by the fear that I would gain weight but I knew that I could never go back to dieting.
When I began, the good news was that I got very discriminating immediately. I was amazed that I was no longer willing to eat all the junk that I used to consume. That was a stunning realization for me. I knew that something big was happening but my hunger still seemed to consume me. It seemed that no amount of food could satisfy my voracious appetite. At one point, I remember that I was eating every hour on the hour. I was gaining weight like crazy, unable to stop eating, I used food more than ever to console me. Now I know what was missing and why I was eating out of control and I'm here to share it with you so that you don't make the same mistakes I did.
In the years since I made that decision to stop dieting and take back control, I’ve developed a juicy yet easy-to-grasp and easy-to-follow way to help others do the same – all within a safe and nurturing environment we can call a club.

Say Goodbye to Dieting!
Perhaps you’ve been dieting for decades and can’t imagine any other way to live. You can’t even contemplate having a different relationship with food other than avoiding it or going full tilt-hog wild crazy just giving in to your every craving. That was me! You’ve tried dieting during the week and only cheating on weekends, but who are we kidding. There are 104 days in the year that are weekends. You’re so tired of playing all the games that come with dieting. I don’t have to tell you, you probably recognize them:
- Add it all up: Food, fat and grams, oh my!

- It’s just a bite: It doesn’t really count
- Scale, scale on the floor, who’s the fattest of them all?
- Destination Deprivation: Ticket for one to Peter Rabbit’s buffet
- It’s 12:00, It must be lunch time!
- Beat the Clock: The Special Occasion Weight Loss Blues
- Eating in circles: Playing the substitute game and getting bitten by your cravings
- If only I were thinner, then life would be perfect
- Fill ‘er up: Eating before eating to tame your raging Feast Beast's hunger
- Hiding the goodies: Avoiding starches or other carbs
- “Just For Today” splurges: Giving yourself pseudopermission to eat
- Closet Eating Contraband: Cottage cheese by day, cupcakes by night
- Last Supper Eating: Tonight we eat, tomorrow we diet
And who can ever forget pistol packin' Mondays, the day when all diets start again and...

You get on the scale and swear to yourself it won't matter, but it really does. Doesn't it?
I understand the struggle. I'm still on the road to recovery myself but I'll share everything I've learned to make your path smoother. Let me help you say goodbye to dieting forever and love your body now!
Hasn't weight and food obsession distracted you from living long enough? For years you’ve probably tried so hard to be good on your diet, weighing and measuring every bite that goes in your mouth. You’ve disciplined yourself to be able to tally up calories, points and fat grams in any food. You probably have more knowledge about nutritional content than any of the so called experts out there.
How many times have you denied your hunger and deprived yourself when you wanted to eat and tried to fight those urges by avoiding ‘fattening foods. You’ve worked so hard to become a careful eater, watching every morsel, pushing yourself to eat healthy, trying your very best to keep those goodies that you love at arms’ distance, desperately trying to fight against nature by ignoring your cravings until the yearning and desperation gets so bad that you feel like your guts are going to bust from hunger and your brain's about to explode.
Who knows what will trigger the switch! It could be an upsetting phone call, a confrontation with a dead beat client or dinner with your mother-in law that drives you over the edge, a bill for past due taxes, putting all your willpower to the test. Your body pushes you to eat that one cookie or sliver of something and then bingo it’s just like the whole house of cards comes tumbling down. You swear to yourself, “This will never happen again.”
In an effort to get control and to prevent falling off the wagon, you reach for a food that is low in calories and temporarily filling. You try to quell your craving with some diet soda or a drink of water. That doesn’t work so you move on to the next step looking for food that’s ‘safe’ to eat.
How many times have you eaten rice cakes when you really wanted crispy, greasy double folded Wise Ridgies potato chips
or
how about that leftover birthday cake in the refrigerator?
You know you want it, but you talk yourself out of eating it because it’s so fattening. Instead you grab a handful of carrot sticks, eat all the cold left over string beans, a wrinkled apple, a dry orange, 3 crackers spread with sugar free jelly, 3 cold spare ribs from last week's take out, 2 cans of soda, 2 glasses of milk and 4 or 5 servings of a packaged sugar free dessert that tastes like sweetened cardboard and eventually you end up full circle eating that slice of birthday cake, cursing your lack of will power, feeling shameful and piggish and positively hating yourself.
Before you take that final bite of cake or lick that last remaining trace of icing from your lips, you swear you’ll never do that again and so the cycle continues.
Diet – Deprivation – Desire – Binge – Guilt – Diet – Deprivation – Desire – Binge -
But it's too late again--You’ve just consumed several thousand calories in an attempt to avoid a few hundred. Now you’re feeling desperate, actually wishing and hoping and looking forward to the next day or diet that you hope and pray will bring you back in control again. You think to yourself, If only I could find the right diet, then I’ll lose this weight and then I’ll be okay.
You feel like a hamster running on a wheel
Because you just can’t stop thinking about food. Perhaps you’ve even taken a huge risk and decided a long time ago to end the craziness and stop dieting on your own, but no matter what you do, you just can’t stop gaining weight.
And all you want to do is eat, eat, eat
Want me to show you a better way?

Are you ready to learn a safe and gentle, easy way that will help you take control of your eating?
So you can...
- Get off the diet-binge roller coaster for good
- Eat the foods you love
- Watch food commercials without feeling tempted to raid the fridge
- Stop feeling deprived
- Get control of your cravings
- Put the brakes on feeling guilty around food
- spice up all your relationships
- feel sexier and love the skin you're in
- Make peace with all foods
- End the pain of the shame that comes from overeating
- Stop closet eating
Wouldn’t you love to:
Get thinner naturally and reshape your body as you eat the foods you love!
Yessirree! That means you really can have Tuesday night’s spaghetti and garlic bread! Yummo! or a Chocolate Brownie Turtle Sundae for breakfast...
or any other thing your heart desires!
Eat the foods you love and feel safe around them!

You’ll learn how to get in touch with your body and tap right into your intuition.
Well, here’s the secret!
Diets don’t work for most people because they are focused on keeping you feeling deprived, playing stupid mental games that keep you stuck and frustrated, fat and fearful of food. With a diet as your model of eating structure, you'll end up consuming more than you ever would if you just ate the foods you really wanted! As in the example with the cake craving above, that constant gnawing feeling of deprivation and wanting what you think you can’t have will eventually lead you to give into temptation and will cause you to fall headfirst into your next binge, eating the entire cake and then looking around for more.
Most diets are just binges waiting to happen
That’s why you must tear off the blanket of restriction on all foods so that temptation falls away.
And that’s what makes this coaching program work:
Permission
No food is ever off limits again. It’s time to wipe the slate clean and start thinking about food and yourself in a new light, in a uniquely empowering way.
You get to ask yourself, “What Do I Really Want?” And yes, you can dine on fettuccine Alfredo instead of settling for skinless, tasteless, grilled chicken.
No more food that tastes like cardboard, no more restrictions and no more diets!
Eat like a naturally thin person. Reshape your body gently and slowly once and for all.
Imagine this: You order a cheeseburger deluxe and a plate of fries. You eat just half of it – that’s all – and you’re satisfied! To top that off, you are amazed when you notice your favorite ice cream is growing freezer fuzz and your favorite foods are going stale in the cupboard!
That’s right!
I’m encouraging you to
Go ahead and stock up your refrigerator, freezer, cabinets and pantries with goodies because I want you to get ready for the biggest power trip of your life.
Soon you’ll take back your command over all the old no-no foods you used to fear so much,
Finally like my clients, Shari and Jomay, you'll learn that you – not those foods – are in the driver’s seat.
"I never thought I'd throw away a chocolate cookie but I did! After I did my first ME exercise (ME = Mindful Eating) today with one of the cookies I brought home from the store. I had never seen it before, it was made by Reeces and it was sort of like an Oreo with a peanut butter filling but it also had a very thin coating of milk chocolate on the inside of the chocolate cookie part. I have always loved peanut butter and chocolate together and this looked like somethng that would be so forbidden that I HAD to get it.
I took out 3 oreo size cookies and put them on my plate with my napkin and pen and paper. What I realized through the process was that it wasn't all that good. I had to keep tasting it in all different ways to believe it b/c I kept expecting it to be awesome. The best it got was "Ok, not bad" or "that bite tasted good." (It was the parts with the most peanut butter that I liked) I ate 2 cookies and the inside of the third. I didn't like the outer chocolate cookie part much, it was too dry, too crunchy too sugary, and not very tasty. That was interesting to find out. And I found out that when I ate the peanut butter middle, while it tasted good to me, I think I like my natural peanut butter from the jar better b/c it has more peanut flavor and is not so sugary.
Then, after I ate it, I felt really sick. My body did not like that cookie. I think it was way too sugary for my system. Yuck! One thing that I have learned so far...with the exception of potato chips, every food that I have done a ME exercise on has ended with me not craving that food anymore. Even the ones that I loved like the brownie or the homemade chocolate chip cookies, I have not had ANY desire to have more of them since the exercise. It's so interesting!
I was also really proud of myself today b/c after class I was hungry and wanted lunch. I thought to myself, "What exactly do I want?" I wanted tacos from Qdoba. I looked in my fridge to see if I could come up with anything that I had at home that I'd like, and I kept coming back to, "I want tacos from Qdoba." LOL So I went to Qdoba and got my perfect tacos. After that I was completely satisfied and felt no need to eat again until my ME exercise 5 hours later. Amazing. The next morning I saw them and felt kinda ill looking at them, so I threw them in the trash! LOL I might have done that in the past so that I wouldn't consume the calories, but this time I did it b/c I truly did not want them. - Shari, US business owner
"Last night I went to a friends who did a buffet and I didn't eat much at all. In the past I would have crammed the food in until I was uncomfortable but I picked a few bits, stopped feeling hungry so stopped eating. A couple of hours later, I decided I was peckish again so had a bit more. I think knowing that I can have what I want, when I want is finally sinking in fully. Today I woke up really hungry because I didn't eat that much last night so had some crumpets with butter. I am peckish again now and tried a few cashews but decided they are not what I want so will not bother until I am hungry enough and something delicious springs to mind. How nice to eat a few nuts and decide they are not what I want - they were always my downfall before.
I could have eaten some more later but looked at it and decided that I really didn't want any more. Now I am home feeling satisfied - neither hungry nor overfull and it's nice to be off to bed without an uncomfortable stomach after a meal at someone's house. My friend asked if I wanted to take some and I decided that I wasn't interested in having any more. In the past, I would have taken a portion and ate it at home away from the judging eyes of others - even if I wasn't hungry so this is such a big thing for me.
I had also got into the habit of coming home from a night out and making some toast - again, not really because I was hungry! I haven't wanted to do that for the past week or two. You are right Andrea - I never thought I would see the day when I could take or leave things like I am doing now and that is just a couple of weeks in to the program. IE can be difficult to implement - I have been trying for well over six months and I think is it the techniques that I am learning now and the support of others going through the same experiences that have been making the difference.
I have been using the TAT process - once or twice daily and loving it. I find it very calming, it has got rid of 2 headaches in the past week and although whilst doing it, I don't notice a huge difference, I feel like there has been a huge shift in my thinking over the past week - as you can see by some of the great things I have written.
I still have times when I eat a little too much but I am noticing them now and I am considering how my body feels. I have not had the urge to binge eat at all and for anyone who has struggled with this, they will know it is a huge breakthrough and I am just so pleased that the diet mentality is slowly melting away.
Dieting has dominated my life for so many years and if feels so great to be able to look at food with a whole new perspective!" - Jomay, UK
Yes. It's really true. You can feel safe around food.

And I can help you. I want to help you.
Right now you’re feeling exhausted, overworked, unsupported and truly overwhelmed. Food has become your drug of choice. Face it.
Food has the upper hand.
Isn’t your portion determined by how many cookies are left in the box? Or how much ice cream is in the container? Or how much dinner is left on your plate? Who’s really in control? You or the food?
Do your cravings lead you around by the nose?
Sure, maybe your emotional eating has lulled you into thinking that you’re relaxing and doing something good for yourself. So, you have some more,and a bit more and then before you know it! Bam! The guilt hits you between the eyes.
You vow to go on another diet because you think you have no will power, self-control or any other options.
That’s how Susan felt before she attended one of my Craving Zapping calls, after which she said,
"I still can’t believe it! I wanted that cookie so badly that I had it in my mouth when I came to the call! After just a few minutes...with Andrea, it tasted different, I didn’t want it anymore and I tossed it in the garbage. I love the control that this gives me."
Susan from Pennsylvania
Nutrition Counselor
Maybe, like Jewel, you’d like to give your kids a legacy of control over food that you never had as a kid!
"Andrea, this is amazing! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH! You are doing a wonderful job! My changes have also rubbed off on the kids.
They actually said, “Mom, popcorn with pour over butter is gross.” We had just bought movie popcorn with extra butter. And it was really gross. The kids told me to never buy it again. Thanks a million!"
Jewel, New York
Would you like to be able to reclaim your power over food and take back your right to make choices about what you want to eat, instead of what you feel you should eat? Can you even imagine not wanting the food you used to crave because you're becoming a picky eater? Believe me. You’ll get so incredibly picky you won't recognize yourself. You just absolutely won’t eat foods that you don’t love. Because I challenge you to consider that you haven’t really tasted your food. Much of what you are eating is mediocre at best. Of course I’m not talking about Nana’s apple pie or your famous lasagna or your best friends’ triple Chocolate Layer Cake. Those are the yummies.
I’m talking about the light sliced bread that tastes like air, the mass produced and artificial flavored sugar free cookies that taste more like chalk, the month old crackers that you ate when you were trying to eat your way around a craving, and let’s not forget the frozen desserts with that nasty, chemical-like after taste. Like many of my clients, you’ve probably convinced yourself that you actually love the taste of these foods.
Imagine how many calories you spend on eating these sugar free, fat free substitutes that really aren’t great. Here are a few examples of several other women in my group coaching programs who started rediscovering the tastes of foods, learned what it was like to become picky, taking back control and recognizing that they deserved only the best. Now they think of themselves differently, with more self compassion, love and respect. As a result, they don’t waste the opportunity to satisfy themselves by eating junk and fillers. They’ve learned to appreciate food in a new way and now they only eat the foods they really love, only the very best is good enough for them.
"I am more discriminating about what I eat, not from a dieting perspective, but from a ‘conscious’ knowing perspective for, I tune inward and listen to what my body is really wanting/needing. Andrea taught me to ask myself, "What do I really want? Is it food, a hug, a walk, a nap?" I have discovered there are a few foods that I thought I really liked in the past (potato chips), that are now seldom appealing to me, much too salty. Thank you, Andrea."
Kari, Therapist
"My eating has changed! Without really planning to do it, I am listening to my inner signals of satisfaction and honoring them. I ask myself why I am eating. I am curious to know what those hunger signals actually feel like. In a way I have made a bit of peace with food and enjoy knowing I am really looking after myself when I eat when I am hungry.
I feel more relaxed eating around other people. I feel less need to keep up "appearances of nutritional correctness" and more permission to be myself and eat what I enjoy. Imagine eating a chili cheese hotdog and feeling totally satisfied!!!"

"I can’t believe it. When I started with Andrea, the foods that I thought that I loved, I don’t. I really don’t. In fact, now they really suck! When I actually focused on their taste, and smell and what I was eating it was amazing. Like certain types of pizza, I thought I like stuff on it and I don’t. It’s just amazing that foods that I would have eaten before and not thought anything about, I don’t like them anymore. I’m getting to the point where I won’t eat anything I don’t want.
Now I know that if I make a sandwich, I sometimes don’t like the texture of the bread or the tomato is too soggy or the miracle whip is too sweet and I just won’t eat it if I don’t love it."
Linda, Artist, Connecticut

"Andrea I'm so impressed by your approach and the range of tools and knowledge encapsulated in the program. One of my New Year's resolutions is to lose the weight I've continued to put back on since losing 21 lbs last year.
I was particularly impressed by the one-to-one session we had over the phone. I've been aware of a real shift in the way I've been dealing with memories of the difficult time around the sudden passing of my husband, Dave's death. Several layers of the onion seem to have been peeled off and I'm now feeling things that I've buried for too long.This has allowed me to deal with them as they've emerged and I've been tapping consistently over the past month. Thank you so much."

"Working with Andrea gave me many great tools to use to break the dieting cycle. If one tool doesn't work for you, she'll pull another one out of her never-ending arsenal. Andrea is a truly caring person who really wants you to succeed in her programs. You'll really feel like you have a cheerleader on your side rooting for you all the way".

“Andrea is one of the most remarkable people I know.
I was delighted when Andrea, the Juicy Woman, agreed to present her program to the WOW, World of Women community in 2006. It was evident to all who had the pleasure of working with her just how passionate she is about helping women put an end to the weight/food issues merry go round, and help women reclaim back their lives.
She has become the light at the end of the tunnel for women of all ages who have all but given up hope of finding a solution to their dieting challenges. Andrea brings to her clients a powerful combination of expertise, fun and compassion. She knows first hand how it feels to fight the battle of the bulge, which gives her a very unique perspective as to what it really feels like to feel powerless over food.
Having worked with Andrea, I know from personal experience the ability she has to transform negative thought patterns into a powerful catalyst for lasting change, in a fun creative way. If you are looking for 'light bulb' moments and are ready to try a new approach for weight control, one that really works, then Andrea Amador is definitely the coach for the job.”

"Andrea came into my life in a seemingly accidental manner but I now know it was no accident. I selected her as my team leader from a large group of highly qualified professionals and lifestyle coaching giants based soley on her website. She spoke to my heart through her authentic enthusiastic posts and offerings. She seemed to know that we, women spend 90 percent of our mental energy on what to eat, what not to eat, thinking and obsessing about food every minute of the day, even though we have about one percent of mental energy to spare!
Well, I should've fastened my seatbelt right then and there because that was only the start-where her key hit the ignition. Just 3 short months later I am cruising along in an express lane I never ever imagined! Thanks to her inspiring support I now have a successful completed product online ..me!
The gal who told Andrea in the first phone call that I was not expert enough in anything to be credible! She was like the queen bee in our online hive of (disbelieving) worker bees who she daily coached to do what we thought we could not do. She worked her motivational magic on 24 other teammates-unbelievable. I really don't know how she churns up so much energy....actually I think I do know. I suspect that Andrea has discovered the secret of how to take that 90 percent of feminine food freak out energy that most of us waste and she has learned to recycle it into real action!! Imagine what we all could become if we were to do the same! And that is what Andrea does. Her gift is to help us reprogram the master switch so that we too can be as fierce and fabulous as her!"

Does My Marriage Make Me Look Fat?

It’s so hard, wanting to do it all. I understand what it’s like because I’m a business woman, a wife and a mom, too. And I know how hard it is to juggle a personal and professional life.
Diets add insult to injury by making a hard task seem so much harder. With all the rules and deprivation that come with trying to play the game of avoidance, it’s like trying to roll a big ball up a mountain. The weight of the burden keeps you pinned down, stuck in the muck, eventually you realize that you’re miserable and unwilling to continue a moment longer.
Like you, years of yo-yo dieting and binging had my life spinning out of control; I had no power over food.
Until the day when I decided that I was no longer willing to live under the restriction of dieting anymore.
That’s when I finally decided to STOP DIETING! Instead, I decided to get slimmer slowly and naturally while eating the foods I loved by a process of Intuitive Eating. Intuitive Eating is a permission based approach to eating all foods in compliance with your body’s natural hunger.
Like most people, as a dieter for most of my life, I had no idea what true physical hunger felt like. I was always told to avoid getting too hungry.
As a coach, I had learned a ton of wonderful tools that really worked to temporarily eliminate cravings quickly and easily. I had enormous success with my clients, but I decided that I absolutely had to know that I could trust myself around food.
To prove that to myself, I set aside everything that I knew that would be a crutch. I needed to know that this worked so I resolved to test it out. I was even willing to gamble the weight loss that I had successfully maintained for nearly 6 years.
At first the idea of eating anything I wanted terrified me. I was consumed by the fear that I would gain weight but I knew that I could never go back to dieting.
When I began, the good news was that I got very discriminating immediately. I was amazed that I was no longer willing to eat all the junk that I used to consume. That was a stunning realization for me. I knew that something big was happening but my hunger still seemed to consume me. It seemed that no amount of food could satisfy my voracious appetite. At one point, I remember that I was eating every hour on the hour. I was gaining weight like crazy, unable to stop eating, I used food more than ever to console me. Now I know what was missing and why I was eating out of control and I'm here to share it with you so that you don't make the same mistakes I did.
In the years since I made that decision to stop dieting and take back control, I’ve developed a juicy yet easy-to-grasp and easy-to-follow way to help others do the same – all within a safe and nurturing environment we can call a club.
