WHAT IS SOLUTIONSWEIGH ALL ABOUT?
Virginia Porcello, Ph.D., LMHC, CEDS,
director of Solutionsweigh Program for Eating Disorders, developed
Solutionsweigh from her expertise over the last 25 years of working with
compulsive eaters and binge eaters combined with her personal journey of
weighing over 400 pounds by the age of 19, and losing over 200 pounds and
keeping it off for the last 35 years. She is an expert in the field of
eating disorders.
Dr. Porcello developed this group program
course to teach binge eaters the core work that she has been doing for years
with compulsive eaters. You will experience her passion and humor as she
teaches participants to break through their personal “inner core hungers”
that are still buried for many emotional and compulsive eaters.
You will be absolutely amazed by her ability
to build a safe, supportive environment where she creates feelings of hope
and change for participants. She teaches powerful insights about your “inner
core hungers” that will have profound effects on your binge eating,
compulsive eating behaviors and your relationship with food.

Please note:
This is not a weight loss program, not a
quick fix to your emotional eating issues. The program is an opportunity for
participants to connect to their inner conflicts and change the way they
react to them. It is a program for those who want freedom from self-hatred,
low self-esteem, and judgments and criticisms of themselves. It’s the
difference between living everyday stressing about your overeating and
weight, or living in peace and treating your body with respect, and losing
weight as a result of those changes.
