“Every cent I paid you and am paying you is worth it. You helped me transform and keep going forward when I thought I was a lost cause.”
Every cent I paid you and am paying you is worth it. You helped me transform in a wild way. You helped me feel everything and encouraged me to keep going forward when I thought I was a lost cause—an irreparable mess.

“The best money I ever spent. I lost 35 pounds while eating chocolate and cake. Not only that ... I am happier. My skin is clearer, my hair is better because I feel better about myself. Alana is a Godsend.”
I first saw Alana's IG in August 2022. I was going through a tough time and everything she posted resonated with me so much. I reached out and she emailed me back but I was hesitant. We started working together in September 2022. And it was the best money I ever spent. I have renewed with her twice and will do it again. I have lost 35 pounds while eating chocolate and cake. Not only that... I am happier. My skin is clearer, my hair is better because I feel better about myself. Alana is a Godsend. I only wish I had found her sooner.

“I got a clean bill of health.”
I forgot to share the best news! I got a clean bill of health. Blood pressure is stable. I was given a plan to get off anxiety medication. I was prescribed 2 different kinds of blood pressure medication and now I only need one.

“I want to be free of binge eating disorder. There was stress today but I didn't engage with it. I am happier on days like this. I have more patience with my daughter. I am kinder to my staff. I am more present with my friends. I got this.”
After our session yesterday I was really asking myself if this is what I want to do. Yes I do. I want to be free of binge eating disorder. I refuse to drag this into my old age. I want to enjoy life while I am still young. There was stress today but I didn't engage with it. I am happier on days like this. I have more patience with my daughter. I am kinder to my staff. I am more present with my friends. I got this.

“I feel my meals are balanced and I am happy with myself as I stopped counting calories and macros. I feel less stressed about eating, which is already a big win.”
I feel my meals are balanced and I am happy with myself as I stopped counting calories and macros. It had become a dictatorship, my life was all about it. I hope this can help me reach my ideal weight anyway. For sure I feel less stressed about eating which is already for me a big win.

“From the bottom of my heart, I want to thank you for all the support and preparation you gave me to do this and feel more acceptance, love, relief, and happiness. I couldn't have done it without you and I know it is a big milestone in my life and future that I will never forget.”
So after the breakdown incident with my family, I went to a private lunch with my dad and I want to thank you because I was soooo anxious about telling him how I feel but at the same time I felt so ready and prepared to tell him how I really feel and how certain situations affect me. It was a super emotional lunch and weekend but have to say I 100000000000% feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulder and I've definitely noticed a change in the eating as wellI told him I feel judged by mom and my brother all the time, that her hiding food has a psychological effecti feel unaccepted and have lots of pressure that I'm not married because I'm not skinny. He learned a lot from me. At the same time, he did tell his opinion and that he disagreed with some things that felt because they weren't true at allThe best thing I got out of it was to open up finallybecause I am such a closed shell, and to feel safe to do so. And to hear from him that they love me and accept me no matter what at any sizeand that I need more softness on certain "pressures" So, from the bottom of my heartI want to thank you for all the support and preparation you gave me to do this and feel more acceptance, love, relief and happinessI couldn't have done it without you and I know it is a big milestone in my life and future that I will never forget.

“I was in Jackson Hole with my family, and despite having some lovely moments, being in a new environment with them brought up some stuff for me. As dark moments came up (about food, appearance, attitude, mood swings), I felt myself intuitively reaching for the tools that we worked on together, and after a couple days back in NYC, I felt rebalanced and aware of new growth.”
I hope you're doing well and have enjoyed your summer travels! I was just in Jackson Hole with my family, and despite having some lovely moments, being in a new environment with them definitely brought up some stuff for me. As those dark thoughts came up (about food, appearance, attitude, mood swings), I felt myself intuitively reaching for the tools that we worked on together, and after a couple days back in NYC, feel rebalanced and aware of new growth. It's a great feeling, and I wanted to let you know I was thinking of you and feeling grateful for our time together.

“Everyone is asking what diet I am on and they look really puzzled when I say that I am not dieting.”
My weight is 145.5 which is definitely a surprise to me, I feel like I'm more streamlined, more of an efficient eater but still freely eating and really enjoying everything- wrapping my head around it all - it's not a diet but it's integrating the foods I love and eating healthier overall. At last check up, was told that I should be 145 lbs. so it's interesting that I'm so close to that weight without even trying.

“I am so grateful for not overeating today. I think it was the first day of my life that I went on a vacation and did not overeat.”
This weekend was transformational. I am grateful to my old self. She got me here. I got it from here on out though. I am also crying but it's happy tears it's amazing of the whole world that is out there when I am not focused on food. I like shopping. I like legos. I like trying out new teas. I like taking photos with Characters. I like Christmas. I know I say thank you every time but you're truly a God send in my life.

“Working with Alana is life changing. I set to lose 5-7 pounds, but instead found a new me that I didn't think was possible! I lost over 15 pounds while gaining a healthier relationship with myself and food.”
In the beginning my choice to work 1:1 with Alana was a bit of a struggle because I was afraid to make the investment. Months into 1:1 coaching and the amazing transformation that I've seen in such a short time is pretty much miracle work. The investment I made to work with Alana is 100% worth it. She really gets emotional eating unlike any others coaches I've seen. It does sometimes feel like she's reading my mind. She really gets and understands the motivations and the energy behind emotional eating and the hold it can have on someone's life. With her support, I have been freed from the bondage of emotional eating so that I can focus my energies on living life in abundance.

“I am honestly floored how well today went, not defaulting, putting thought and attention into my meals and meeting with you made SUCH a huge difference! Feeling so grateful.”
Dinner was a salad with falafel and pita. I had about 1/2 the salad and 3 pita points. I felt great, not too full at all. I felt hungry again by 8:15 so I had my coconut yogurt, settling in and getting ready for bed. I’m honestly floored how well today went, not defaulting, putting thought and attention into my meals and meeting with you made SUCH a huge difference! Feeling so gratefulI don't need to be an after thought or operate on autopilot. My body has been through a lot and deserves more care.

“Still feeling amazing.”
Today we had breakfast around 8 at this very fancy buffet overlooking the Blue Ridge Mountains at the Grove Park Inn. They had all sorts of amazing looking breakfast foodsI started off by getting a bowl of Chia seed pudding and topped it with granola, almonds and dried fruit. However, then I saw tofu, scramble and salad, which considering I didn't get a ton of protein yesterday, looked better to me or felt more what my body was craving. I did take both back to the table but ended up only eating a few taste of the Chia seed pudding. I thoroughly enjoyed it but maybe under ate a bit. Then we drove back home, I started getting hunger cues in the car, when we stopped there were some vending machine snacks, but nothing looked appealing or a aligned. When we got home 3 pm, I was fairly hungry had a green smoothie, some salad with hummus, and two grape leaves. Still feeling amazing.
