Discover my breakthrough formula, that banishes emotional eating, food guilt, and weight fluctuations! No more closet shuffling between "fat" and "skinny" clothes. No more Shame and Guilt about your body! Learn how I conquered a 20-year battle and finally achieved Body and Food Freedom, without:

- Magical whishes
As a lifelong yo-yo dieter, I know first-hand the struggles of constantly battling with your weight and feeling shame and guilt for not being able to control your eating habits. It can be frustrating to try every diet and weight loss program out there, only to end up back where you started.
But don't blame yourself –we have been taught to believe that restrictive diets are the only way to lose weight, leading to rebound weight gain and a negative relationship with food and your body.
The good news is that there's a better way. You can break free from the yo-yo diet trap and learn to nourish your body without feeling deprived or restricted. And the best part? It doesn't have to be years of trial and error like I went through.
It took me 10 years to finally gather all the missing pieces and put them together. It's been a long, often emotional journey filled with ups and downs. But, I can honestly say that it's all been worth it.
Along the way, I've met so many amazing mentors and tried countless techniques. Some worked for me, and others didn't. But, through it all, I learned so much about myself and what I truly needed to thrive. And, that's how I discovered my unique formula.
It's been an incredible transformation for me, and I'm so excited to share my knowledge and experiences with others who are struggling with the same issues. I know what it feels like to be stuck in that vicious cycle of weight loss and weight gain, and it can be such a painful and emotional place to be. But, with my method, you can finally break free from that cycle and achieve the food freedom and weight loss goals you've been dreaming of.
So, if you're feeling frustrated, hopeless, or overwhelmed, know that there's hope. You don't have to continue struggling on your own.
I know it may sound too good to be true, but trust me, I understand where you're coming from. Twenty years ago, I never would have believed that I could break free from the food prison I was in. The self-punishment and body hate were overwhelming, and I didn't think there was a way out.
But, over the years, I've developed techniques that have completely transformed my relationship with food and my body. And the best part? Some of these techniques can remove cravings in just one session. It may sound unbelievable, but I've seen it happen with my own clients and myself over and over again! The look on my clients' faces when their cravings disappear is truly Priceless!
Hi, my name is Elleria, (known as Ellie), I’m a body confidence coach. And for 20 years, diet after diet failed me, my binges got worse and bulimia was the result. I ended up feeling lost, alone, ashamed and out of control! It got so bad I found myself deeper into my depression and I couldn't see a way out!
I knew how to lose weight, but I couldn’t stand the hunger! The pull to all the forbidden foods was too tempting and too strong. The devil in me always won. Hello, guilt and shame!
More shame was to come – my "lack" of willpower and the fact that I had failed...... again…….meant it is time for another diet! The only thing I could think of was…. "Fuck it! Since it’s already ruined I’ll just eat everything I can get my hands on!" And the binge zombie took over!
Constantly Comparing
Myself to others, Thinking;
WHY CANT I LOOK LIKE HER?
I was 14 years old when my issues with food and my weight started….. I remember looking in a fashion magazine, my eyes stopping on a picture of a model, thinking WHY CANT I LOOK LIKE HER? Skinny, pretty, carefree, flawless, and gorgeous.
Comparing myself to perfectly photo-shopped images. Always comparing myself to my skinnier and prettier friends. Never feeling as pretty or skinny as they were.
My self-esteem was broken. I had been bullied since I was 7 because I was shy, tiny and easy to pick on.
At the age of 3, I was in an accident and I got burned over 15% of my body, scarred for life, always feeling different, damaged and broken!
So I figured, if I look skinny, I can hide my damaged body. I learned to skip meals, or not eat at all. And when I ate too much, I knew how to get rid of it. I was constantly hungry, and obsessing about food!!! Always counting calories and exercising like I was preparing for the Olympics.
The fear and shame of losing control and gaining weight was always present!
I so desperately wanted to be skinny, to be liked and to feel pretty. And I kept failing over and over again! Losing weight, and gaining weight!
I was hungry, tired, and alone with my shit. I hated my body!!! Why did I have to have this worthless, damaged, ugly, fat body!?! I was trying so hard, trying to find something that would work. A few of the things I tried and failed:
- Weight Watchers - with all the food rules and points to follow, the fear of the scale and the number it would show as a proof of if I´d been "good" or "bad". To stressful! I ended up eating and obsessing more about food and failed completely.
- Atkins and any other diet that was the "thing" that was supposed to work and keep me skinny!
- Fasting - the more I wasn't supposed to eat the more I wanted to eat, stuck in obsessive thoughts about food!
- Disgusting apple cider vinegar to "burn fat".
- Pills and other potions I could find, anything would do!
- Smoking packets of cigarette, was a big "meal substitue" for me.
- Other meal replacements, didn´t fill my hunger at all or stopped my obsessive thoughts about food!
It pissed me of thinking about how our society makes us feel, how it keeps us trapped in a war with our bodies and with the beauty ideals that are all around us.
It pissed me off that I was stuck in that quick-fix mentality way too long, and I hate it with passion!!! I see how much the weight loss companies contribute to the suffering that we already have. They keep us feeling like failures. The truth is diets are not designed to be sustainable for the long run. Diets keep our bodies and minds in a stressed-out state, activating our survival responses. Hello more failure!
It pissed me off thinking about all the money, and time I wasted, and all the hopes and dreams dashed on the quick-fix weight loss industry.
Nothing made sense. How could others do what I seemed to have zero success in doing? Staying skinny!
I had no idea what to do, who to go to, or how to stop my food issues. I felt so much shame for not being able to control my food issues and stay skinny.
Do you know what the sad part is? My story is not unique at all. There are millions of women, men, girls, and boys struggling just like you and me. I choose to share my story so you know that you are NOT ALONE, and so you know that it does NOT have to be this way.
My permanent and healthy weight loss wasn’t about calories in and calories out. That only treated the symptoms, not the root causes to why I was eating the way I was.
On my healing journey, I cleared the reasons:
- WHY I was overeating or not eating at all.
- WHY I was punishing myself, with deprivation, extreme amount of exercising, purging and all the other crap I did to myself.
- WHY I was pushing myself, never feeling good enough in any area of my life. The voice in my head was ruthless, kept reminding me of what a failure I was.
The journey towards breaking free from the yo-yo diet trap felt like a bumpy, lonely, overwhelming, and a never-ending road. There were times when I thought I would never be able to figure it out, but I was determined to keep going.
I was searching for something that I didn't even realize I needed or what I was searching for.
Until I came across a few different mentors along the way. Each of my mentors all had valuable pieces of the puzzle that contributed to my healing. They gave me the guidance, understanding, AHAs, and knowledge that I didn't have. They each brought their own unique perspective and expertise to the table, which opened my eyes to different ways of looking at my situation.
Thanks to these different mentors, I learned about the factors that had been contributing to my cycle of deprivation and overeating, including emotional triggers, negative self-talk, and unrealistic expectations. With their guidance, I was able to shift my mindset towards self-compassion, mindfulness, and setting realistic goals. Through all the pieces I collected, and all the different tools I came across along the way, I learned to heal my heart and cultivate a love for my body that I never thought was possible. Thanks to All the Knowledge and Experiences during my time stuck in the trap and my time trying to get out of the trap. I was able to develop my unique approach and formula to break free from the yo-yo diet trap once and for all!
And it was working. I was doing it. And not only did I lose weight and keep it off, I also felt grateful for and loving toward the body I was in. The same body I once had hated!
I noticed some major shifts taking place:
- I stopped emotionally eating because I realized I was actually hungry for comfort, connection, love, support and to be included!
- I became free from my obsessive cravings – no more binging!
- I easily chose healthier foods to nourish my body.
- I could eat what I wanted without guilt and shame – I gave up the FOOD RULES and knew when to stop naturally!
- I found exercises that I actually enjoy doing, that feel good for my body! No more “no pain, no gain” mentality and obsessing about if I’ve exercised enough to get rid of the cake I had.
Coming through on the other side of the yo-yo diet trap, Food Freedom was just one of many rewards.
It had ripple effects in so many areas of my life.
- My inner perfectionist calmed down.
- My anxiety dropped
- My mood swings calmed down so I could finally express what was going on within me.
- My relationship with my loved ones improved immensely.
- My sleep improved.
- I could set healthy boundaries for myself. I became comfortable saying no to others, and yes to myself - no more people pleasing!
- My depression disappeared.
- My self-trust grew. No matter the chaos around me, I used my new tools to anchor myself through the storm.
Now it is my mission to share my knowledge with as many as possible. I don’t want you to spend decades trapped in a game you can’t win!
You are not meant to:
- Struggle with food - one of our most important basic needs.
- Miss out on life because you hate your body.
You are meant to:
- Have fun in life, enjoy your relationships, feel energized and create the life you want and deserve.
- Feel beautiful, loveable, confident and worthy.
My path to freedom was long and challenging! It took the guidance of several mentors, as well as a variety of approaches and techniques. But finally, I reached a state of freedom that allowed me to nourish my body in a healthy way and appreciate the body I was in.
My approach is very different from what you have tried before. You will remove the reasons why you are stuck in the never ending cycle of diets. The roller coaster of your weight going up and down. You will lose weight and finally keep it off for good! Here is how:
- You will learn the tools to eliminate cravings and end emotional eating.

What a few clients from around the world are saying;
Laura, Malta: "I have worked with a numerous of different professionals throughout years but the most profound and life changing work for me personality was with Ellie. What I liked most is that she is not working according to the ‘book’ and using the same method for everyone but really see you as an individual and applying different techniques that are most suitable to you at that given moment. You get to understand yourself and the deep root causes that drives your behaviour (addictions, self-sabotage, body image etc etc). We worked on different food cravings which I still find absolutely mind blowing how after just one session I no longer had those cravings ever since. When it comes to diet and weight loss I was given completely new understanding and tools that actually work. It’s sad to see now that there is so much misconception around this subject out there and I can clearly see now why most of the diets do not work. The work I have done with Elleria and results I have from this work over just a few sessions saved me from spending years of common therapy - to get anywhere close to the same outcome. Ellie is incredibly intuitive, sincere, and deeply passionate and has definitely found her calling as a body confidence coach. Her caring and positive personality makes it easy to open up to and wonderful to work with."
Hanna from Sweden: "If you are struggling with body confidence, cravings, migraine attacks as a coping skill for the stress and underlying issues. Working with Ellie will help you to find your way through those core issues. You will receive valuable exercises and lifelong tips that will make a huge difference in your life.
The work with Ellie has helped me with stress and relaxation. Me, reaching for chocolates or my migraine have been my bodies way to react to the stress in my life. And the tools and techniques Ellie has taught me, like EFT, as one example, have helped me to listen more to my bodies signals. To recognise what it is trying to say and connect to the signals and to the underlying emotions and experiences. This has made my daily life so much easier since I am able to relax and take better care of myself.
My cravings for chocolate have changed. I am in a place where I don’t crave and eat mindlessly, without control of the amount. If i want to eat a piece of chocolate I do, but it’s so different, I don’t feel guilty when I do eat. I feel satisfied in a way i have never experienced before.
I am also able to reduce the strength of a migraine attack with the tips and tricks I have received during our sessions and it have made everything so much easier ☺ I feel in control both when it comes to my cravings and my migraines."
Anca from Romania:
"Elleria is a bright and warm light in this world. She is an EFT practitioner who creates space for her clients to be themselves, to speak and to feel. She made me feel heard and understood and I felt very safe to open my heart and let go of some heavy emotional baggage.
I only had the chance to be supported by her online. We haven’t met in person yet 😊. One of the topics we worked on was the feeling of overwhelm that I had been having for a long time, in various areas of my life. Something that was slowing me down, making me feel sad and angry, and really powerless.
At the end of that session I felt like a heavy cloud had been taken out from my heart and my head. I felt clarity and enthusiasm. I will never forget how surprised I was of the shift.
I was also lucky to be part of some EFT group sessions Elleria led. They were very powerful, effective and very beautiful. She worked on heavy topics with grace and professionalism.
I already recommended Elleria to my close friends and family. She is a professional I trust, a very compassionate and warm human being and I am extremely gratefully to have met her."
Sara from Israel: "I have been stuck with being connected to myself and my emotions in all areas.
I was in a constant conflict between my feelings and body- to my mind, logic and soul.
It was hard for me to be in touch with my inner self.
I was unable to define what it was exactly that I was feeling, but I knew I just felt miserable.
I kept walking around with resentment towards my surroundings, but most of all I felt uncomfortable just being in my own body!
I was bothered by the fact that my body has so many needs and requires so much attention all the time, so I would just ignore my needs and emotions, and that made everything much worse.
Working with Ellie has been an amazing uplifting experience for me!!
Ellie helped me at first to simply be aware of the dynamic (of disregarding my body and emotions) I was in-that I was not aware of.
Then guided me through the process of getting to know myself on a deeper level, listening to that inner voice and getting in touch with my real intuition.
By getting in touch with my body I discovered that I am actually a very emotional person but I never knew it.
And I found out that my body has so much to say and tell me but i was never there to listen.
Thanks to Ellies guidance and support I no longer resist my body, but treat it with love and care like it deserves.
It is an incredible experience that I have never had before!
But most important of all- Ellie helped me connect body to soul and now I can continue the journey of my life in a much more healthy and balanced way!
I highly recommend working with Ellie, first of all because of who she is.
Ellie stands out with her compassion, wisdom and care.
She is fully associated in her clients reality
and truly wants her clients to be successful,feel cared for and loved.
Ellie is fully educated with several different methods and techniques that will help you move forward in life.
If you work with Ellie I guarantee you'll become much more emotionally healthy and receive tools to cope with your life challenges and difficulties. And most important of all- you'll begin to love yourself and your life!"
Isabelle from New York:
"Dear Elleria, I am so thankful for the immensely freeing and healing EFT session you provided me with. You've guided me beautifully releasing the fear, the panic and the back pain I was experiencing at the prospect of losing my best friend. My emotions were so charged, it had me incapacitated soon after the terrible news.
I knew I needed help. My back had spams and I could barely get in and out of my car and I was so scared and at a loss. What I did not expect, is to feel the very clear and light sense of freedom I felt when the negative charges of my emotions were lifted and when I realized that my body was completely free of physical pain!!
It was such an exciting moment!! I was feeling so light and happy all of a sudden, that I could barely contain my joy!! I giggled inside and I was smiling if you recall. I had now enough energy to work through uplifting my friend's energy along with you.
After all, the back pain evaporated and my emotional state cleared of any negativity.
I was balanced but I felt on a high too!!😃
I really didn't expect to feel that good and without feeling guilty about it either.
You, Elleria!!😊 I felt your caring touch and the love you brought in, the kindness and compassionate guiding words. I appreciate the fact that you reminded me to get back on track to the benefit of my friend whenever I felt astray and how your words helped me formulate and dive into a wonderful supportive surrogate EFT session consequently. You are truly a great practitioner and I am very grateful for the opportunity you've given us."
Karen, NSW, Australia: "I met Ellie several months ago. She immediately impressed me with her warmth, compassion & authentic nature. She has helped me heal my own past using the echo tapping & been encouraging to me in work with my own clients. I can genuinely recommend Ellie to anyone wanting to work on & heal their deeper selves. She is gentle & will support you in your healing process."
Julia from Germany: "I have to tell you, we really nailed that old marriage thing that haunted me for years. You tapped with me to the bottom of the issue where I could release it deeply and completely. I could not believe that it all went away so fast. Since our session I feel at peace with him and have this warm comforting feeling inside that everything is okay the way it is. I am so glad I met you, as your heartfelt compassion paired with your clear understanding to see through things gave me a feeling of being at the right place working on that topic with you. Thank you again!"
Cat from UK: "I approached Elli to support me on my relationship to money. In particular, charging enough for my work and trusting that I can earn consistently good money in my life.
The worked unearthed several things that were getting in the way of having a clear relationship to money.
Some people pleasing, some feelings of worth, some understanding that to "make good money" may disturb the balance of some relationships, some unraveling of family beliefs
I found myself becoming much clearer in my communication about my work. I stopped trying to "be all things to all people" and be a little more focused. I also stopped working on projects that did not have a clear financial outcome.
Well apart from the warmth of her heart, Ellie has an ability to help you get under the skin of the issue you are working with. She understands and can bring forward all the relevant threads that lead you to where you are today. And she can do that because she has done a lot of that work herself so you have a feeling you are in it with someone who knows how you feel.
And as I said, she has a lot of heart, so she is very compassionate in her approach which makes a big difference.
The shifts I have noticed after working with Ellie is
Much more clarity about my relationship with money.
Much more confidence in the choices I make in my work and the things I stop doing.
I have also learnt how not to "get stuck" when something comes up, when I spot a belief that maybe unhelpful This is an incredibly powerful gift that means I can tend to myself going forward."

And if you are a candidate to work with my method.
EFT, Emotional Freedom Technique (also called Tapping) is a technique that combines elements of traditional therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and acupuncture. EFT involves tapping on specific acupressure points on the body while focusing on a particular issue or problem. It's a method of releasing negative emotions, beliefs, and traumas from the body and mind, and replacing them with empowering ones.
The theory behind EFT is that negative emotions and beliefs cause energy blockages in the body, which can lead to physical and emotional problems. By tapping on these acupressure points, we can release these blockages and restore the body's natural energy flow. EFT can be used to address a variety of issues, such as anxiety, depression, phobias, addictions, trauma, physical pain and weightloss.
Oh yes!
EFT has been used to address weight loss, emotional eating, and cravings. Here are some more specific research, statistics, and results:
Weight Loss: A randomized controlled trial published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine in 2013 found that EFT was effective in reducing body weight, BMI, food cravings, and anxiety in overweight and obese adults. The study included 96 adults, who were randomly assigned to either an EFT group or a control group. The EFT group received eight 60-minute EFT sessions, while the control group received no treatment. The EFT group showed a significant reduction in body weight, BMI, food cravings, and anxiety, compared to the control group.
Emotional Eating: A randomized controlled trial published in the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology in 2016 found that EFT was effective in reducing emotional eating in overweight and obese women. The study included 83 women, who were randomly assigned to either an EFT group or a control group. The EFT group received four 90-minute EFT sessions, while the control group received a weight management intervention. The EFT group showed a significant reduction in emotional eating, compared to the control group.
Cravings: A randomized controlled trial published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine in 2012 found that EFT was effective in reducing food cravings in a sample of 96 adults. The study included an EFT group and a control group, with the EFT group receiving eight 60-minute EFT sessions and the control group receiving no treatment. The EFT group showed a significant reduction in food cravings, compared to the control group.
Meta-analysis: A meta-analysis of 14 studies published in the Journal of Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine in 2017 found that EFT was effective in reducing food cravings and body weight. The studies included in the meta-analysis focused on various issues related to weight loss, including food cravings, emotional eating, and body weight. The meta-analysis found that EFT was associated with significant reductions in food cravings and body weight.
