Hi,

My name is Emma and I am currently conducting research which looks at a new way of helping people deal with emotional eating, by using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy principles. This is the first time this approach has been tested in Australia in the context of weight loss maintenance and emotional eating. I am conducting the research through Monash University.

I am looking for people who would be interested in volunteering to participate. The research is based in Melbourne, and it includes attending a 1 day workshop to learn strategies to deal with emotional eating. There are a few eligibility criteria, with the main one being having lost weight within the last 6 months.

You can read more at this link: http://www.monash.edu.au/news/newsl...story/1589

My contact details are: Emma Gallagher, actingonweight@yahoo.com.au and 0468 548 518.

I hope this can provide a new avenue for people struggling with emotional eating.

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards,
Emma.
