    Not everyone has your iron will power, so a thread like this helps with motivation and accountability.

    Welcome to the newcomers!!
    This is a terrific challenge and it has helped me lose and keep weight off (with a little yo-yoing). Be realistic about your cut-off time and allow for a later time on week-ends or special occasions.
    And, once you've reached your cut-off time, stay out of the kitchen!!

    Wonderful streak!! :)

    If you plan on being up late, why don't you save some calories? I don't understand this challenge...lol

    Some of us have a problem controlling late night "snacking." The challenge isn't called "late night meal." It's about snacking after we've hit our goal for the day. Some of us have issues with mindless snacking in the evening for a variety of reasons. Kudos to you for being able to control your eating! This challenge is for people who need motivation and support to control snacking.

    Mind if I join? I know it's halfway into the month but I'm just getting back on the wagon and this is just what I need. I can be good all day then totally out of boredom eat the same amount of calories over again and not even want to have what I'm eating

    Welcome loz!

    I did have to resort to using my late cut-off when we had company. I probably could have curbed the snacking while playing cards, but I did stop in time so I am still counting it as a victory.
    Kudos for you with sticking to it amidst company!

    Thanks IamIam for the encouragement.

    Just to add to the conversation about late night snacking - having anything caloric after my cut-off time just opens the floodgates to unnecessary calories and unhealthy choices. I need the discipline of this challenge to put the brakes on mindless snacking. We are all just trying to find what works for us and this works for me.
