SAY "NO" TO LATE NIGHT SNACKING -- DECEMBER 2015 CHALLENGE

Welcome to the December challenge!!! Wow...2015 is almost over already!

Tired of self-sabotaging by munching after dinner? Upset that you double your in-calories at night? Then it's not just me . To get some help (or inspire us by your good example), please join us in this challenge.

You set what you feel is late night snacking. For example, if you have extra calories left for the day, you can have a snack if it's small. Others decide not to eat at a past a certain time. It's up to you.

We go by the formula:
Me: "number indicating how many evenings you stuck to it"
LNS: "number of times late night snacks won"

Example: Me: 2 - LNS: 0 indicates I won the first two nights.

Some people also add a * to the latest number. In the example, that would be
Me: 2 - LNS: 1*
if LNS won the 3rd night.

It's as simple as that. Or as complicated, as you will discover. Nevertheless, the persistence and good results of some of our "old" members (and some people keep coming back) show that the battle is worthwhile .

Welcome!

    All the Thanksgiving goodies are gone (sadly, they were eaten and not put in freezer) -
    A fresh start for me

    Okay, here I go again. November challenge really made me more consciously aware of my snacking habits. Goals for December are: 1) No snacking after 8 pm on weekdays; after 10 pm on weekends. 2) Drink tea or water after 8 pm. 3) Try to beat my 21 day streak from November.

    Last night was a success. Even tho I started to feel hungry, I said NO to LNS and I feel SO much better today! I have to remember that.
    Good luck tonight everyone.
