    Oops. Late night flight on Friday (so plane snacks), then a round of Christmas parties on Saturday, and now a late night dip into Christmas cookies. Too removed from my normal routine.

    A friend invited me over to his house late a couple of nights this week.. and I didn't eat dinner til then. Still, there should be no excuse for me to be eating that late.

    You can combat this by allowing yourself the choice of a later cut off a couple of nights a week. It is very empowering, Because you are choosing, so you do not need an excuse. I find that I seldom use my late cut-off option.
    I set my December cut-off goals as:
    • 9pm 5/7 nights per week
    • 10pm 2/7 nights of my choice per week
    ...then I decide which two nights (if any) I have the later cut-off.

    My finale for September:
    Me: 30* …
    LNS: 0 …
    Streak: 30 … (60 overall) …

    That's it! A full calendar month without LNS! I've never…and I mean NEVER gone through a calendar month without late night grazing. I'm proud of all of us for the decisions represented in the preceding pages. Great job!

    Wisdom expressed by several seems appropriate for the new comers: Set a goal that allows for life. If you tell yourself "I'll never ever ever again…" you're set for failure, eventually. Some people set different cutoffs for weeknights and weekends, others have situational releases. For me, a goal like "no LNS 6 out of 7 nights" works. You decide what works for YOU. …

    Okay friends, we have about 10 days left in the month. Let's finish strong! My cold is much better, so I'm back to my exercise routine. It was a challenge not to LNS when I was sick! Though I was over cals, I did not snack and stayed strong, though.

    During the day, cravings are at an all time high right now! There is so much stuff around me. I love the cut off time, 7pm. The cravings just vanish. It's such a relief. <3

    My plan for the rest of the year :): Christmas Eve and New Years Eve. The rest of the days, I'll be done at 7pm.

    Back on track! This is a season of temptations: all normal routines have vanished, more munchies available, more eating out, no time to exercise. But it is true that the LNS cutoff makes me feel more in control. And I'm trying to keep tracking. About 100-200 calories over my limit every day.

    I guess I should mention I'm on winter holiday and visiting out of town relatives.

    Oh well, did great most days. Only 150 over my cals today despite a few mindless cookies this pm. Tomorrow the streak starts again.
