This challenge is a great motivator for me. LNS has been my downfall for years. I would stay in goals all day and give in at night. Even if I had cal left I would go over snacking. Thank you all.
Oct goal no snacking after 9:30 pm (was 10 for Sept).
Sept streak 19 (restarted 9/12)

Are you all eating enough during the day? Maybe you're just not eating enough & still hungry?

I’m in! Late night snacking has been a major problem for me during my weight loss. I’ve lost over 100lbs, but LNS has definitely slowed my progress at times. I stay up really late, so my goal is to not eat anything after midnight.

I’ll start tonight and begin updating my progress tomorrow. Good luck to everyone.

As @WalkerPop said, it's about being in control...not about being hungry. Many of us will do just fine all day long and then in the evenings, we end up eating stuff we may not even really want but it's there and we do it. Once we start, we just don't stop. This challenge is to help with the mindless eating that LNSnacking can create.

Darn it! I was super tired and feeling hungry so i had a handful of dry pretzel sticks. Diet day 1 probably asking a bit much. Still well with my kcal target ☺️Onwards and upwards!

I would so love to do this but I work 3rd shift so I would fail by the first day but this is really a good idea!!!

Goal: Eat no snacks outside of my calorie goal after dinner 6/7 nights per week. Pre-logged snacks are okay!

Late night snacking is fine as long as you're still within your deficit. It doesn't matter when you eat as long as you're not going over.
On the weekends sometimes I go over in the middle of the night and count it as breakfast the next day if i know I'm going to be sleeping in until mid day. I'm still losing.

Yes, you're right that the deficit --not the time of day -- is key.

However, the only time of day that I'm tempted to mindlessly overeat is after about 8 pm. So, for me, this challenge is about breaking that habit.

There's no quicker way for me to ruin a day's deficit eating than by sitting down with a bowl of chips at 9 pm.

The thing about this challenge is YOU get to set up your own rules. Since you work 3rd shift, you are going to bed at different times than many of us so that would just mean you decide what your cut-off time is and then just start logging it. This isn't really a competition...it's just about accountability to oneself.
