    Last night I snuck down stairs after dinner (I even had quest pb cups ad dessert) and opened my fridge and opened a container of chocolate mousse and just...smelled it. I really wanted to eat it but I thought of this post so I didn't. I just smelt it for a bit and went back to bed. lol.

    LOL! This sounds like something I would do. Next time I'm craving something I know I shouldn't eat, I'm going to try just sniffing it!

    That was probably my worst habit before I started my program. I know it's sort of dorky, but I brush my teeth as soon as I shower in the evening and that stops me from snacking at night.

    I also got into the mindset that I don't need to snack at night and I've been pretty good at controlling it.

    I have the same problem, but I know it isn't real hunger. I just want to snack at night. I drink a glass of water or hot tea and brush my teeth. Once my mouth is clean I feel bad eating anything else. If that doesn't work, I just go to bed lol.
