    I haven’t gone overboard this week. Trying to cut out alcohol this week to conserve calories. This is day 4 without and the calories haven’t been more than 100 over my daily goal.

    I'm upset with myself lately.
    2 weeks ago I was 154.8 pounds. I'm 5'5" tall. Today I was 162. 7 pounds!! I have logged everyday and see that I gone over almost everyday. Weekly report telled me I gone over with almost 5000 calories for the last 2 week's combined.

    Its frustrating and I'm mad at myself. Its extra annoying when I also started to run, and have been running almost everyday for the last 2 weeks as well. I run 6 miles without stopping.
    I feel like I should be losing weight working that hard. My average daily steps are 16k according to Garmin. But in the end it comes down to how you eat. I'm eating way to much.

    Thank you.
    Yes. I have to be more disciplined. I have lost 30 pounds since last October. I'm not about to mess that up now.

    We used to have a weekly group working on this! A few years back, I took a break from MFP for a while.
    Now I've got trouble with daily snacks as well... I compensate that by burning out more but that's not the long-term solution...
    Let's work on this together!

    Something I recently discovered about late-night snacking: make sure you are getting enough protein earlier in the day.

    I just found out I wasn't getting enough protein, so i upped my protein intake. Wouldn't you know this solved the problem! :smile:

    It's funny you say that I have been trying to get more protein. It seems to help
    Thanks for the help and good luck.

    Nothing wrong with snacking but chose healthy snacking more often than junk food is key. Try to keep fresh cut veggies in the fridge. That way you can just grab them when you are hungry. You won't have to cut them up. This is what I am doing.
