SAY "NO" TO LATE NIGHT SNACKING -- SEPT 2018 CHALLENGE

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 .

You will notice some people post streaks of how many days they are free of late night snacking. This is definitely not a requirement, but if you want to do it for motivation, it works well.

Welcome!

    I did really well last night even though we had a fire with Smores. I kept to my plan of only 1 hot dog and smores to keep it in my calorie goals.

    This helped so much months ago, but then went back to old habits. Time for a change!

    Was sick yesterday so last 2 evenings have been easy. It all helps with breaking the habit though.

    I’m in, starting a bit late but just starting to check out these groups. Late night snacking my weakness. Hoping to get back on track.
