If you haven't seen this challenge before, let me brief you about it:
We started this thinking: "Looks like I'm self-sabotaging by munching/bingeing after dinner" or "Mhmm... I'm kinda doubling my in-calories at night".
What you have to do to change the way you feel about your eating at night:
- decide what late night snacking means to you (could be either bingeing, if you're inclined to it or simply eating anything at all after a certain time; some may find that having a healthy snack after dinner is perfectly alright and be upset only when they go overboard)
- report in the thread. We post by the formula:
Me: X vs. LNS: Y,
where X is "how many evenings you stuck to it" and Y "the times late night snacks won". You may want to also add a * to the latest number. Feel free to also post streaks of how many days (in a row) you've managed to be free of late night snacking
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!
Have I touched a cord? Then: You are welcome!

So the rental property is officially rented today, and I commuted to work on my bike for the first time this year! And it's going to be smoking hot all week (for Manitoba!), so win!3 -

Tired + SO having chips right beside me? FAIL. Oh well, back at it although I'm not off work until 8 PM, so nothing after dinner!
Also, like @clutterqueen said, welcome to all newcomers! You can do it, and we all fail - this group is about positivity!2 -

I didn't get home until like 9 PM last night and supper was fast food, but I choose low calorie options so not too bad! And now, WEEKEND!3
