    I often binge snack in the evenings too. Last night I had baked potato chips in a single portion bag so I would not overeat. I suggest maybe popcorn. You can have a lot of it and it's perfect to sit and watch TV (and share with the hubby).

    Also, this week I have been pre-logging my dinner and snacks before I get home. Planning is key.

    Go for it. If you know that you like to have a snack in the evening, plan ahead for it and allocate the calories, then do it.

    I will often have a small piece of chocolate after 8pm, just because I like to eat it sloooooowly while I sit on my *kitten* for fifteen minutes.

    I also save calories for an evening snack. I like something small like cottage cheese or yogurt with fresh berries and a bit of honey. Those 100-cal popcorn packs are great, too. And I have one drink every night. As long as you're eating mindfully and not mindlessly, it's fine.
