    I'm going to try this. Due to kids sports schedules there are a lot of late dinners... and obviously those make for a cutoff. On normal dinner nights I'll try for a 8:30 cutoff. I'm usually up until midnight so that makes for a pretty long stretch, but everything i eat after dinner qualifies as empty calories anyway.

    I'm taking this point, even though I ate past my cutoff time as hubby got in late. But we went out for a quick bite, and usually I come home still munching. But I ate a sensible salad for dinner, took only 3 bites of dessert and did not eat anything when I got home. So it is all mine baby.

    For all of your that are struggling, keep up the fight. For me, sometimes it is a week-by-week basis rather than month by month. Some weeks/months/days just roll better than others. You are succeeding!!!

    Me: 5 - LNS: 4 - as I said, LNS don't get two nights in a row either.
    Now it's time to prove I CAN do 2 nights in a row - baby steps. Again! :smile:

    Yes, I still can do this! :wink: Me: 6 - LNS: 4

    Just to everyone on here that is struggling. I truly hope you are able to do this. I am amazed at the difference of my daytime eating now that the nights don't blow me away in calories. I actually feel that I am more in control of every bite, the dreaded night binge no longer sabotages all of the work that I do during the day and my body is balancing out. Good luck to yoU!!!

    Hi-
    Sorry it took me awhile to get my act together and find you. Another busy time, but all good things. My son graduated from college on Mother's Day, which I celebrated with all 3 of my grown sons, my husband and my parents. All went well - a very special week-end.
    I'm keeping my 9:15 cut-off time, but I've lost track of the days w/all the the traveling and celebrating. I'm estimating as follows:
    Me: 5
    LNS: 5
    I am motivated to stay on track because my next big event is my 35th college reunion - talk about pressure!

    New to MFP and just saw this...by far my biggest downfall! My cut off is 7 and only one snack after dinner and it must be a healthy choice. One day every other week I allow a cheat. If were starting from the first of May..

    Good morning-
    Unbelievably my ticker moved today - yeah!!. However, I was SO tired/dozing last night watching TV that I can't remember if I snacked after my cut-off time or not. All those Tate's cookies I ate before my cut-off time must have put me into a real stupor. Since I can't recall and since I ate way too many cookies, I am giving last night to the snacks. :sad: So...

    Hope tonight will be better, but we are taking my mother-in-law out to dinner for her birthday. Hhm. Tough one.

    8 pm is awesome! Whatever works best for you. Some of us are earlier, and some later. I base my cut off time on when I go to bed. If you go to bed at 10 or 11, I think 8 is great! Brushing my teeth when I'm finished eating usually helps me.

    Hilarious, but my next goal is to do 3 nights in a row. Btw, Zaza (welcome back and wow, so many wonderful celebrations!), remember those times when we used to reset the counter each time when we failed? For everyone else: we would only count how many consecutive nights we can get in a month. Starting anew over and over again was sooo frustrating...
