Hey Everyone!
Lately I've started snacking late at night and I know this is not good. Does anyone have any tips to avoid this awful habit?

    First of all, its not "not good", and its not an "awful habit". It has no effect on your weight loss, assuming you have no medical conditions.

    The problems come when you eat your daily calorie allowance through the day, and THEN eat more at night, thus creating a calorie excess. If you simply eat less in the daytime to allow for your late night snacks, its all fine. :)

    80% of my cals are eaten after 10pm, with 4-500 coming literally right before bed.

    I have the same problem and, though I know it is fine to eat later at night provided your stomach is ok with it, I don't tend to eat healthy late at night and in nice little portions. I think once I am in a relationship again, I won't. I never did this when I was married. Dunno.
