    Night 6 is under the belt.

    Steph, That sounds like a great cut-off time. Glad to see you here. Good luck to you. You can look back at some older posts if you want. A lot of us have posted what we try to do to fend off the late night snacking monster.... My daughter and I started scrap booking, making tie blankets and pillows and I go to the gym after all the kidos are in bed. Most of the time I come home too tired to eat. (I hit the elliptical hard for an hour and then do some other stuff there too.

    so anyway, my cut off is 3 1/2 hours before my bed time. whether my bedtime is 2am or 11pm. i hope this is a reasonable and valuable cut off time slot.

    .steph.
    I think the 3 1/2 hours prior to bed is an excellent way to go about it when your bedtimes change so drastically. Welcome. This really helps me because I think of all of the people here that I would have to fess up to if I eat after my cutoff time:laugh:

    am: It's okay to start over. It's better than giving up. We've all been there so hang in there and keep on trying. Last month for me was a real struggle. So far this month it's gotten easier.:drinker: :drinker: I drink a lot of water after dinner to keep myself feeling full!

    I'm on day 20 (today) - 19 days down and 11 to go!

    Well, My husband never brought the box of chocolate to work. So, with out thinking last night I popped two in my mouth. O course THEN, I looked at the clock. :tongue: I was below my calorie count so I'm not upset. It is just I was doing so good not snacking after my allotted time.

    So I have to start again.

    Last night I almost flubbed it again, but I put the chips down before I even ate a bite. So I believe that was night 7.... here we go for more.

    Ok, I was doing great until Sunday night. My mom is really sick and the nurse said that she could pass away at anytime, so my schedule is a little weird right now due to staying at my mom and dad's a lot. I will try but it is so hard. Please pray for us. Hope everyone is doing good.

    Thanks.

    I made it through yea, Day 2 the box of chocolates that my husband left on the table are still here (he was suppose to bring them to work a week ago). some are missing. I wonder who ate them. It was just not me. I really think my hubby wanted to keep them here so he could have some. At least I didn't eat the entire box in one sitting. Yea. No chocolates tonight.

    I am doing fine. I am really trying to watch my food intake and I don't get to exercise like I was before, but my family needs me. I haven't gained any weight:bigsmile: , so that is a plus. We are taking it one day at a time. Thanks for all of your prayers.

    I am not online as much because of being at my mom and dad's alot, but I will keep in touch.:flowerforyou:
