    This is my ULTIMATE WEAKNESS!!!!!! I work out 2 a days most of the time, extra long workouts on the weekends. I plan my lunches for my office job, fulfilling healthy dinners for the family, always save plaenty of calories for dinner, but somehow I end up eating almost EVERYNIGHT! Usually not even hunger eating, which really pisses me off! lol! It is like if I start, I just can't stop. I rationalize, and make myself *burn it off tomorrow* promises....Ughhhh I need to be part of this topic :)

    It took me awhile to find this thread. Thanks for starting the April challenge! I was doing well, but Easter week-end threw me off.

    Are there any basic rules - I tend to not use my allowance and then get something before bed and I know it's not good - I'll give this a try.

    I guess the "basic" rules are that if you are late-night snacking when:

    a) you have no calories left in your daily alotment; and
    b) you aren't making GOOD choices of your snacks

    then the point goes to LNS.

    However, if you are purposefully eating late-night to get all your (nutrition-focused) calories in, that's not a bad thing - and, in fact, is encouraged.

    For me, I *know* the difference between BAD LNS and LNS which is happening to finish my daily calories....

    Thanks Beeps, I'm not too bad I think then. I started a week ago and think I've made a bit of a mess of things - most days I didn't make my calorie Target, which I know is not a good thing - apart from Easter Sunday of course!! I went a bit mad on desert after dinner, but my one and only Easter Egg is sitting in my room and I'm scared to open it!! Ha! I have some mild mobility issues but am making a concerted effort to increase excercise - I know my metabolism has taken a bashing and I really need to kickstart it, but I was worrying about the lns - usually toast or a sandwich and then either herbal tea or a milky drink. Want to try and make sure that I have all my nutrients in before maybe 10pm at hte latest (tend to stay up very late too, another unhealthy habit!)
