    Debilang, my heart goes out to you. I know how sad it is to lose a beloved pet. X x:flowerforyou:

    Thank you, Kate...it meant the world to me that you understand. I know you will have a great time in sunny Kenya!! Take care :)

    Starting Day 15 today.

    I did snack yesterday but with regards to LNS last night I was a good girl. Just yummy lentil soup, a slice of bread and Greek yogurt with berries for dinner, then just peppermint tea in the evening.


    LNS 13.5
    Me 0.5

    Snacking in general ? I've lost count, maybe 2 days this month. Fridays and Saturdays are the toughest


    Back to no snacks again from today. 4 days till hols so it all counts now.

    Well done everyone, people are doing so well :drinker:

    You are soo encouraging, Kate...GOOD JOB!!! :happy: :happy:

    Late snacking is my biggggest problem. I can be good alll day, and even excercise. And then those cravings for snacking just take over and then I turn into a monster, and sabotage the whole day. After reading your post and some of the other members, I vow not to snack tonight and join you with no eating after 7pm. I will start a count too, of how many "no snacking" evenings I can complete.

    So far so good.

    I am exactilly the same, how has it been?

    It's 1 am and I'm avoiding snacking by typing this right now...

    Nights just kill me! I feel like I'm hungry all the time.

    We had a party on Friday night and I was still munching on potato chips at 11:00 pm....ugh.

    That's as high an LNS as I've had, mid-month, in SEVERAL MONTHS. So, I really want to taper this down for the remainder of July. Enough is enough. Bad carbs begone!!

    Day 17 on July's LNS

    LNS. 0.5. (bloody hell thats good)

    Me. 15.5

    I also am trying to quit snacking as even though they are healthy ones, i tend to eat them just or the sake of it. I am on nights again at the moment and I am doing really well. I eat a light dinner around half 6, then hold out till around 3am where I eat my first part of breakfast, a banana, then a porridge around 5am then a couple of bits of toast at 9 before bed.Ideally I wouldn't be awake during lunch but th e phone man came ths afternoon so I only slept for a couple of hours. Off to bed now again to see if I can cram in some more sleep. 2 days till holidays and lovely warm sun, yay :drinker:

    Well done everyone.ths group is keeping me strong :wink:

    Tired...got up at 4am (Pacific Time...San Francisco)...stayed up cause wanted to attend a business presentation 40 miles away. Commute traffic was horrendous...sleepy...and had to keep myself awake...but knew I wasn't going to make presentation so FINALLY got off an exit and headed home...Sheesh...I don't miss Commute Traffic...Great on NO LNS...Hope everyone is doing good, too! But don't give up! Keep Going!

    I joined late, too...but it is a continuation of last month which I stopped logging in. I am reading a book about mindless eating. I made a checklist which makes me accountable. I say I won't eat anything after 8pm...and I can check my day off if I did not LNS. Habit is the only thing that will get us to STOP LNS...Good Luck...you can do it! I drink tea, or water...or brush my teeth...or just go to bed...heheh! Take care! :flowerforyou:

    I have been out of control and have lost track. I'll give July my best guess:
    Me: 4
    LNS: 14
    With this track record, I can't help but have a better month in August!

    This would be right up my alley if I had the will power. How do you get it? Yes I want to lose the weight. I gotta try. I promise I will do the best I can to not eat anything after 10:00 and anything that I eat after 7:00 will be healthy.

    You can do this! Will Power is willing to be Accountable...I know...because it took me a couple of tries (okay maybe more)...but, now I have a checklist every night, and this Group that I log and share that I did not LNS :smile: It may be difficult the first few days...but...I want to head down again in my weight loss goal...and have been successful just in this last week... Stick with us...and GOOD LUCK :flowerforyou:
