    Welcome back ZaZa and me too:laugh: I had computer problems and just made it back to reporting in. NO LNS for me BUT The day time snacking has been a big issue for me. DH has been taking me to and from work as he waits for a part for his vehicle and every day when he picks me up he has a big bag of shelled raw almonds sitting on my seat. I pick them up and one thing has lead to another. UGH!:grumble: Today I am going to be large and in charge. I'l lhave him put the almonds out of my reach. That will do me a world of good! :smile: Hang in there everyone! Just a few more days to go! :drinker:

    :grumble: I just cant seem to get out of the evening snacking habit. Then there is my sugar addict in me that doesnt help. How do you guys do it?

    One day at a time! No seriously, maybe try brushing your teeth after dinner. Pick up a hobby to keep your hands busy.

    I'm sorry I just about missed out on this August challenge because the month is almost over! But this is such a great post! I'm finding that late night snacking is my downfall as well. I'll eat clean all day and then 9-10pm I just start mindlessly snacking like a zombie and can't stop! It's terrible :-(

    Are you ruining the efforts you've made during the day to eat clean and exercise by munching late? Are you turning dinner into the most important meal and snacking all the time until you hit the pillow :embarassed: ? Tired of it :grumble: ? Then join us :wink:.

    We usually set a cut-off time for accountability. You may, but don't have to go cold turkey on food. Feel free to say "no more junk food past 7 p.m.".

    Reporting is in the format:
    Me: "times you won against snacks" - LNS: "points you lost"
    For instance, if you did well until August 5, but then binged before bedtime, then the next morning the score is
    Me: 4 - LNS: 1

    Good luck, everyone! :flowerforyou:

    Okay, I just stumbled onto this challenge. And even though it is almost the end of August, I'm in starting today. The LNS has to STOP or I will never get to my goal. Do you ever get to that point in your mind where you tell yourself: "enough is enough!"? Well that's me today. So I'm not going to wait until September 1st or whenever. Now is the time!

    Me too! Enough is enough!

    Me: all of them:glasses:
    LNS: None of them!:laugh:

    Lets finish strong! One more day. HURRAH! :drinker:

    Easy does it and let's stick with it. :love:

    I'll be back tomorrow evening if I get to come home after my "minor outpatient surgery". :laugh:

    I will definitely NOT be doing any LNS tomorrow night! I am rocking this challenge this month! I've had a few snack slips through the day but for the most part have stayed inside my limits for the day. I am pleased with the progress I am making when it comes to emotional eating. I am ever hopeful of reaching my weight loss and healthy living goals! Lets keep on this support and accountablity going. I"m not sure if this board expires Sept 1st or goes on forever.:laugh: Anybody who knows Please let me know . Hurrah! for everyone who's been posting. :flowerforyou: Each and every one of you are a part of my success!:drinker: THANK YOU!:happy:

    You have a special schedule, so adapt the challenge to your situation. For instance, make it a healthy snack and then the point is yours :wink:.

    This is my best month ever--even if I do mess up and LNS tonight, which I will not :tongue:

    I can start September's thread--look for it tomorrow morning!! (I've not been feeling too hot the last few days either--maybe that's why I had zero desire to LNS.)
