    Oops :blushing: Snack 1/Lorna 4

    Got home late last night and we were sort of celebrating so I was energized. My small victory was that I ate a little homemade vegetarian chili and a bowl of fruit salad instead of cupcakes and cookies.

    You all are doing great. Keep it up.

    Tonight for me. 7:30

    Well, my cut off was 7:30 but I didn't get home til 8:30. I kept making excuses for why I should eat, but then realized I wasn't actually hungry, so I stayed strong.

    6 me/1 snack. I'm off to a much better start this month.

    This weekend is 9:30 (although depending on hubby's schedule, I'm aiming for 8:30 if I can convince him to feed me sooner)

    Lulabelle, You did great. Personally, I think you should count that as a success. You got home late (not your fault). And the food was nutritious. :flowerforyou:

    I'm 5 vs the snacks 1

    I finished all my eating before 9 :drinker: (though I ended it with sweets, which is not really like me :embarassed: ). Anyway, nothing past 9, so Dew: 6 - Late snacks: 0.

    Tonight I'll try hard to eat well before going out, but should that be too long before going to bed, I'm allowed to eat something after my cut-off, provided I stay within calories. Gotta be reasonable, right? :wink:

    Everyone's doing so well! Can you believe it's been a week and we're all far ahead of the late snacks? Keep up the good work, team! :flowerforyou:

    Hi everyone! I know it's the 8th of the month but I'd love to join you in this challenge. I am a big nighttime snacker. Cheese, olives and crakers are my vices. I could easily lose 10 pounds just by cutting those foods out. I am not even hungry when I eat them - it's just a habit.
    Any words of advice?

    I regard last night as another success - no snacks, thought I had a very light "dinner" a bit past my cut-off (but was under my calories even after eating), so Dew 7 - Late Snacks 0

    slimkitty, welcome! Brush your teeth after dinner and stay strong - no more food afterwards! If you need to put something in your mouth, make yourself a cup of tea. Report here every day, if you can - having to tell us how it all went might make you think twice :wink:. And be prepared for some struggle - it's not easy to break a bad habit. Good luck! :flowerforyou:

    8 me/snacks 1

    Did pretty good this weekend. My cut off was 9:30 for Friday through Sunday, and I was done each night by 8:30, so I had a pretty good weekend.

    Tonight, 7:30

    Last night went pretty much according to the plan I had made in the morning. I knew I was going to go past my cut-off again, but it was a light dinner and not munching, so Dew: 9 - Late snacks: 0. :smile:

    with this challenge- are you all still eating at the same time as before? or eating later?

    thanks!

    Well, earlier!, since there's nothing after dinner. Dinner is at the same time, or even earlier, if it works for you.
