For me, it's right after lunch (like right NOW). I would love a bit of chocolate or some cake......

    Same time for me, especially when it's a coworkers birthday today and there is a huge delicious looking vanilla cake out on the break room table.

    If I can't see it, it's not there....so I am avoiding the break room for the rest of the day and I'm hugging my water bottle.

    It's night time for me. I work all day, then get home at 5 to cook and clean for the kids and husband, and t hen when I finally have time to sit down and relax, I can eat everything in sight. When i am super busy at work, I can go the entire day without eating (having only a coffee) and then eat for an hour straight when I'm home. I'm trying to eat more throughout the day and cut myself off at 8 pm now though.

    Between dinner and bedtime. Not made any easier by the fact we now have dinner an hour earlier.

    I get super hungry around 3 pm and crave food to fill me up.

    In the evening, I get cravings for chocolate, but it's more about comfort food than hunger.

    For me it's later in the evening, usually when i'm catching up on a tv show or reading. That's when I get the urge to snack.

    Usually I get a snack attack between the time I get home from work and when dinner gets done....

    Same here, I start craving random things after dinner before bed. I literally have to lay myself down in order to not raid the fridge or pantry

    Not time of day per say but the weekends are the hardest for me temptations wise. And the time when I get home from work and I have to prepare dinner. This is when I want to snack like crazy, or do lots of tasting of the foods that I am making for dinner.

    Right after I get home from work. Usually about 4PM. To early for dinner, but the change of pace makes me want to snack. Then lessor extent the last hour or 2 before I go to sleep.

    I find it hard to fight temptation when you get sleepy too.

    Lunchtime on work days (T,W,Th). I eat with my co-workers in the cafeteria, and I'm bored with the salad bar (it's been exactly the same stuff for years). So I tend to get things like quesadillas and chicken caesar wraps. What I really wish is that I had a stove here so I could sautee some spinach and garlic and eat it on flatbread or in a wrap.

    Usually night times, but it caught me unawares this morning, and into this afternoon even, I could just eat today, not sure why!

    I think around 10 o'clock at night is the worst for me.

    After lunch, I tend to want to eat the afternoon snack I packed...even though I'm not hungry per se. If I eat it too early, I get really hungry around 4pm until dinnertime, because that is SUPPOSED to be when I eat my snack!!!

    ...yep, just ate my cashews. I will be sorry (and hungry) in about 3 hours!!!

    Between dinner and bed time. I'm a nite owl. Not usually in bed til around 1am. I will have a snack, but sometimes I want to eat more than I should. And I know it's mostly boredom not hunger. And hubby is a truck driver so only home every other weekend and I have a hard time then too.

    Late at night.
    I don't like going to bed early, but sometimes I have to, to avoid snacking!
