    7 me/1 snack

    (Going to bed at 6 p.m. didn't hurt either)

    Everyone have a busy weekend? Hope to see you back soon...

    Hi slrose - I hear ya with the popcorn - maybe one of those 100 cal mini bags would do the trick. :drinker: Keep at it, there are ways to fight those sneaky little snacks. Best to you!

    Best to all tonight!

    Dew - Hope all is going well. :flowerforyou:

    I am in, as Lulabelle said, there's a support group for everything. Cut off for me will be 8 pm or right after dinner if it's a late night. If I haven't eaten by 10, I just won't. Goal for August, starting on 8/9/10: 20 out of 23 days. That leaves room for late date nights :happy:

    8 me/1 snacks

    Glad I had my alarm set on my watch or I would have done mindless eating without even thinking about it.

    Hello everyone.
    I'm back. I just can't seem to keep it together. One thing goes wrong and throws me off completely. My back has been out for over 2 weeks so, since I can't exercise, I avoid mfp and the scale. Stupid I know. Also, I can't take Aleve or Advil without eating a lot right before so that has wreaked havoc with this challenge. But I'm going to try again before I find that I can't leave the house because nothing fits.:sad:
    So, tonight, August 11, will be my Day 1 of no late night snacking. Thanks for your patience with my comings and goings.

    9 me/2 snacks

    So busy yesterday that I didn't eat dinner. So by the time kids had snack at 10, so did I. But tonight is a new night.

    Zaza - Sorry to hear about your back. I know you were successful last night. Maybe getting a prescription of ibuprofen as opposed to over-the-counter might be better as it packs a punch without hurting your belly.

    Thanks lulabellewoowoo for the support and encouragement. you were right - I did make it through last night. I debated with myself because I was so thirsty and just wanted a sip of anything other than water, but I stuck to the water thanks to this challenge,
    So 1 for me!!

    Zaza -It's always good to see your post. Sorry about your back though. It sounds like a bummer. :ohwell: Yeah on the first night, on to the second! :drinker:

    Me 9 vs Snacks 2 (It was tough though since I was at my daughters and the brownies she made were calling for me)

    I so need this. I am a horrible snacker. I don't know when my cut off time should be since I stay up so late. Not for any reason really other than I hate sleeping. But if i stay up late then I get hungry and create stomach acid which sucks. I guess this means I will be doing two healthier things for myself. Cutting off eating after hummm, I guess 7:30, and going to bed early...12:30 being the latest. Well I haven't snacked tonight so does that mean I have one win under my belt? I'm gonna say yes. So I guess that's Me -1 Snacks - 0. :happy:

    Hi i am in, i am making 8pm, my cut of point and thinking back the past few days i am 3 / 0 to snacks cant remember for sure past then though, but i have a surprise party tonight with food and it does not start until 7.30, so i am going togo up for one plate of food, and thats it, no nipping back for seconds, or munching on things when i walk past the table, and then i have another tomorrow, buts thats earlier at 6 so i should have eaten by then,
