    ill just say that meal timing has no effect on weight gain, so im assuming you mean that if you eat after 6 you binge and overeat

    try brushing your teeth, or chewing gum. the mint seems to help with hunger. but if its really that hard to avoid eating after 6 then try eating less during the day and opting for food you know you can control yourself with after 6

    I save 150-200 calories of my daily intake to give myself something to eat at night otherwise I go over my count too.

    Same here. I always budget an evening snack into my calories. Especially ice cream when I can make it fit.

    I know I like to have a snack around 8-9pm and a piece of fruit won't do. I love ice cream!! I save some calories and have a Outshine frozen fruit bar because it satisfies my cravings for ice cream and is low calorie

    calories in calories out. I burn more than I eat. It takes -3,500 calories to lose a pound. so as many banked burned calories per day is what gives a weight loss. Time of day or night should not affect a weight loss in general. Its a process for sure. Two years at this and still have about 60 pounds to lose. There no secret to weight loss. For me its a lifestyle change. I wish you the best. I try and read a positive quote everyday and remind myself every day we are getting closer to our goals. My motto is You got to move it to lose it!

    If i'm hungry I eat. I just try to stay within my calorie limits. It really doesnt matter what time you eat. Personally if I stopped eating at 6 I would binge on breakfast because I would be starving.
