Say "NO" to Late Night Snacking in June 2014

"Tired of self-sabotaging by munching after dinner? Upset that you double your in-calories at night? Then it's not just me . To get some help (or inspire us by your good example), please join us in this challenge.

We're usually fixing a cut-off time, past which only non-caloric things are allowed (unsweetened tea or water). Yet, we're not that strict: you may allow yourself a handful of almonds, if you're able to stop at that. Figure out what fits you and start counting... .

We go by the formula:
Me: "number indicating how many evenings you stuck to it"
LNS: "number of times late night snacks won"

Example: Me: 2 - LNS: 0 indicates I won the first two nights.

Some people also add a * to the latest number. In the example, that would be
Me: 2 - LNS: 1*
if LNS won the 3rd night.

It's as simple as that. Or as complicated, as you will discover. Nevertheless, the persistence and good results of some of our "old" members (and some people keep coming back) show that the battle is worthwhile .

Welcome!

    Didn't have a chance to log in last night...had a sleep study done. NOT a lot of fun and it was inconclusive. The tech said I'll probably have to come back for another one...UGH!

    I am so proud of you! And so grateful that you've kept this thing going! Thank you so much! :flowerforyou:

    I've had another baby at the beginning of the year and currently losing some weight, so I don't feel ready for this challenge yet. However, I might pop in again soon :wink:.

    :heart:
