Oops I did it again......and again..........and again......e

I am a serial night eater. I know I am not the only one. My willpower will last me for a few days say like 4 or 5. Then it happens.... 8pm and my fiance is asleep on the couch to tired to say Emily are you sure you want to do that, then my mind says......*emily you should eat those almonds in there you want something salty* after that *emily now you need something sweet cause that was too salty* and then *Mmmm melted cheese on a tortilla* and then *definitely need something else sweet now* well you get the idea, BAM downward spiral of chaotic eating and shame. Now I know all the advice and I have tried it all, Gum, Water, veggies, popsicles, brush your teeth ......well short of wiring my jaw shut nothing consistently works. The thing that really irks me is that I am a super super healthy eater and do great ALL DAY.....just to F#@$ it up that night. So I take the calories off the next day and eat less is it horrible to do this? Will this completely screw up my metabolism, or is it ok since I over did it the night before? I don't overeat every night mostly just every 6 days or so.
