    Me: 4 LNS: 1*

    Baby has been cluster feeding for hours...and I am ravenous! I am sticking to healthy stuff, and eating due to hunger, so I don't feel bad about it.

    I am debating as to whether I should count this as LNS, since my main goal with this challenge is to avoid my tendency to snack on junk food at the end of the day. What do you think?

    If it's healthy and your within your calorie goal, I say you can count it for sure!
    I agree, Grandma Jackie

    What counts as "Late night"? After 19.00?

    If so

    Me: 3
    LNS: 2 (yesterday i had some cucumber and carrotsticks with some sour cream as dipping around 21.00)

    Hi Jasenfors! BRae325 is right. Your late night is whatever you want it to be. I, too, think the veggies and sour cream is fine, especially if you have the cals for it. I tried to set a clock hour, e.g. 1900, to stop my late night snacking, but for me that sometimes doesn't work, especially if it's on a weekend and I haven't had dinner yet. Your rules. This is just encouragement to help all of us curb those late night munchies. :)

    It seems like I throw out the rule book when we have company. Happily, I'm back on track for today!

    Peace,

    Jeff ;)
    Having company is hard when it comes to staying on track. Totally understandable!

    Late dinner tonight and late workout. I had 50 gr raw pineapple and 1 tsp dried cranberries after workout at 10pm. Hope it won't be counted as late night snack :s

    Your rules for late night snacking is up to you. Whatever you feel is right. :)

    I'm glad this popped back up because I forgot to star it for reminders.

    Thanks for the advice! I am not going to include a healthy snack (such as the red pepper strips I just ate) as LNS. I am trying to stop the mindless chip and popcorn eating!

    So, here is my revised score:

    Me: 6 LNS: ZERO!!!

    This thread is so simple, yet so effective!

    You decide your own rules! Each of us has a different goal and different challenges. Set up your own personal parameters, and let the games begin :)

    Today has been 10 months since joining MFP and I hit 90 pounds lost at my weigh-in today. This thread has certainly been a big help for keeping my nights on track and helping me take it to the next level. Watchout 100, here I come!

    For those of you that are struggling with your score, take note, there is still plenty of time in the month to get things turned around - you can do it!
    Make sure you aren't setting up unrealistic or worse, unnecessary rules for yourself. Other than that, you just need to decide and then do it!
    The success of this is almost entirely a mental thing. Your brain is a powerful weapon, you just need to take control of it and tell it what you want. If you truly decide, it won't let you fail. You are in control!
