    I'll try this too, great idea! Anyone have some strategies for staying motivated at night? At almost any point after 8pm I find myself susceptible to a case of the "*kitten* its" and in a split second will give up on the calorie counting for some wine/beer/chips/anything else that destroys a good day of healthy eating. During the day I feel good and motivated but when the sun goes down something happens...Anyone else? Any way around it?


    It helps me if I have a later dinner, I'm less incline to start snacking.

    This sounds like a good idea. Its certainly my struggle (plus weekend big family dinners) as i grew up allways having bedtime snacks as part of the family ritual..

    Do you find that this makes you think twice before you snack.

    Even with our Blackhawks winning the Stanley cup last night (YooHoo!), I managed to have fun, celebrate, and not go over my calories! B)

    I definitely have a problem with late night snacking. I work 2pm-10pm, and do not receive a break. I'm aloud to eat on the clock if I have a free minute. Summer is our peak season, and sometimes it's so busy that I do not get a chance to eat at all durning my shift. I find myself starving and wanting to binge after work. I absolutely need to break this horrible cycle.

    I dropped another 3 pounds this week and this challenge definitely has a lot to do with it. I'm now down 95!

    Wouldn't late night eating be different for someone who works 2d shift?

    Late to the party but am in for rest of the month. This is one of the lifestyle changes I need to make.
