    I do have the mental power to say "no". It was just something I never really bothered with doing. No I didn't binge, but snacked on cookies cause I wanted to.
    It was this thread that got me thinking differently about my snacking habit.
    The logging helps me stay on my mental track.

    I used to think that I couldn't control LNS. I believed what I thought. Then I changed my thoughts. I told myself that I could control it. That was in Early August. Thoughts are powerful tools. I changed my thoughts and changed the habits of a lifetime. Since then LNS has only won once.

    If I can do it, anyone can. Believe you can do this. Tell yourself often that you can. Your subconscious will do the rest.

    Give it a try! What have you got to lose?

    Welcome to all our newbies. :)

    I didn't set my goals. 4pm and 9pm are my danger times (though 4pm isn't technically late night!)
    ** healthy max 200 cal snack at 4pm
    ** finish daily intake by 7pm, 7 nights a week
    ** treat allowed 2 nights a week within calorie limits

    Glad I made it last night. It was hard as I had to work until midnight. But managed with chewing gum.

    I need this one soooo much. Soon after dinner (I'm not hungry) my mind starts nagging about something to snack on. I'm going for 5 out of 7 days starting today!

    Went a whole week and no snacking. Still get my sweet cravings, but the decaf tea is hitting the spot after 7.

    Hi,
    I love how there are so many variations here. It makes me feel hopeful. As a newbie I'll try:
    Only fruit after 9 pm on 6/7 nights a week. October, here we come!
