Late nights

Hi everyone I'm looking for advice/help/motivation. One of the problems for me is working late nights. I work a 4pm to midnight shift. I do great with tracking during the day and staying in my goal range but when it comes to work I eat my dinner and then a few hours later I'm bored and I wanna snack, it's only about 9pm. I have hours left!!! And I also want to/ or do snack. It's not like I bring them, it's co-workers bring in snacks for everyone, left overs, or the dreadful vending machine. How do I stop?

    Pack snacks, watch servings, keep busy. Might want to save some extra calories for the night time snacks. Good luck:)

    Gum and Water! I completely understand. I always get the urge to snack when I'm working and if you look in my office drawer and purse you will find water bottles, gum wrappers and packs. It's just a mental thing to be chewing I guess so the gum helps and then the water I guess fills me up. Also a few healthy vegetables won't hurt. Celery, carrots and so on are great low carb snacks. Be strong and let your coworkers know you're trying to eat healthy.

    How do you stop eating and snacking? Dont! Just choose better, more filling options
