    I am a newbie but this is a great idea. I do the majority of my eating from 9pm to 1am. I am going to finish eating for the evening before 9am, no snacking. Do you think if a person doesn't fall asleep until 2 or 3am that their body needs an additional meal between 7pm and 3am?

    Good question depends on your calorie intake throughout day I would guess. I would love to hear from those who may know real amswer

    I'm new to this thread, but have been tracking since a week ago so I know my streak :)

    Goals: I am allowed to late-night eat as long as I stay under calorie count! Normally by this time of night that means a piece of fruit or a tiny treat. My problem is the late-night bingeing. So for me, this is a late-night bingeing streak.

    I'm doing this at the moment. Have been for the past week not eating after 7.15pm. my work break when it's finished and when I get home from work I don't eat until early next morning for a wholesome breakfast. Sometimes before doing this method I used to eat four main meals a day which is not necessary . Bad habits. So I've done 13 nights in a row . So. Me: 13 LNS: 0

    I didn't do too bad last night (Sunday) but Friday and Saturday night were pitiful, as @freakymistkd said, mindless eating during commercial breaks is my downfall. The TV never goes off in my house, my DH is incapable of going more than 10 minutes without the mindless noise of the TV in the background (I've tried turning it off after he goes to sleep, he wakes immediately and complains). So lots of TV watching going on and many opportunities for mindless grazing. I would go to bed earlier and therefore skip the additional temptation, but I have to stay up to help him with his medications and to get him to bed at night. If I don't, he will sit and sleep in his wheelchair.... of course, when he does that I feel really guilty but I do enjoy the peace & quiet of no TV in the bedroom! When he sleeps in the bed, the TV is on (low volume but still audible) and I have to sleep with my phone earplugs in and a blanket over my face to block out the flashing light.
