    I try not to bring anything into my house that will tempt me. If I want something, I have to go out and get it, usually then I'm too lazy to do so or not safe. :p

    I know it's hard living with others. I had my daughter for 24 years. Try to buy stuff that you don't really like. It might help. :)

    I can't seem to reply to comments - can't find the button, but wanted to say I agree with the comments above re: one bite leads to a second. I always think I will just have .... and then before your know it I'm up for more. Definitely a problem for me. This challenge is great as it helps me not give in to the one bite :-)

    Ok, I'm officially doing this. I am so motivated early in the day. Then life hits. I forget about the challenge and forget to even log in. I really need some motivation and this helps! All the comments have been very helpful. I think I will use the hot tea idea. I always feel happy and pampered when I have one anyway. I'm such an emotional eater at night. I really think I do it also to stay awake to have more time to myself at the end of the day. So,

    This is a huge accomplishment for me! Went to bed hungry but it felt so good to be in control.

    Difficult last night as we visited some friends to play cards. Stuck to my two glasses of wine which I planned for and was within my daily calorie intake and did not eat any of the snacks that were made available. Knowing I would be reporting this morning helped me to say "No thank you". :-)

    Thank you to those who set up this challenge.

    and all the commercials in tv are about food :-I

    found good thought though: "I will not feel deprived, when I turn down junk food/LNS; I will feel empowered that I made healthy choice"

    my choice to be healthy :-)

    Awesome job! Great planning with the wine! You stuck to your calorie goal but still remained social, didn't feel deprived. :)

    I know. It's a tough time. Great quote to think about during those times!

    I like the idea of a tea to give you comfort during the long evening of no snacks. I heard oolong and dandelion are good for you. Am going to try.

    Can anyone tell me how I can reply to someone's post. I only see buttons to encourage (which is great), but I noticed others can respond to a previous post, and I'm not sure how to do this
    Thanks,

    I need to join this challenge.... after dinner snacking/binging is causing me to fail at my weight loss efforts. I do great at tracking and controlling my eating during the day.... but from about 8pm-11pm I lose it and have gained back about 1/3 of the 90lbs I've lost. Like others have stated if it eat that "one bite" after dinner, I feel as if I can't stop until I'm stuffed.... if I can avoid that first bite I feel like I'll be ok! Wish me luck! I need it...

    Committing to posting to this challenge each day has really helped me avoid that first bite. I started Dec 2nd and have not given in since beginning the challenge. I don't remember ever going that long without LNS. Good luck, you can do it.
