    i save about 100 or so calories for each night just in case. If i get hungry I will have a piece of fruit. If i dont, i lost another 100 calories towards my goal.

    I eat carrots or sugar snap peas and hummus. That always satisfies my late night cravings

    They're super yummy! I'm not one for veggies but they're sweet and crunchy. They take the place of chips for me :)

    I'm like this I can go all day but night is hard ... I've recently started going for a walk in the evening to clear my head and as an added boost of being active then having a large glass of water when I get back I find that helps to satisfy then I'm usually tired enough to fall asleep so don't think about it aha

    What I do isn't as satisfying as what the others do but it works for me. I drink a lot of water, to the point where I actually feel full. I work overnights so I'm up all night without eating, just water.

    Try looking into keto. Really effective way to lose weight while still feeling full the whole time :)

    Don't waste any calories on things you don't love to eat. :)

    I have school of decaf green tea with 1 sweetener. It's sweet enough to curb my craving and feels like a treat. It's my late night me time when o just sit and enjoy my tea- nothing else going on except relaxing.

    I sometimes have a bad habit of not eating a whole lot during the day and eat too much at night. How many calories are you taking in daily? You can add me and I can give you some more insight.

    Do you eat your tea in front of the television/IPad, or read while eating? If so, try doing nothing but eating while your eating, and consciously chew your food more. It is very easy to not mentally register a meal if you are tuneed into the telly rather than the act of eating.
    Good luck with your journey!
