SAY "NO" TO LATE NIGHT SNACKING -- Jan 2019

    Is there a problem with late night snacking if you have already calculated that into your allotted calories for the day? I eat two pieces of reduced fat cheese every night before bedtime (140 total calories). Is it worse to have calories later at night than say...two hours earlier? Just curious.

    140 cal is not what we call late night snacking here - we refer to uncontrolled and high calorie snacking. Cheese is not increasing your insulin level, as far as I know, so it's not a problem at all. You just avoid having a growling stomach that won't let you sleep right. So perfectly fine, @CindyJNC1963

    I was strong! Maybe too strong, since I woke up in the middle of the night hungry... Might be the 1/2 grapefruit I ate last... Well, it happens :neutral:

    I did eat after dinner, but I didn't go over calories (surprisingly), so...not a bad start.

    Doesn't cheese give you funny dreams?

    My goal is to not binge on chips or candy after dinner. I already ate real food so these are just cravings that are not necessary or helpful to my body. With that said, I lost too my favorite sour strips from Buc-ees the last two nights lol! Now, the strips are gone. Good. :D

    This challenge is a big one for me, as I stress eat after my kids go to bed. 😬
