NO MORE LATE NIGHT SNACKING -- MAY 2019

For the newbies, here's what it's all about: if you feel like you're self-sabotaging by munching/binging after dinner or like you're doubling your in-calories at night :/ , then join us in fighting late night snacking :wink:!

How this goes:
- each of us decides what late night snacking means to them (could be either binging, if you're inclined to it or simply eating anything at all after a certain time; some may find that having a healthy snack after dinner is perfectly alright and be upset only when they go overboard)
- we post by the formula: Me: X vs. LNS: Y, where X is "how many evenings you stuck to it" and Y "the times late night snacks won"
- additionally, you may want to add a * to the latest number.
- feel free to also post streaks of how many days you've managed to be free of late night snacking

It's as simple as that. Or as complicated :wink: , as you will discover. Nevertheless, the persistence and good results of some of our "old" members (and some people keep coming back) show that the battle is worthwhile! :smile:

Welcome!

    Thank you so much for this, @lamlam2013 :flowerforyou: Been wondering if you lovely people kept this going...
    I was IFing last month, so not eating past 8 pm would have been too much.
    Past days I noticed a tendency to binge, so I might get back here. :wink:

    Keep this going, you're all doing great! :flowerforyou:

    Thanks for setting this up - great idea.
    I tend to start the day well and then get into the mindset of having earned an after dinner 'treat' too often. For me LNS would be sugary/carb foods after dinner.

    What a great idea. Day 1 for me then. LNS seem to win every time so it will be great to know that others are struggling and winning. thanks for the motivation

    I'm so glad I found this! I'm going to start today, I really struggle with late night snacking especially with high calorie junk food. I'm hoping this will help keep me accountable.
