Do you find yourself searching for something to snack on after dinner? Do you make healthy choices all day and right before bed you decide to go ahead and have a spoon or two of ice cream, a cookie, chips, etc.?
For some odd reason, this happens almost every night and you want it to STOP.
If this sounds like you, join us so we can support one another to beat late night snacking!
Take either dinner or a cut-off time to be the last time you eat for the day, after that time, you may have tea and water only.
Tally your progress daily for a monthly total.
For Example:
Me: 22 ~ LNS: 9
You may join at ANYTIME. You don’t have to be successful every day; you just have to do your best. We’re not perfect and we all have non-successful days but the goal is to NOT GIVE UP! And keep posting to help encourage the rest of us

I did this last night but only out of necessity. I have the diabeetus and my blood sugar dropped to 43. I guess I took a little too much long acting insulin.0

You just did.
Unfortunately, as life gets busy, the group starts strong and tends to dwindle. So in addition to your new found resolve to control your late night eating, keep posting. Us oldies but goodies need support too :drinker:0 -

Although I think I stopped eating by my cutoff, I was eating mindlessly all night for no good reason, so this time I'm giving it to LNS. But I will conquer tonight.0 -

Thanks for the September Group! I've been sooo busy moving into my new place, and now with the start of school, but it's been easy to tally the last few days, because with the exception of my mini-vaca, I've been totally on track!0 -

Looks like I'm going to watch this from the side this month.
In fact, I won't give up, cos I don't see the point in giving up - I mean, every night I do the right thing counts! and better have a slice of something, then the whole loaf!
However, I don't see the point in recording failure after failure, as this might discourage others.
I hope to get on the right track and come back soon.
On a good note: I started logging again! 0 -

Dew - As far as discouraging US, just having you around is what's important. If recording the "non-success" is dragging YOU down, then yes, step back. But when some of us have "non-success", it's more encouraging to see someone else who had the same problem but is still plugging along towards that one night of success.
Great job on the logging. I am just starting to log again too. Those "just one little bite" are catching up with me.0
