Oh my gosh... at night when I am studying, I am used to snacking. So I am trying to stop the snacking. New idea- chew gum. Worked fine until I basically went through a pack a night (not really, but close enough). Any ideas how to fight these things?

    nonfat cottage cheese works for me...plus it is slow digesting protein so it feeds you all nignt...a good thing

    Totally my problem too. And I have no idea how to stop this. I seriously am trying to change my schedual around so I go to bed earlier and get up earlier. I never really get those overwhelming urges in the morning. Plus, who wants to START the day out badly? So, besides that, I have no advice because I have yet to quit the late night snacking. Actually, right now there is a piece of cake waiting for me...

    Maybe tonight is the night I say NO! Ha.... Good luck!

    Im a snacker, so what i do is give myself more calories for snacks from my lunch and dinner, choosing healthier snacks and stopping a few hours before bed. like light yogurt, 100 calorie packs, rice cakes(which i actually really like) fresh fruits, veggies. just making sure i have some water around most of the time my urges for snacks is because im thirsty.

    Good Luck!!
